What does it detect?
Your doctor may diagnose prediabetes and the gestational version through check-ups, which show if your blood sugar is too high. Also, many people may not have any symptoms but may be at risk for diabetes or even have the condition, so they need to be checked without symptoms using this Profile.
Why get one?
Testing allows the doctor to detect the disease early and cooperate with the patient to manage issues and prevent complications.
3 BioMarkers:
- HbA1c (Glycated Haemoglobin) is for sugar and measures the blood sugar levels for three months.
- Microalbumin: detects early signs of kidney damage.
- Glucose: measures your blood sugar level at a specific time.
How does it work?
Please book a check-up and visit us on-site to have your appointment with one of our registered nurses. You must present your ID for your appointment.

Complete the Sample and hand to Laboratory Scientists for Processing
Lastly, once your results are ready, we will send you an email with your Result. Also you can view the report in your Dashboard.
How long do the results take?
Note also that the target turnaround time for the results is one working day after receiving them in the laboratory. The turnaround time is a guide only and sometimes depends on assay run schedules.
Therefore, visit Medicines Online at 89 Falcon Rd, SW11 2PF, for the best value in London with same-day results.

What is the Scientific Data from Instrument and Reagent Supplier?
Technology Method:
Fully automatic biochemistry analyser
Limit of Detection:
- Glucose: 0.55 mmol/L
- Microalbumin: 0 mg/L
- HbA1c: 3.3%
Accuracy and Precision:
- Glucose: The approximate error is < ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 0.9%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 2.2%.
- Microalbumin: The approximate error is < ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 5%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 5%.
- HbA1c: The approximate error is < ± 20%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 15%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 15%.
Measuring Ranges:
- Glucose: 0.55~22.24 mmol/L
- Microalbumin: 0~180 mg/L
- HbA1c: 3.3~4.5%
Validation-Active Information:
- EQA: Yes
- Inter-laboratory validations
- Periodic according to the validation schedule
- Event-triggered- Qc/Calibration/New materials/Batch
Accuracy and Precision:
The accuracy relies on the approximate error percentage. This percentage is the percentage deviation from the actual result. The precision relies on the within-assay coefficient of variations and the between-assay coefficient. The within-assay coefficient of variations is the variance of the result value if the same sample was analysed again. The between assay coefficient is the variance of the result value if the same sample was reprocessed from the beginning again.
In range results:
- Glucose: 3.89~6.11 mmol/L
- Microalbumin: 0~30 mg/L
- HbA1c: 4.6~6.2%

Emilia Terrence –
Got decent support by the people present. Was recently diagnosed with diabetes had little apprehensions in regular testing but I have gained trust on them.
Indy Gerard –
Great location of the clinic with a very well maintained hygienic environment. Good to go lab for me from now on.
Harrison A. –
Had a very positive experience. Staff was knowledgeable, and I had my results by the following day.
