2. HealthChecks360 | Diagnostic Centre | Health Check Up Dubai
1. EXPERTISE | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
1.1 Experience | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
1.2 Track Record | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
2. ACCESSIBILITY | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
2.1 Operating hours | ★★★★★ (5/5) |

4. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION | ★★★☆☆ (3/5) |
Established in 2013, HealthChecks360 is younger than the other laboratories. However, they’re well worth the mention for their extensive range of tests and established clientele (both individuals and corporations).
What’s unique about them is their intuitive online platform where you get to connect with different licensed healthcare providers and accredited labs in the UAE. They offer assistance through every step of the process – from booking the tests to having the tests done and getting the results.
Looking at their database, they have almost every test you can imagine.They have a wide range of blood tests and even set packages depending on your need at an affordable price.
If they don’t seem to have the test you need, you can even send them your prescription online through their website so they can get back to you about it, which we find very efficient.
We wish they could organize their database, however, as it makes it a bit inconvenient to look through their lab tests with an overloaded list.
Aside from different blood tests and lab tests, they also have a radiology arm that is capable of doing MRI, CT scan, X-ray, and ultrasound. So they’re a strong option for when you want to have a full battery of tests done.
Based on our experience, they are very professional and attentive. They really assist you from the moment you consult with them and give the results promptly.
Pros
- Wide range of tests
- Has a radiology arm
- Intuitive online platform
Cons
- Disorganized online database
- Younger than other laboratories

We noticed however, that they’re not as active on Whatsapp. So it might be best to call them directly for follow ups or queries.

5. York Diagnostic Laboratories DMCC
1. EXPERTISE | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
1.1 Experience | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
1.2 Track Record | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
2. ACCESSIBILITY | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
2.1 Operating hours | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
2.2 Responsiveness | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
3. RANGE OF AVAILABLE TESTS | ★★★★★ (5/5) |
4. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION | ★★★★☆ (4/5) |
York Diagnostic Laboratories DMCC’s staff has over 40 years of experience combined in the field of laboratory diagnostics. As such, it probably isn’t astonishing that what we like about this laboratory is how strict they are with complying with the highest standards in the field.
Their stringent Quality Management System guidelines have resulted in them getting international accreditation for ISO 15189:2012. This also must be why they have a solid reputation as a comprehensive and reliable laboratory.
We checked their database and were pleasantly surprised by their range of services. They have over 600 tests available.
However, we wish their database were more organized so it would be easier to get more information on the tests you need. Still, it’s impressive that they carry all these different types of tests under just one roof.
They have their own online services system where you can make your own account and get more comprehensive updates from them when you have your blood tests done.
Do note, however, that unlike other laboratories, they don’t have other additional services. They are mostly focused on laboratory diagnostics.
So, if you’re thinking of getting a whole range of tests, it might be best to check out the other options in this list instead.
Overall, we like that they are very professional and helpful. We also noticed that they give the results promptly, making for a very convenient and hassle-free process.
They’re not as active on Whatsapp, so it might be best to give them a call or go to their clinic directly to inquire.
They are in a convenient location, so they’re easy to find. They’re in the middle of Jumeirah Lake Towers, just facing the DMCC metro station.
Pros
- ISO-certified
- Over 600 tests available
- Professional and helpful
- Accessible location
Cons
- Unorganized database for tests
- No additional range of services aside from blood tests
- Closed on Friday

Tips For Choosing Laboratories for Blood Tests
Since there are a lot of laboratories, it might be hard to settle on one for the services you need. We gathered some tips to hopefully make the process simpler.
- Check what tests you need exactly.
Blood tests are usually needed upon doctors’ recommendations. So first consult with a doctor to assess the tests you need done and for what purpose.
From there, you can find if that particular test is available in your chosen laboratory.
- Assess the lab’s expertise.
Check the track record and expertise of the laboratories. You can ask yourself the following:
- Have they done similar tests to what you need?
- How’s their track record when it comes to their services?
- Check reviews online.
Reviews can give you insight into other people’s previous experiences. You’ll get to see if the labs were efficient, professional, and helpful overall.
From there, you get the gauge if they’re the laboratory fit for your needs.
- Compare prices.
It pays to do your research on which ones will give you the best value for your money. Blood tests, especially when done in bulk, can be expensive.
So, it’s really advised to compare prices. The cost of the services is usually available on their website or given upon inquiry.
