Question 1

Do I need to fast before a blood test?

Accepted Answer

For most metabolic panels (cholesterol, blood sugar, liver function), fasting for 8–12 hours is recommended. Hormone, STD, DNA, and vitamin tests typically do not require fasting. Your booking confirmation will include specific preparation instructions for your chosen test.

Question 2

When will I get my blood test results?

Accepted Answer

Most standard panels are delivered within 24–72 hours to your xlr8well dashboard and email. Specialist tests (DNA, hormone panels, gut microbiome, NIPT) may take 3 to 7 business days depending on laboratory processing times.

Question 3

Who performs the blood draw at home?

Accepted Answer

All home blood draws are performed by DHA-licensed phlebotomists and clinical nurses. They use sterile, single-use equipment following the same clinical protocols as a hospital or specialised laboratory.

Question 4

How are my samples handled and transported?

Accepted Answer

Samples are collected in sealed, temperature-controlled containers and transported immediately to our DHA-accredited laboratory partners. Full chain-of-custody protocols are followed to ensure sample integrity and result accuracy.

Question 5

Can I book for multiple family members at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you can book for multiple individuals in a single appointment. Please specify the number of people and the tests required during booking. Our phlebotomist will bring the appropriate equipment for everyone.

Question 6

Are my results confidential?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. All results are stored securely in compliance with UAE healthcare data protection regulations and GDPR. Only you and your designated healthcare provider can access your results through your secure xlr8well dashboard.

Question 7

Can a doctor explain my results?

Accepted Answer

Yes — a clinical doctor consultation to review your results is available as an add-on or can be booked separately via our Doctor at Home service. Our team will flag any values outside normal reference ranges.
