Platinum- 12 months of testing

At a glance..

It is clear that COVID 19 will be with us for the foreseeable future. Many questions still remain regarding 'immunity'. It is simply not yet known whether the presence of antibodies to Covid 19 antigen is protective (as seems likely) and for how long. For this reason it may turn out to be better for patients to have periodic testing. We have therefore bundled together 5 Abbott antibody tests over 12 months into our 'platinum' Covid 19 antibody package.

If you get tested for COVID 19 antibody and your result is negative and then develop some symptoms suggestive of CV19 infection you may well be thinking you will need to be retested.

If you get tested for COVID 19 antibody and your result is positive, you may then wonder, like our scientists, how long will the (we hope protective) antibody response last.

Therefore we can see the case for offering periodic repeat testing all of our patients tested over 12 months so as to detect changes that may affect the advice and, possibly, the protective effect of any antibody response.

New patients can purchase 12 months of testing (Platinum) online, and for those already tested we can upgrade to platinum for the same overall price, on request.

If you would like to arrange upgrade please call or email us at reception@mail.scvc.co.uk 01483 467100 with your details and we will send you a written quotation.

If you wish to combine our risk assessment with a COVID 19 antibody test these can now be booked on line.

Doctors can refer their patient for Consultation, open access tests or Healthscreening with a referral letter faxed to 01483 467120 or posted to us at 5 Huxley Road Guildford GU2 7RE or online using our forms and 256 encrypted e-forms.

Please note that our Coronary Calcium Score, Heartscreen+ screening packages are designed for patients that have no clear symptoms of heart disease, so we would advise that if the patient has symptoms of chest pain on effort, heart failure, palpitation or blackouts they should be considered for referral to a Consultant Cardiologist for a formal Consultation and medical examination.

For patients with or without symptoms that already under investigation or where investigations have been done elsewhere that require a Consultation (Consultants Direct and or some tests), no referral letter is required providing the patient can provide sufficient explanation for the Consultation and that paperwork or data from other organisations (eg discharge summary, echocardiogram result) are available for the Consultation.

To book a heart screen ask your patient to call us during office hours or to complete our contact form using the button below.

Heartscreen Bronze, Calcium score and some of our other tests can also be scheduled on line see our e-health page.
