This check includes fasting glucose (current blood sugar level) and HbA1c (average blood sugar over 2-3 months). It helps diagnose and monitor diabetes or prediabetes.
Sample collection: A small blood sample is taken (usually serum tube) by a finger-prick kit at home or in one of our UK clinics. Our kit includes everything needed; simply return the sample in the pre-paid envelope. Results include a personalised doctor’s interpretation.
Age restriction: Adults 18+ only (guardian consent required for minors).
Diabetes Health Checks are essential screenings for blood sugar levels. They measure glucose and HbA1c to identify diabetes, prediabetes, or insulin resistance. Your doctor may order this for routine monitoring or symptoms like increased thirst, frequent urination, or slow-healing wounds. Swift Blood Tests processes samples rapidly, with results and a doctor’s report typically within a few days.

First Class Service
Friendly and helpful staff. Arranged an appointment for the next day at home. Joanne arrived for my appointment to take the required blood tests and delivered them to my local hospital within 35 minutes. I cannot recommend Swift Blood Tests highly enough.
I can’t praise this company enough! Jo arrived on time and was so lovely, easy to talk to and efficient. The whole process from booking the appointment ( and getting one for the following day) to receiving a text that the bloods had arrived at the hospital was really impressive. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use this service again-
This is an amazing service which I heard about through a recommendation and I will 100% be recommending to friends. I booked in late one even and Joanne came early the next morning. I work in London so this was perfect to work around unusual business hours. Joanne was so efficient and friendly. Thank you!
Organised a visit for my disabled elderly mother. Trying to get a local appointment through the NHS swift queue system would have meant several weeks wait. This service was booked online within minutes and the service was prompt, efficient and very professionally carried out by a friendly nurse
