Blood Tests
If you need a blood test, appointments are available at our Park and Wheal Northey sites. There is also some limited availability at Foxhole. For those patients unable to make normal opening hours, appointments will also be available at the Carlyon Road Health Hub between 08:00 and 09:30 Monday to Friday and between 17:00 and 19:30 Monday to Thursday. Appointments can be made by calling 01726 75555 or by booking online. Please note it is essential to make an appointment for a blood test.


Please inform the receptionist if you have been asked to make a fasting blood test appointment. This will ensure an early appointment is offered to you.

We provide some ‘on the day’ urgent blood tests to patients at the request of a doctor, as well as booked appointments and INR clinics.

​Blood test results are available online if you have a SystmOne online account, or after 2pm Monday to Friday by phoning 01726 75555.

MSU (Mid Stream Urine) Tests
We can only test Mid-Stream Urine Samples (MSUs) if they have been requested by one of our clinical staff. These samples should be brought into reception before 12:30 Monday to Friday. Please note that we are not able to process samples on a Saturday.
 
For women aged 16-65 you can take your urine sample to a local pharmacy as they may be able to issue you antibiotic treatment. Please visit your local pharmacy if you have two of the following symptoms:
  • Pain passing urine
  • Passing more urine at night
  • Cloudy urine
You will need to contact the surgery if you have any of the pharmacy exclusion criteria: pregnant, breastfeeding, previous UTI in the last 3 months, recurrent UTI (2 in the last 3 months, or 3 in the last 6 months), allergy to Nitrofurantoin, fever, vomiting, flu like symptoms, back pain, confusion, already on antibiotics, new vaginal discharge, diabetes, catheter, kidney, liver or lung disease.
Warfarin Monitoring (INR)
Our Warfarin monitoring (INR) clinics are held at Park, Wheal Northey and at the Carlyon Road Health Hub. You can book the appointments at whatever surgery site is most convenient. Booking is essential. More information can be obtained from the health care assistant when you attend for your next blood test.

Housebound patients who are requiring INR testing will have their blood taken as normal by the District Nursing Team.
