Frequently Asked Questions
Tests such as fasting blood sugar and lipid profiles usually require a 10- to 12-hour fast. Water is drinkable as it is. For other tests, you don’t need to fast. Follow any directions given to you by your lab or doctor.
Most routine haematology and biochemistry results are available in a few hours. Microbiology cultures take a little bit longer, two to three days, because the organisms need time to grow. Histopathology reports usually take 3-5 working days, as tissues need to be processed.
Reliability is ensured through quality control at all stages, proper sample handling, well-maintained analysers, and skilled technologists who validate results before release. Our internal controls and external proficiency testing validate the consistency and reliability of the results.
Yes, we do facilitate home sample collection for patients who find it difficult to come to the hospital. Our phlebotomists are mobile, using portable equipment and following the same standards for handling samples as the hospital laboratory.
An abnormal result is not necessarily something serious. Your doctor will discuss your findings with your symptoms, examination and any other test results. Do not make any assumptions and arrange a meeting with your treating doctor before you change treatment.
