Phlebotomy Service (Brighton & Hove)

The Community Phlebotomy Service provides domiciliary visits to housebound patients and non-housebound patients through our pre-appointed services for GP referrals only. Patients need to be registered with a Brighton and Hove GP before we can take your blood.  This service is not available for referrals from any other source, eg consultants.
