Phlebotomy (blood tests)

We hold blood test clinics at Royal Derby Hospital, Florence Nightingale Community Hospital, Queen's Hospital Burton, Samuel Johnson Community Hospital and Sir Robert Peel Community Hospital. 

We also provide local clinics around the community to help patients who may find it difficult to travel to our hospitals.

UHDB patients can now book themselves in for a blood test (opens in new window) > online at each of our five hospitals and local clinics. The booking system helps patients, their carers, and family members to plan their trip to a blood clinic, helping to reduce clinic waiting times and enabling patients to be seen much more quickly. 

Patients can also view the phlebotomy (blood test) clinics and opening times >.

The Phlebotomy service provided at both Samuel Johnson Community Hospital and Sir Robert Peel Community Hospital, is for patients who have had their bloods ordered by the Trust, and also for patients referred by their GP.

All patients who attend a clinic, having had their blood test requested by UHDB clinicians, will have been provided with a leaflet containing a link to book their next appointment online via Swiftqueue.
