Need a blood test?

Whalley Range's nearest private blood test clinic.

Whalley Range residents book private blood tests at Trafford Clinic because we're the closest pharmacist-led service — about a mile north on Seymour Grove from the M16 residential streets, with free patient parking. The clinic operates from Empire Pharmacy (GPhC premises 1123966), led by independent prescriber Haroon Iqbal. All venous draws go to UKAS-accredited labs and most routine panels (thyroid, ferritin, HbA1c, vitamin D, B12, lipids, hormone profiles, PSA, pre-Mounjaro baseline) return within 24–48 hours. We include a pharmacist consultation with every booking so you don't just receive a PDF of numbers — you understand what each marker means and what (if anything) needs action.

Private blood tests for Whalley Range residents

Trafford Clinic is the closest pharmacist-led private blood test service to Whalley Range — about 5–10 minutes via Withington Road and Chester Road. We operate from Empire Pharmacy, 122 Seymour Grove, Old Trafford (GPhC premises 1123966), led by Haroon Mohammad Iqbal MPharm, IP (GPhC reg. 2051093).

The panel menu

20+ named panels and most single tests: FBC, lipid profile (fasting), HbA1c (per NICE CKS Diabetes, 48 mmol/mol diagnostic threshold), LFTs, U&E, TFTs (TSH, free T4, free T3, antibodies), iron studies, vitamin D, serum B12 (with active B12 reflex), folate, hormone panels (testosterone, oestradiol, FSH/LH, AMH, SHBG, prolactin), CRP/ESR, PSA, coeliac screen. Phlebotomy follows Royal College of Pathologists standards.

Whalley Range patient profile

Common requests: fatigue workups (FBC, ferritin, B12, TSH, vitamin D — often coexisting in our female perimenopausal cohort); HbA1c monitoring for prediabetic and diabetic patients (the substantial South Asian population here means we apply the lower-BMI metabolic-risk lens — see our Whalley Range weight loss page for the NICE CG189 detail); baseline GLP-1 panels; HRT and perimenopause workups; coeliac screens; PSA monitoring for older male patients. If a flag warrants GP follow-up we provide a free annotated summary letter citing reference ranges.
