Venous, never a finger prick
Finger-prick kits under-fill, clot and get sent back. Every Skyline sample is a venous draw by a phlebotomist or nurse, so your results come back first time, every marker.
Blood tests
A proper venous draw by a trained professional, never a finger prick. Analysed by a UKAS accredited laboratory and explained in plain English, against ranges that make sense for people who train. Five profiles from £149, clinic collection included.

Why Skyline
Most of what goes wrong with blood tests happens before the lab: failed finger pricks, kits that never arrive, results a GP won't act on. We built the service around those three things.
Finger-prick kits under-fill, clot and get sent back. Every Skyline sample is a venous draw by a phlebotomist or nurse, so your results come back first time, every marker.
Samples go to Nationwide Pathology, a UKAS accredited laboratory (ISO 15189). Your report is a proper laboratory report: every marker against its range, with a plain English overview of what it means.
Order, then choose a date and time at your clinic or for your home visit. The clinic draw is in the price; a nurse at home is £15 more.
What it tells you
The markers people ask for most, in profiles that answer a goal rather than pad a count.
Why the legs are flat late in a block and whether you're actually recovering. Full iron studies, muscle markers, hs-CRP, cortisol and testosterone.
The usual suspects behind tired, flat and foggy: iron studies, B12, folate and vitamin D with your blood count and HbA1c. The full thyroid panel joins at Health + Performance.
A cholesterol panel on every profile, HbA1c from The Health Profile up, and ApoA1 and ApoB, the particle markers a standard check misses, on Health + Performance and the Complete Profile.
Testosterone, SHBG, free androgen index, LH, cortisol and DHEA-S alongside the full thyroid panel, every result against the laboratory's range.
Oestradiol, FSH and LH alongside iron studies, thyroid, bone and mineral markers and your blood count. Low ferritin doesn't get to hide.
Blood count, liver, kidneys, cholesterol and hs-CRP. Where you stand today, and the numbers to compare against next time.

Questions
What people ask before their first test. More answers in the Learn hub.
Visit the Learn hubStart with The Baseline if you've never had a full panel. Choose The Health Profile for iron studies, vitamins, minerals, HbA1c and testosterone. If you train seriously, Health + Performance, or the Women's profile, adds hormones and recovery markers. The Complete Profile is everything we run. Still unsure? Take the 2 minute quiz.
No. Every Skyline test is a venous draw taken by a phlebotomist or nurse. It is more reliable, allows many more biomarkers, and your sample is not sent back for under-filling.
Yes. Every price includes a blood draw at a Skyline partner clinic. There is nothing to add at checkout unless you choose a home visit, which is £15 more.
Samples are analysed by a UKAS accredited laboratory, so your GP can read the report like any other laboratory report. Anything outside its range is flagged, with what to take to them.
The lab posts a venous kit to you. You book a draw with your own clinic, GP practice or nurse, they take the sample, and you post it back in the prepaid packaging. Results arrive by email and in your account the same way.
Usually within 24 hours of your sample reaching the laboratory (urine tests up to 2 days). We email you the moment your report is ready, and it's saved in your account.
Only if the laboratory asks for it for your panel. We tell you by email and text before your appointment; otherwise just drink plenty of water beforehand.
