Iron Test (Serum Iron) – Private Testing in London

The Iron Test (Serum Iron) is available at South Kensington Medical and Dental, our CQC-registered clinic in South Kensington, London SW7. This test is priced at £38. A £50 phlebotomy fee applies per visit for blood collection. It requires a venous blood sample, and results are typically available within 1 day.

This test measures aspects of iron metabolism. Iron is essential for haemoglobin production, oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune function. Both deficiency and overload cause significant health problems.

Who Should Consider the Iron Test (Serum Iron)?

Individuals with fatigue, pale skin, breathlessness, hair loss, or brittle nails. Women with heavy periods. Those being investigated for anaemia or iron overload conditions.

Iron studies are best interpreted as a panel (serum iron, ferritin, transferrin/TIBC, transferrin saturation) rather than individually, as each marker has limitations.

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.
