About this test

This panel builds on a general wellness check with 27 markers in total, covering liver function, kidney health, bone health, iron studies, inflammation (CRP and ESR), blood salts such as sodium and potassium, vitamin D, and a Covid-19 IgG antibody test. It is intended to give a wide view of health after a Covid-19 infection.

Against the 21 tests in this comparison group, 27 markers is below the 40-marker median, so several peers go deeper for less money. Bluecrest Wellness's Advanced Biochemistry Profile covers 26 markers, almost the same depth, for £90. Medichecks' Advanced Essential Blood Test covers 43 markers, considerably more, for £135. At £595, this test is priced 274% above the £159 group median.

The listing is clear, with a published description, marker list, sample type and turnaround, and results are typically available within one working day. It scores lowest of the criteria on value for money given how it compares with the group, and it also loses marks on results and follow-up, since results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, and on collection convenience, since it requires a clinic-based venous draw.

Who is it for?

This could suit you if fast turnaround and a Covid-19 antibody result alongside a wide biochemistry panel matter more to you than price. On markers and cost together it is difficult to justify: Bluecrest Wellness's Advanced Biochemistry Profile covers almost the same 26 markers for £90, and Medichecks' Advanced Essential Blood Test covers considerably more, 43 markers, for £135, both a fraction of this test's £595.

How it works

A clinician takes a single venous blood sample at a Better2Know clinic. The sample is sent to the lab, with results typically available within one working day of arrival, shown in your secure online patient area. The fact sheet does not state that a doctor reviews every result as standard.
