Blood tests and health checks don't have to mean a trip to the lab and a long queue. With home sample collection, a trained phlebotomist comes to you, and your results land securely on your phone. Here's how it works in Abuja.
1. Book the test you need
Choose your test — a full blood count, malaria or typhoid screen, a wellness panel, or a specific test your doctor requested — and pick a time and your area. If you're not sure which test you need, a quick online consultation can point you in the right direction.
2. A phlebotomist comes to you
At the scheduled time, a trained professional arrives with sterile, single-use equipment and collects your sample safely at home or at your office. It usually takes just a few minutes.
3. Accredited-lab processing
Your sample is processed by an accredited diagnostic-lab partner. This is what keeps results reliable — the convenience of home collection with the rigour of a proper laboratory.
4. Results on your phone
Results are delivered securely and privately, often the same day. If anything needs explaining or acting on, a Doc2Go doctor can review them with you and recommend next steps — including a home visit if that's the right move.
A few tips before your test
- Some tests need fasting (no food for 8–12 hours). We'll tell you when you book.
- Stay hydrated — drinking water makes sample collection quicker and easier.
- Have any doctor's request or previous results handy so we test exactly what's needed.
