Before your appointment
The haematology team checks blood results and medicines. Discuss local anaesthesia and any additional comfort or sedation needs.
Time, hospital stay & appointments
Times are planning guides, not national averages or guaranteed schedules. They reflect published provider examples and patient guidance. The treating team confirms the individual plan, time needed near the clinic and fitness to travel. Waiting lists are not included.
- Procedure or course duration
- Allow time for local anaesthesia, sampling and observation; the service confirms the slot.
- Hospital stay
- Usually outpatient, without an overnight stay for the test itself. Preparation or additional tests may extend attendance.
- Visits and repeat attendance
- Plan one attendance for the test and a results discussion. The referral assessment and any repeat or additional tests may require separate visits; ask whether results can be discussed remotely.
- Recovery and travel planning
- Keep the site as instructed and report persistent bleeding or infection signs. Results may arrive in stages because specialist laboratory tests differ.
