Laboratory Medicine runs the hospital's diagnostic testing: haematology, clinical biochemistry, clinical pathology and histopathology, in-house and around the clock. Most routine blood work is reported during the same visit, so your doctor can act on it immediately instead of asking you to return.
This matters most in the situations where waiting is the risk: a falling platelet count in dengue, a rising creatinine, a blood culture in suspected sepsis.

Questions patients ask
Is the laboratory open 24 hours?
Yes. Haematology, biochemistry and pathology run round the clock, including nights, Sundays and public holidays, for both emergency and inpatient testing.
Do I need to fast for my blood test?
For fasting blood sugar, a lipid profile and some liver tests, yes, usually eight to twelve hours with water allowed. Many other tests, including HbA1c and a complete blood count, do not need fasting. Ask when you book so you do not make an unnecessary trip.
How quickly will I get my report?
Most routine blood work is reported within a few hours and often during the same visit. Cultures take two to five days because the organism has to grow, and histopathology usually takes a few working days.
Can I get a test done without a doctor's prescription?
Routine screening tests can generally be requested directly, but a result without context is easy to misread in both directions. It is worth booking a consultation alongside so a doctor explains what the numbers mean for you.
Is home sample collection available?
Please call +91 7288 080 222 to ask, as this is being confirmed with the hospital. Collection within the hospital, including at the bedside for admitted patients, is available at all hours.
