The Phlebotomy / blood testing department in the Bon Secours Hospital Dublin is by appointment only. The department is located on the ground floor of the hospital and appointments are from 8am – 4pm Monday to Friday.
A GP / consultant referral is required, and the results are sent to the referring GP or consultant once available. Where results are critical, the referring clinician will receive a phone call with the results.
Referrals can be sent to the department either directly by the referring clinician or by a patient to dphlebotomy@bonsecours.ie . Referral forms can be downloaded here
Once a referral has been received patients receive a text with a link to our online appointment portal inviting them to log on to the portal to book an appointment for a date and time that best suits them. They will then receive a confirmation text and any other preparations that may be required in advance of the blood test. A link to the Swiftqueue portal is available at the top of this page 'Book Test'. Please note that the tests are individually priced and must be paid for at the time of registration on the day of the test.
The results of any blood tests will be sent back to the referring clinician once available.
For additional assistance in arranging an appointment, our team is available on 01 8065347.
