Home Sample Collection in Visakhapatnam
Get your blood and urine samples collected at home – convenient for senior citizens, patients with limited mobility and busy families.
Lab tests from the comfort of home
Visiting a laboratory is not always easy – especially for elderly parents, bedridden patients, pregnant women, small children or people recovering from illness. With home sample collection, a trained phlebotomist visits your home, collects the sample hygienically and transports it to the laboratory for testing.
SMS Diagnostics offers home sample collection enquiries for patients in Visakhapatnam. Simply call or send an appointment request with your test details and address, and our team will confirm whether your area and the requested tests are eligible, along with the date and time slot.
