We accept all test referrals. Find a Collection Centre
Our pre and post-analytics service begins when a clinician orders a pathology test. We accept pathology request forms from all providers so you can choose the collection service you want.
We follow best practice patient care to collect the right specimens and transport them safely to our laboratories where they’re prepared for diagnostic testing.
Following our clinical investigation, we then deliver test results quickly and securely to clinicians, so they can make the best possible decisions for their patients.
This service is critical for the safe and efficient operation of all we do.
We provide a secure, continuous care from the time our collectors meet you and take responsibility of your specimen, until your result is delivered to your doctor.
Our pathology collection, courier and central specimen reception (CSR) teams manage all our pre-testing processes.
These teams ensure the safe delivery of your test results to your doctor and health care teams.
Customer service teams provide advice to patients, consumers and referrers. Others work with community groups to inform and support initiatives for better patient care.
