Advanced Blood Test & Lab Tests at Home in Dubai

Our home collection service covers over 200 diagnostic tests including complete blood count (CBC), comprehensive and basic metabolic panels, lipid profiles, liver and kidney function tests, thyroid panels, hormone profiles (testosterone, oestrogen, progesterone, cortisol), vitamin levels (D, B12, folate, iron), HbA1c and diabetes monitoring, allergy panels and food intolerance tests, tumour markers (PSA, CA-125, CEA), autoimmune screens (ANA, anti-CCP, RF), STI screening, urine analysis, stool tests including H. pylori and occult blood, throat and wound swab cultures, and genetic panels. Essentially, every test available in our DHCC lab can be collected at home.

At DCDC, home collection is AED 249 per visit, plus the price of each test at the same rate as our clinic laboratory. For example, a CBC at home costs AED 398 (AED 149 + AED 249), and a CBC with vitamin D costs AED 497. The collection fee is charged once per visit, not per test, so adding tests to the same visit only adds the test price.

Yes. A complete blood count (CBC) is one of the most common home blood tests. At DCDC it costs AED 149 plus the AED 249 home collection fee, so AED 398 in total for a CBC on its own. No fasting is needed. If you add other tests to the same visit, such as vitamin D, iron studies or thyroid function, you still pay only one collection fee.

A blood test at home is the most common type of home lab test: a phlebotomist draws a venous blood sample for panels such as CBC, lipids, HbA1c, thyroid, vitamins and hormones. Lab test at home also covers urine, stool and swab samples. Both are booked through this service, with one collection fee per visit, the same test prices as our clinic and the same DHCC laboratory.

Our home collection team is dispatched from Dubai Healthcare City and covers most residential and business areas across Dubai, including Downtown, Business Bay, DIFC, Dubai Marina, JLT, Jumeirah, Al Barsha, Mirdif and Deira. When you book, the team confirms availability for your address and an arrival window. Collection can be at your home, office or hotel.

Routine panels such as CBC, metabolic panels, lipid profiles, thyroid function, and vitamin levels are typically reported the same day for samples collected before midday, and within 24 hours for afternoon collections. Specialised tests including hormone panels, allergy profiles, tumour markers, and autoimmune screens may take 48 to 72 hours depending on the assay. Microbiological cultures typically require 3 to 5 days for incubation. Critical values such as severely abnormal glucose, potassium, or haemoglobin are flagged and communicated immediately by phone.

Some tests require fasting for accurate results. A lipid panel (cholesterol and triglycerides) requires 9 to 12 hours of fasting. Fasting glucose and insulin tests also require an overnight fast. A comprehensive metabolic panel is most accurate when fasting. Tests like CBC, thyroid function, vitamin D, B12, HbA1c, hormones, and tumour markers do not require fasting. Our team confirms fasting requirements based on your specific test order when you book, and we offer early morning collection slots to make fasting tests convenient.

Our technicians collect all common specimen types at home. This includes venous blood draws (the most common), capillary blood samples for specific assays, mid-stream urine samples, stool specimens with collection containers provided in advance, throat swabs, nasal swabs, wound swabs, and sputum samples. For urine and stool collections, we provide sterile containers with clear instructions before the appointment. Our phlebotomists are also trained in paediatric blood collection techniques for children.
