Changes to blood test appointments
From 10 September 2026, Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust (PHU) Phlebotomy Services has moved to an online appointment booking system for routine blood tests.
This change will apply to all five phlebotomy sites:
- Queen Alexandra Hospital (QAH)
- Portsmouth Community Diagnostic Centre
- Petersfield Community Hospital
- Gosport War Memorial Hospital
- Fareham Community Hospital
Routine blood test appointments will be by appointment only. Adult blood-taking appointments are available for patients aged 14 years and above.
To book an appointment please visit: myappointments.online and register as a new user.
If you are unable to use the online booking system, please call 02392 681755 between 9am and 2:30pm, Monday to Friday, and a member of our team will be happy to assist you with arranging an appointment.
