This panel includes serum iron (measures circulating iron), ferritin (indicates iron stores), and transferrin saturation (shows how much iron is bound to transferrin). It may also assess total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) for a full picture.
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).
The Iron Status Panel is a blood test that evaluates your body’s iron levels and storage to diagnose conditions like iron deficiency anemia or iron overload. It helps identify issues related to growth, energy, and oxygen transport. Your doctor may order this panel for symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, or pale skin. The test catches imbalances early. 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
