Blood Tests > Platinum Blood Profile
Introducing our Platinum Blood Profile package! It offers a plethora of essential health data that empowers you to proactively monitor your wellness and gain deeper insights into your body’s cues, symptoms, and signals.
Discover the key to understanding your health like never before, ensuring you stay ahead with the knowledge you need to thrive.
We are committed to assisting our patients in taking control of their health through quick and affordable blood testing and doctor analysis.
Diseases such as kidney disease, liver dysfunction, thyroid issues, diabetes, anaemia, and illnesses related to high cholesterol, among others, can all be detected early through blood testing.
Our Platinum Blood Profile examines vital systems and markers, identifies signs of disease, and identifies common causes of low energy and fatigue, helping you maintain your well-being.
*Please note that HbA1C results continue to be delayed nationwide and turnaround time is currently 3 days. This is part of our platinum profile and diabetes screen. Update: 11.11.2024*
Our Platinum Blood Profile provides comprehensive insights crucial for informed lifestyle and medical decisions, significantly lowering the likelihood of developing serious illnesses. This package encompasses a comprehensive array of essential blood tests designed to thoroughly assess your overall health status, enabling early detection of potential issues and proactive management of your health and vitality.
By detecting potential health issues early, it not only facilitates prompt treatment but also offers assurance regarding good health. This proactive approach ensures robustness, enabling you to take proactive steps towards maintaining optimal health and vitality.
Regular blood screenings offer critical benefits for your health by enabling early detection of potential health issues, ensuring prompt intervention and treatment to improve outcomes and prevent complications.
These screenings provide valuable insights into cholesterol levels, blood sugar, kidney function, and more, allowing healthcare providers to identify and manage risk factors. This proactive approach enables you to make lifestyle adjustments before they escalate.
Ultimately, regular blood screenings support longevity and a higher quality of life by addressing health concerns early and promoting proactive health management.
Total cholesterol tests/fingerprick tests aren’t beneficial because your total cholesterol level is the sum of your “good” and “bad” cholesterol. A high “good” cholesterol level is a positive finding as this is cardioprotective.
We are interested in your “bad” or “LDL” cholesterol and triglycerides levels. Our profile breaks down your cholesterol into good and bad levels and checks your triglycerides. This gives us an accurate view of whether your cholesterol levels are normal and the extent to which you need to make lifestyle changes or consider medication.
The full blood count checks for signs of anaemia and other blood-related illnesses, issues with platelet count and signs of inflammation.
The blood profile looks at your kidney and liver function, showing signs of any issues requiring further investigation or lifestyle changes.
Low iron is a common cause of low energy and fatigue and contributes to other conditions. Our profile checks for serum iron level, ferritin and more.
These tests look for signs of diabetes. Your fasting glucose checks for your current sugar level, while HbA1C is a test that indicates your average blood sugar over the last three months. Diabetes is a silent disease until it becomes more serious, and many early signs can be missed, so routine testing gives you the best chance of reversing type II diabetes before it begins.
Vitamin D is the sunshine vitamin! Super crucial for many aspects of health, from healthy bones to skin to hair to energy and preventing aches and pains. Low vitamin D has also been linked through research to immune disorders. As we all live in a cold climate, it’s essential to ensure your vitamin D level is good.
Two vital aspects of good energy and well-being, testing for vitamin B12 and folate, helps check for one of the common causes of low energy and fatigue, as well as connections to other issues.
Our thyroid function screen includes T3, T4 and TSH testing. Thyroid dysfunction is the cause of multiple health issues and can start later in life.
Use our online booking engine or book your test by giving us a call.
On the online booking engine select the “appointment type” you need.
You will be seen by one of our friendly phlebotomists or trained clinicians.

It is recommended that you arrive fasting but well-hydrated. Fasting for at least 4-6 hours is advised for certain blood tests, making a morning appointment before breakfast an ideal choice. Alternatively, you can have a light breakfast and fast during the day, scheduling your appointment in the afternoon. Adequate hydration is crucial for safe blood-taking, so please ensure you drink plenty of water before your appointment.

Our Platinum Blood Profile testing consists of straightforward blood tests administered by a skilled and experienced phlebotomist or nurse. They will gently draw blood using a sterile needle, ensuring minimal discomfort and adhering to strict hygiene protocols. Your comfort and safety are our top priorities, and our trained professionals will guide you through the process with care and professionalism, ensuring that you feel at ease throughout the procedure.

Your results from the Platinum Blood Profile will be accessible within 24 hours. Each result undergoes a thorough review by a doctor before being delivered to you. If your results are within normal ranges, you will receive a notification along with your result. In the case of significant abnormalities, a doctor will personally contact you to discuss the findings and provide guidance on recommended next steps. Alternatively, you can choose to share your results with your GP for further consultation and care coordination.

As an international visitor, I was very grateful for the prompt attention to my request for an appointment. Dr Ali was respectful and empathetic in regard to my condition and suggested further treatment, which I was able to organise for the next day. Both offices I attended treated me appropriately and I would recommend Harley Street Health Walk-in Clinics to anyone visiting London who requires medical attention.Posted on Trustindex![]()

Highly recommend City Walk-In Clinic Really pleased with my experience at City Walk-In Clinic. I booked a female hormone test because I wanted some answers about a few symptoms I'd been having, and the whole process was straightforward. The staff were welcoming, friendly and didn't make me feel rushed at all. The blood test was quick, and they explained everything clearly before taking the sample. My results came back sooner than I expected, and it was reassuring to have everything presented in a way that was easy to understand. I'd definitely use the clinic again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a private female hormone test. Professional service, lovely staff and an all round positive experience.Posted on Google![]()

I had a private gp appointment yesterday as my feet have been swelling every day over the past few days. So I booked an appointment with Dr Heather. Dr Heather explained the possible causes of the swelling, including the heat that we are currently experiencing in London. Recommended further investigation if the swelling persists, to identify the underlying issue rather than just making assumptions.Posted on Google![]()

I have used City Walk In Clinic as my go to place for routine blood tests. My recent full health check gave my doctor some clues that i may be approaching my menopause era. So my doctor has recommended that i do some tests to find out if indeed i am entering perimenopause, as the symptoms are there. Will be having my tests in the next few weeks. So glad i had a full health check, because all these symptoms were driving me crazy.Posted on Google![]()

I attended The Harley Street Walk/in centre in the City recently. I was able to book my appointment the day before for a blood test at a time that suited me. The booking process was straightforward. The doctor that conducted the venous draw was efficient and very pleasant. I have never had such a painless venous draw and I have had many! My appointment was at 5pm and I had my results before 8 am the following day. I will be very happy to book my tests here in the future. Thank you.Posted on Google![]()

I wanted a cholesterol check up and chose this clinic because it seemed to offer a competitive price for a detailed report. And so it turned out to be. Received a prompt and professional service at a price that was significantly less than other nearby providers in central London. I have now used it twice and would definitely recommend.Posted on Yell![]()
