Private vs NHS: what’s the difference?

Both routes are valuable. Private testing focuses on speed, convenience, and breadth of choice:

  • Fast access: same‑day slots; many results within 24 hours.
  • Choice of panels: pick the exact tests you want, or let us guide you.
  • Time with a clinician: add a results review for tailored advice.

NHS services remain essential for ongoing care and treatment pathways. Use private testing when you need speed, specific panels, or convenience in central London.
