Yes, absolutely! You can book tests for your family members using your account. During the booking process, simply enter the patient's details (name, age, gender) for whom the test is being booked. You can book tests for multiple family members in a single order, and the phlebotomist will collect samples from all patients during the same visit.
You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account and book tests on our platform. However, diagnostic tests can be booked for patients of any age, including children and elderly family members. For minors (under 18), the booking must be made by a parent or legal guardian who will also need to be present during sample collection.
You can reschedule your appointment free of charge, provided the request is made before the phlebotomist has been dispatched for your collection. To reschedule, contact our support team via phone at +91 98760 00000 or email at info@adhviklabs.com. We will help you find a new date and time slot that suits your schedule.
Sample Collection
Home sample collection is a convenient service where our trained and certified phlebotomist visits your home, office, or any preferred location to collect blood, urine, or other samples required for your diagnostic tests. This eliminates the need to travel to a lab, wait in queues, or take time off from your routine. The entire process takes just 5-10 minutes, and all samples are handled with strict safety and hygiene protocols.
We currently provide home sample collection services across most areas in Ludhiana city and its surrounding regions. Our service area includes but is not limited to Sarabha Nagar, Model Town, Dugri, Pakhowal Road, BRS Nagar, Civil Lines, Ferozepur Road, Haibowal, Jamalpur, Giaspura, and many more localities. If you are unsure whether your area is covered, please enter your pin code during booking or call us at +91 98760 00000 to confirm availability.
Preparation depends on the specific test you have booked. General guidelines include:
- Fasting tests: Do not eat or drink anything (except water) for 10-12 hours before the test. Common fasting tests include blood sugar (fasting), lipid profile, and liver function tests
- Non-fasting tests: Tests like CBC, thyroid profile, and Vitamin D generally do not require fasting
- Stay hydrated: Drink adequate water before your test to make blood drawing easier
- Medications: Inform the phlebotomist about any medications you are currently taking, as some can affect test results
- Comfortable clothing: Wear a top with sleeves that can be easily rolled up
Not all tests require fasting. Fasting is typically required for tests that measure blood sugar levels, cholesterol, triglycerides, and certain metabolic markers. When you book a test that requires fasting, we will clearly inform you during the booking process and via the confirmation message. As a general rule, if your test requires fasting, avoid food and beverages (except plain water) for 10-12 hours before the scheduled collection time. Early morning slots (6 AM - 9 AM) are ideal for fasting tests.
We offer flexible time slots to suit your schedule. Home sample collection is available from 6:00 AM to 12:00 PM on all days, including Sundays and public holidays. Early morning slots (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM) are especially recommended for fasting tests. You can select your preferred time slot during the booking process, subject to availability in your area.
