About this test

This test measures 10 markers from a venous blood sample: platelets, red and white blood cell counts, haemoglobin, and the different types of white blood cell (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils). These readings are commonly used to assess general blood health and can help flag issues such as anaemia or infection, though this test does not diagnose any condition on its own.

Within the full blood count tests we compare it against, this one is priced at the group median of £85, but with fewer markers than most: Blue Horizon Medicals offers 13 markers for £54.25 and Medichecks offers 15 markers for £59, both cheaper and broader than this test. Medichecks' Advanced Clotting Blood Test (£99, 19 markers) and Thalassaemia Screen Blood Test (£129, 18 markers) go further still, at a higher price. This mix is reflected in a value for money score that sits roughly in the middle of the range.

clarity and documentation scores highly here, since the listing sets out a full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options and the sample type. It scores lower on collection convenience, because it needs a venous draw at a clinic with results in around 8 days, and on results and follow-up, since there is no doctor review as standard.

Who is it for?

This suits you if you want a straightforward look at your red cells, white cells and platelets, for example as general reassurance or before adding it to one of Bluecrest's health packages. If you specifically want the broadest or cheapest option in this category, Medichecks' Full Blood Count Test (15 markers) costs less at £59, and Blue Horizon Medicals' equivalent (13 markers) is cheaper still at £54.25. This test may still suit you if you would rather visit a Bluecrest venue in person for the blood draw.

How it works

This is a blood test taken by venous draw at a Bluecrest venue. The sample is sent to the lab for analysis of the 10 markers, with results expected in around 3 to 8 days. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard.
