Blood Test at Home in Business Bay Dubai — What to Expect

How a home blood test actually works in Business Bay — booking, fasting, nurse visit, results timeline and the doctor call that turns numbers into a plan.

Written and medically reviewed by Dr. Shahbaz Afzal, MBBS, MRCGP — GMC-registered British-trained GP · Published 18 June 2026 · Updated 18 June 2026

How booking works

You send us a WhatsApp on +971 52 320 1543 with the panel you want — or describe how you're feeling and we'll suggest the right one. A nurse is dispatched from our Business Bay clinic, usually within 60–90 minutes. Most Business Bay patients are seen the same morning.

All panels start from AED 150 for individual markers (Vitamin D, TSH, HbA1c) and AED 1,200 for our 40+ marker Aafiyah Signature Profile. Pricing is sent before the visit — no surprises.

What's available

Single markers: Vitamin D, thyroid (TSH/T3/T4), HbA1c, lipid profile, full blood count, ferritin, B12, liver and kidney function.

Bundled panels: women's hormone panel, men's executive panel (testosterone, PSA, cardiac risk), perimenopause panel, fertility, and the 40+ marker Aafiyah Signature Profile that screens metabolic, cardiovascular, liver, kidney, thyroid, vitamin and inflammation health in one visit.

Fasting & timing

Fasting (10–12 hours, water only) is needed for cholesterol, fasting glucose and HbA1c. Vitamin D, thyroid, B12, ferritin and CBC don't require fasting. Testosterone is best drawn before 9 am.

We'll confirm exact prep when you book and remind you the night before.

The nurse visit itself

10–15 minutes from arrival to leaving. The nurse confirms your ID, sets up at your kitchen counter or living room, draws the sample with a standard vacutainer system (same as any hospital) and seals the tubes. Samples go straight to our DHA-accredited reference lab.

Painless for most patients. We carry everything we need, including children's butterfly needles where requested.

Results — and the GP call

Most routine results are back within 24 hours, with urgent markers often same day. Specialist hormone, allergy and tumour-marker panels take 2–5 days.

This is where Aafiyah differs from a standard hospital lab: a British-trained GP personally reviews every report and calls you to explain what it means in your context. You don't just get a PDF dropped in your inbox — you get a conversation, a written interpretation and a clear next step.

Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, DIFC and Burj Khalifa-area hotels are typically reached within 60 minutes of booking. We also cover Dubai Marina, JBR, Jumeirah, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Hills, The Springs, JVC, Arabian Ranches and the surrounding communities.
