What is the Metabolic Syndrome Check blood test?
Our private Metabolic Syndrome Check blood test is designed for those looking to proactively understand key markers related to metabolic health. You can book this test directly online without needing a GP referral.
This specialised panel measures important adipokines and related markers associated with metabolic syndrome. It's important to remember that this test measures specific biological markers; a clinician will interpret these results to provide context for your health.
Your small blood sample will be taken at our clinic in Dartford, Kent, and sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. You'll receive your results, reviewed by a clinician, in your secure online portal within 2–5 working days. You can then share these with your GP if you wish.

Metabolic Syndrome Check — frequently asked questions
Do I need to fast before the Metabolic Syndrome 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.
