Temporary pause in HbA1c testing at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Hospitals

 

Due to technical difficulties, HbA1c testing at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Hospitals will be paused for two weeks, until Tuesday, 26 August.

We have been asked not to send HbA1c samples during this time from today (Wednesday, 13 August).

Please rest assured that we will be advising patients that are due for their HbA1c blood tests to rebook for a date after Tuesday, 26 August.

All other blood tests can go ahead as usual.

If you’d like to rebook your blood test, please speak to a receptionist by calling 01580 712476.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
