Title: Karyotype testing in the UK?
Post by: Padma on June 07, 2017, 01:23:15 AM
Can anyone recommend anywhere in the UK that does affordable karyotype testing? It's amazingly difficult to find out which of all the available genetics labs actually do this. I don't have access to this via the NHS, so I want to get it done privately.

Hi Hon,

How are you?

I have seen this service. https://privatebloodtests.co.uk/private-blood-test-for-karyotyping-in-blood.html

The cost seems ridiculously expensive from my perspective but unless you know a medic working in a hospital that has a genetic lab it may be the alternative.

I'm not sure if the nearly fully fledged medic we both know is working in such a hospital at the moment.
