Getting tests done

Only registered medical practitioners, midwives, nurses and certain other kinds of health professionals are entitled to order laboratory tests.  Patients must have a printed signed test request form for blood collections at LabPlus.  Patients with electronic orders for tests that must be taken at the hospital should request a printout from their doctor or Awanui.  For most tests, patients can have their blood taken at a community laboratory collection room (Awanui).  Certain specialised tests may require a visit to one of the LabPlus collection rooms.

  • Level 6 at Auckland City Hospital - normal hours: 7.30 am - 4.15 pm Monday to Friday.
