Three clear steps
Your test. A local blood draw. Your next step.
Choosing the test and collecting the sample are different parts of the process. Make sure your test order and appointment are both confirmed before attending.
Arrange your test
Explore the options through Goodbody and confirm which test is appropriate for you. Read the preparation instructions and check that a clinic blood draw is included or arranged.
Have your sample collected
Attend your confirmed blood draw appointment at Olya’s Trowbridge clinic. Bring the order information and any items requested in your booking instructions.
Understand what comes next
The sample is sent for laboratory testing. Follow the result-delivery and clinical-review arrangements for your chosen test, and discuss any concerns with the appropriate healthcare professional.
Understanding the service
What is phlebotomy?
Phlebotomy means collecting a blood sample, usually from a vein in the arm, for laboratory analysis. The blood draw is the sample-collection appointment; the selected test determines what the laboratory measures.
Olya’s local service is the blood draw and sample-collection part of the Goodbody journey. It is not a substitute for a GP consultation or an emergency medical service.
If you have new or persistent symptoms, speak to a healthcare professional about which investigations are appropriate instead of relying on a general wellness screen.
Our Goodbody partnership
Goodbody Wellness Limited is registered with the Care Quality Commission for diagnostic and screening procedures. This is a statement about Goodbody’s provider registration, not an inspection rating for Olya’s clinic.
Goodbody states that it uses UKAS-accredited laboratories. The relevant laboratory and testing arrangements should be confirmed for the service offered here.
Explore the options
Blood test categories
The following categories are included in the supplied partnership information. The exact tests available at this clinic, their suitability and what each includes need confirmation.
General health & wellness
A starting point for exploring the general-health testing options in Goodbody’s range. Check the individual test description rather than assuming it covers every aspect of health.
Hormone profiles
Explore hormone-testing options with the provider. Timing, preparation and suitability may depend on the particular test and your circumstances.
Men’s health
Review the available men’s-health panels and their individual marker lists. Ask the provider which option fits the question you want to investigate.
Women’s health
Review women’s-health testing options, including any test-specific timing requirements. Pregnancy and cycle-related questions should be discussed before booking.
Thyroid function
Explore Goodbody’s thyroid-testing options. Check which markers are included and how results will be interpreted alongside your symptoms and medical history.
Not sure which to choose?
Ask Goodbody or your own healthcare professional for advice about test selection. Olya can help with questions about the local appointment arrangements.
Before your appointment
A little preparation helps
Your test-specific instructions take priority. If anything is unclear, ask the provider before your appointment.
Check your instructions
- Fast only if your selected test requires it; follow the stated timing and rules about drinks.
- Do not stop or change prescribed medicines on your own. Ask the clinician responsible for them if instructions need clarification.
- Tell the clinician about medicines, relevant health conditions, allergies or previous difficulty with blood draws.
- Let the clinic know beforehand if you are worried about needles or have fainted during a blood test.
Plan your visit
- Have your booking confirmation and test-order details ready.
- Bring identification, a kit or paperwork only as requested in your appointment instructions.
- Wear clothing that makes your arm easy to access.
- Check the clinic location and access arrangements before setting off.
At the clinic
What happens during the blood draw?
A needle is used to collect a small blood sample into tubes for testing. You may feel a brief scratch. Tell the practitioner if you feel unwell or need a pause.
A dressing is usually applied afterwards. Some bruising or swelling can occur. Follow the aftercare advice given at your appointment.

A clear, unhurried appointment
Before collection, there should be time to check your test details, discuss relevant concerns and explain what will happen. Your questions matter, particularly if this is your first blood draw.
After your visit
Results should come with a clear next step
The laboratory testing and result-review arrangements depend on the test you order. Check the expected turnaround, how you will receive the report and which clinical support is included before paying.
Receiving your results
Keep your order confirmation and follow the provider’s result-delivery instructions. If the stated turnaround has passed, contact the service responsible for the report.
Do not assume that the local blood draw appointment includes a separate medical consultation or interpretation by Olya.
Understanding the report
Discuss results you do not understand with an appropriate healthcare professional. A result needs context; screening does not rule out every condition or replace care for symptoms.
Do not delay urgent medical help while waiting for a routine private test.

Your questions answered
Phlebotomy FAQs
Is phlebotomy the same as a blood test?
Phlebotomy is the collection of your blood sample. The blood test is the laboratory analysis requested for that sample. Make sure both your test order and sample-collection appointment are arranged.
How do I book at Olya’s Trowbridge clinic?
Start with the ordering and appointment steps above. Contact Olya if you need help with the local appointment arrangements.
Do I need a GP referral, or can I bring another provider’s kit?
Requirements vary by test and provider. Check before ordering; do not assume that an external kit or an NHS blood-test request can be used here.
Will I need to fast or change my medicines?
Follow the instructions for your chosen test. Some tests require fasting and others do not. Never change prescribed medication without advice from the clinician responsible for it.
What if I am nervous about needles?
Please tell the clinic in advance so the appointment can be discussed with you. Mention any previous fainting or difficulty with blood draws.
How long does an appointment take, and what does it cost?
The local appointment length and full fee breakdown will be shown in fees and practical details once confirmed. Check whether sample collection is included in your test purchase.
Can children or pregnant clients use this service?
Eligibility must be confirmed before booking; it should not be assumed from the availability of a test in the national catalogue.
When will I get results, and who explains them?
This depends on the selected test. Confirm the quoted turnaround and included clinical review when ordering. The results section will explain the local arrangements once approved.
What happens if the sample cannot be collected or tested?
The clinic and provider should explain the next step, including whether a repeat appointment or new kit is required.
Can I use a wellness blood test instead of seeing my GP?
No. A wellness test is not a replacement for a medical assessment of symptoms. Speak to a healthcare professional if you are unwell, and use urgent or emergency services when needed rather than waiting for a routine test.
