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
A hormone panel is a snapshot read against the day it was taken. It informs a conversation with your doctor; it does not diagnose a condition on its own.
- Several hormones change across the menstrual cycle, so timing affects the result; ask us when to test.
- AMH estimates ovarian reserve; it does not predict whether or when you will conceive.
- Results are a screen, not a diagnosis; abnormal values need follow-up with a clinician.
- Hormonal contraception and some medicines affect these markers; mention them when you discuss results.
- If you have severe symptoms, see a doctor rather than waiting for a routine panel.
