From today, Monday 6 October, all routine blood tests at Windsor House are moving to an appointment-only system using the SwiftQueue booking portal. This change has been introduced to reduce queues, improve patient comfort and experience, and provide more choice with early morning and late-afternoon slots.

Patients can now book, change or cancel their blood test appointments online using their NHS login. For those without internet access, a dedicated booking phone line is available on 01752 433040.

Some walk-ins will still be accepted during a short transition period, but Windsor House will become fully appointment-only in the coming weeks. Urgent or specialist blood tests will continue to take place at the Derriford Outpatients Department.
