From DoctorMyhill

• An important aim of this website is to give people direct access to medical tests to help them to diagnose and manage their own problems.
• This website works on trust. There are no disclaimers, that is to say that I trust you to use this site responsibly and you must trust my staff and me to give you the best possible service. Human error is always possible but we bear full responsibility for any advice or recommendations that we make to you, based on the information we receive.
• Please, make sure you have read the page When not to use this website
• Out of courtesy, please inform your GP that you are having some tests done through this website. I will be sending him a copy of the result in every case.
• The tests described on this website require a doctor's referral. When you order a test through my website, I will refer you for that test. This means I will provide you with the test kit and the laboratory's request form (which will have my name on it as the "referring doctor"). Please, do not contact the laboratories directly for a test kit.
• The test result(s) will come to me and I will write your GP with an interpretation of the result(s). You will receive a copy of my letter and a copy of the result(s). If the test result is positive, I may make brief recommendations for treatment and also indicate what further investigations or treatments I would consider useful. The quality of my letter and any advice that I give will be much better if I have details of your health problems. This information will provide the context for my interpretation of the results. The easiest way to supply such information is by completing and returning to me a medical questionnaire - see Ordering Tests for more information on how to do it.
• Test pages can be viewed from the list below or from the articles to which they are linked.

• If you have any questions about the ordering process or the availability of tests not listed on this website, please send your enquiry to Hania.

• If you cannot find the test you wish to have, please send me an email with all the test details you have and I will try to organise it for you.
