Cholesterol Blood Tests: Assessing Cardiovascular Health
A Cholesterol blood test is used to measure the amount of LDL (bad) cholesterol, HDL (good) cholesterol and other fats known as triglycerides in your blood. This is used to determine your risk of developing heart disease or stroke (cardiovascular disease).
A cholesterol test is an important component of our patient health screens. Your doctor may recommend a health screen to investigate potential reasons why you are not feeling yourself. Do not worry about determining for yourself which if any blood test you need. This is something that your doctor will be able to determine and explain during your consultation.
How Many Attempts to Collect the Blood Sample?
- Please take note of the following in our Phlebotomy policy, Each staff member is permitted only two attempts to collect a blood sample from a patient.
- However, if a patient’s veins are difficult to access, another phlebotomist may take over the collection, or the patient will be rebooked to be attended by Our Senior Registered Manager, with the patient’s consent.
All our blood tests are available same day with some of the fastest results in London. One of our doctors will take the time to explain to you what your test results mean and put in place any appropriate next steps based on those results.
We provide a same-day blood result service for some blood tests (Monday – Friday, excluding Bank Holidays). A £ 25 for Phlebotomy + Courier charge will be applied for all Bloods. Please inform us at the time of booking if you require same-day results.

This is just a small sample of the many blood tests provided by Miracle Inside. Please contact our expert healthcare professional for advice on the most appropriate tests for your condition during your consultation..
* Please note that the lab results are estimates and can vary. Tests taken after 1 pm will be classified as the following day for timing purposes. You will receive a written analysis of your results within 1 working day of them being available from the laboratory. It is often possible for the doctor who reviews your results to be the same doctor who requested them. This is considered medical best practice but will add an additional 1 working day to the timings. If you have multiple tests then we shall wait to report on them together unless the first results highlight any reason for concern. Sometimes the preliminary results will determine that additional tests need to be carried out on your sample. If this is the case then your results will take longer. There is no additional charge for this service.
