    Has anybody had blood tests done with this company? They're cheaper than LetsGetChecked.

    Is this for STI checks?

    If so, same tests free with SH24.ie. If you have a positive result, they arrange free follow up with your local sexual health clinic.

    It's concerning that you're contemplating getting an external test in isolation. Suggests that you feel you're not being looked after properly?

    I'd be wary of these companies - not had any dealings with this specific one but colleagues have reported extremely poor follow up care.

    Have to agree, i'm a GP and anything abnormal on these bloods is sent back to your GP, this company wont follow up. Also, it's far more expensive than bloods are going to be in your GP, I had a patient pay over €200 for routine enough bloods that would have cost €30 with a €60 GP consultation which she had to pay anyway for interpretation.
