Six grouped panels covering more than twenty individual markers, from blood sugar and kidney function to liver enzymes, blood count, inflammation and calcium. All from one morning, fasted blood draw.
Blood sugar
Fasting Glucose. Your fasting blood sugar, a core metabolic marker.
Kidneys and electrolytes
U&E and Creatinine panel. Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Bicarbonate, Urea and Creatinine: how your kidneys and salt balance are doing.
Liver
Liver Function panel. Albumin, ALP, ALT, AST, Bilirubin, GGT, LDH and Total Protein: a full set of liver enzymes and proteins.
Blood count
Full Blood Count (FBC). Your red cells, white cells and platelets, for overall health.
Inflammation
C-Reactive Protein (CRP). A general marker of inflammation in the body.
Calcium
Calcium. An important mineral for bones, nerves and muscle function.
Your results come with an ODx report
With this panel you also receive an ODx Functional Health Report, which reads your results against optimal ranges, not just disease ranges, so you can spot imbalances early and track them over time.

Reserve a morning time at your branch, or walk in. No doctor's referral. Come fasted.

What people say
Friendly and competent staff. Both at reception and the nurse. A much simpler process than going through doctors. Thank you ladies.
The staff at reception as well as the nurses are friendly and professional. I've also always received results timeously. I would give 10 stars if I could.
Highly highly highly recommend. The experience was painless and the practice was inviting and well kept. The report was extremely detailed and informative and I would have this as top of my list for preventive care.
Amazing experience, highly professional staff. Very reasonable prices. Highly recommend.
I cannot recommend Juliette and her team enough, friendly and kind from the get go. Bloods were drawn with minimal discomfort and the labs came back quickly.
Excellent experience at Epicentre. The staff were professional, kind, and took time to explain everything clearly. The facility was clean, booking was easy, and I did not feel rushed.
What this does not do
This is a broad screen of the main systems. It is a starting point for a conversation with your doctor, not a diagnosis on its own.
- It does not diagnose any condition on its own; unusual results are followed up with your doctor.
- It does not cover every test; your doctor may add others based on your history.
- A single set of results is a snapshot, most useful when read in context and tracked over time.
- Results are meant to inform a discussion with a registered practitioner.
