FYI - BLOOD TESTS AT BOWERY

If you are asked by a clinician to have a blood test, and would like to attend a South PCN Phlebotomy Clinic (located at The Bowery Medical Centre) please speak to a member of our reception team to book in.

The PCN are unable to book these appointments and do not operate a drop-in clinic. Patients who attend the clinic without an appointment will be turned away.

Please also ensure to collect your bloods form from reception prior to your appointment as you will not be seen without it.

These appointments can be booked via the reception at Spinney or calling us on 01744 758 999.
