Blood Collection (Phlebotomy)

The procedure of blood collection (Phlebotomy) is performed in a clean and safe environment. The phlebotomists are highly skilled and follow all aseptic precautions while collecting blood in Vacutainers.

Vacutainers are special vacuum test-tubes that allow the exact amount of blood to be drawn out in a safe and relatively painless manner. The phlebotomists make every effort to ensure that the procedure is comfortable even for children.
