Client journey

How it works.

A controlled route from panel selection to secure results, with preparation and limitations made clear before payment.

01

Choose your panel

Compare Essential, Advanced and Complete. The final analytes, price, preparation and expected turnaround will be shown before booking.

02

Book securely

Choose an available Manchester appointment, provide the required identity and contact details, review the terms and make payment through the confirmed booking system.

03

Prepare

Follow the panel-specific fasting and appointment instructions. Do not stop or change prescribed medicines unless an appropriate clinician tells you to.

04

Attend

Identity, consent and relevant collection information are checked before a trained professional takes and labels the venous sample.

05

Laboratory analysis

The sample follows the confirmed transport, stability and partner-laboratory pathway. Any sample problem or referral assay is handled under the published process.

06

Receive results

Results are released through the secure route confirmed before booking, with reference ranges, flags and limitations where provided.

07

Choose your next step

You may book the optional £99 clinician-led review. Urgent or significant findings follow the documented contact and escalation process.

What the service does not do

AK-LABS is not an emergency service. A blood panel does not replace examination, diagnosis or treatment from an appropriate healthcare professional. If you are seriously unwell or believe there is an immediate risk to life, call 999 or attend A&E. For urgent medical advice, contact NHS 111.
