Next to Ashton, quick to Oldham.
Dukinfield sits in Tameside right next to Ashton-under-Lyne, a mainly residential town whose residents share the shops and amenities of its bigger neighbour. For a private blood test, Oldham Clinic is a short drive north up the A627 and A635, so you can self-refer for the tests you want rather than waiting for a GP appointment to request them. From a single thyroid or cholesterol check to a full health screen, your sample is taken the same day at Westwood Pharmacy on Featherstall Road North, sent to a UKAS-accredited lab that evening, and reviewed by pharmacist Nazma Bibi before your annotated results arrive within 24 to 48 hours. Free patient parking is on-site when you get here.
Private blood tests a short drive from Dukinfield
Dukinfield sits next to Ashton-under-Lyne in Tameside, and Oldham Clinic is a short run north up the A627 and A635. You can self-refer for the bloods you want, from a single thyroid or vitamin D test to a full general-health screen, without waiting for a GP appointment to request them. Samples are drawn the same day on Featherstall Road North, sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory that evening, and your annotated results are back within 24 to 48 hours.
Care for a residential Tameside town
Mainly residential and closely tied to neighbouring Ashton, Dukinfield is home to families and workers who value healthcare that does not mean a long wait. We see over-40 cholesterol and HbA1c screens, thyroid and hormone panels, vitamin and iron studies, and baseline bloods before a clinician-led weight loss programme. A short drive north to Oldham gets you tested and answered far sooner than a routine GP request.
Proper clinical testing, clearly explained
Choose a single marker, an organ panel or a comprehensive screen, with a free ten-minute consultation on hand if you want help choosing. Every sample follows the same UKAS chain of custody the NHS uses, and Nazma Bibi reviews each report, flagging anything outside the reference range and explaining in plain English whether it warrants a GP conversation. If it does, we provide a summary letter you can take with you.
