Outpatient appointments

If you have an outpatient appointment at Barnet Hospital and your clinician has advised that you need a blood test, they will explain your options during your appointment.

To ensure social distancing, please do not arrive earlier than 10 minutes before your appointment time.

When you visit, please keep your distance from others and wear your own face covering which covers your nose and mouth. If you are not wearing one, we will give you a mask.
