Ferritin Test – Private Testing in London

The Ferritin Test is available at South Kensington Medical and Dental, our CQC-registered clinic in South Kensington, London SW7. This test is priced at £96. A £50 phlebotomy fee applies per visit for blood collection. It requires a venous blood sample, and results are typically available within 1 day.

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron inside cells. Serum ferritin is the most sensitive and earliest marker of iron stores, the first value to drop when iron deficiency develops.

Who Should Consider the Ferritin Test?

Individuals with fatigue, pale skin, breathlessness, hair loss, or brittle nails. Women with heavy menstrual periods. Vegetarians and vegans. Those being investigated for iron overload (haemochromatosis). Patients with chronic fatigue.

Low ferritin confirms iron deficiency. However, ferritin is also an acute-phase reactant. It rises during infection, inflammation, and liver disease, potentially masking underlying iron deficiency.

A trained nurse collects the blood sample by standard venepuncture, a straightforward procedure that typically takes around five minutes. Our clinic is on Old Brompton Road, directly opposite South Kensington tube station (Piccadilly, Circle, and District lines). No GP referral is needed — book online or call 020 7183 2362.

Check Your Iron Stores

Ferritin reflects your long-term iron status and depletes before haemoglobin drops.
