What our EPIC clients have to say
Compliments to your staff and centre. I was so impressed by how the entire process was handled. So polite and comforting and professional.
Very impressed with your service. Your Staff were professional and well mannered. Will definitely recommend you!
Baie danke dat julle epicentre gekry het om my COVID-19 toets tuis to kom doen. Die hele proses was glad nie onaangenaam nie, Josh was baie vriendelike en die toets was vinnig en glad nie traumaties soos wat die staat en social media jou wil laat dink nie. Weereens dankie, ek sal jul op hoogte hou oor die resultaat proses.
What a fast and friendly service!
My client would like to thank the entire Cape Town Epicentre team, for the excellent manner in which their employees have been made aware of their status.
I am so grateful for all that Johann has done for us as a family and still doing. I am eternally grateful, and I stand in awe of his kindness. It brings tears to my eyes to think that someone can be so kind to total strangers. May the Lord bless you and keep you and take you from strength to strength. I took my uncle from a drug house about two months ago. He was slowly disappearing because of malnutrition. He doesn’t have any children or a wife. We all he has, and now you are willing to go the extra mile for him. My words are not enough to thank you. 🙏🏼 Bless you sir
They are simply the best! Good customer service, cognisant of the need for sensitivity and confidentiality and very friendly. I used to do my tests with another facility but now I’m a repeat client at Epicentre and the best part is that they take walk-ins. I needed to do a lot of tests and screenings two weeks ago, the results were delivered earlier than promised and yesterday, I went back for other tests. Please check them out, you won’t regret it! They are currently doing a Cough Check tor free, I already did mine.
This is a really great place to get any kind of pathology work done. The staff are very kind and efficient and the discounted prices of the tests are an added bonus. I would highly recommend this centre.
My experience getting blood tests at the Epicentre has been excellent as the staff are all very friendly and professionally. The staff are well trained at taking blood painlessly and if they feel they can’t find the vain they will find a more senior staff member to do it. As someone with difficult collapsed veins i never worry about becoming a pin cushion at Epicentre.
The people here are so friendly and helpful. My blood was taken quickly efficiently and painlessly and my results were recieved a day later via email. I give them a five star rating.

What is a Wellness Package?
So an apple a day may keep the doctor away, but it turns out there’s a little more to it.
Our Wellness packages help you to screen for potential red flags that could compromise your overall health. They are like the broad brush stokes that help you zone in on problem areas.
These tests are from our Walk-In Lab, which means they are ‘pathology’ lab tests. Pathology lab tests take a little of your blood and analyse them. If you’re sick or looking to take control of your health, many of the decisions about your care will be based on the results of your blood and pathology tests.
Unlike other pathology labs in South Africa, we do not require a referral. This means that you are able to just ‘walk-in’ to our boutique lab and get tested, and afterwards you will own your results.
Our packages are completely custom, this means you are able to pick and choose the tests that you want and get exactly what you need. However, with our
But to make it easier for those of us who want a little more guidance on which tests to get, we have put together expert packages which focus in on the important issues we all want information on (Click on the button below to see all our packages).
But please note that these packages are just a guide, you can take any tests off the packages or add anything you would like on. Just speak to our team when you come in for your test, and we will be happy to build a custom package just for you!
We, cannot help you understand what your results mean in detail. But we are able to make a referral to excellent doctors in our communities that can help you utilize the information our results give you to take full control of your health.

To get a test, you will need to then come down to our Walk-In Lab. And speak to our team to discuss what package will be best for you.
You will then be asked to fill out a lab form.
If you need to have your blood taken, our nurse will very genitally take a small about of blood. Whilst the test will be over quickly, we will do our best to make you feel calm and safe during the entire process.
You will then be sent your results within 48 to 72hrs.
