What is the Rapid Health Check blood test?
Our private Rapid Health Check blood test offers a comprehensive overview of your general wellbeing, making it a popular choice for those seeking a proactive health assessment. You can book this private blood test without needing a GP referral, offering convenient access to important health insights.
This extensive health check measures 37 key markers across several vital areas. It provides insights into your Full Blood Count, Heart Health, Liver Function, Kidney Health, Bone Health, and Diabetes Health. It's important to understand that this test measures specific markers in your blood; these measurements are then interpreted by a clinician to help assess your health status.
Your small blood sample will be taken at our clinic in Dartford, Kent, and sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for processing. Your results will be reviewed by a clinician and made available in your secure MyScanHub online portal within 2–5 working days. You can book your appointment directly online with a simple one-off payment, and no GP referral is required.

Rapid Health Check — frequently asked questions
Do I need to fast before the Rapid Health Check?
Yes — we recommend fasting for 8–10 hours beforehand (water is fine), as recent food and drink can affect cholesterol and glucose readings.
How quickly will I get my results?
Most results are ready within 2–5 working days and are uploaded to your secure MyScanHub portal once reviewed by a clinician.
How is the blood sample taken?
A trained phlebotomist takes a small venous blood sample from your arm at our Kent clinic. It's quick and carried out in a private, comfortable setting.
What happens if a result is outside the normal range?
Any result outside the usual reference range is clearly highlighted in your report. A blood test doesn't diagnose on its own, so we recommend discussing flagged results with a clinician — you can add a GP consultation to talk them through.
Do I need a GP referral to book?
No. You can book this blood test directly online — no GP referral is required. It's a one-off payment with no subscription.
