Maybe midday is a good time ?


The lovely lady who did my mum said that GP surgeries were laying off staff ,one practice nurse where there used to be 2 and less blood tests being carried out at surgeries .


So more pressure on clinic .

Yes I've heard this and probably explains long waits (sometimes) at DH. My Mum usually goes to King's and she is seen very quickly at the clinic. Although in some departments their blood taking isn't that good.


If you have to have blood taken on a regular basis it can make you very apprehensive every time you go, especially if you have a bad experience.

I work in Dulwich Hospital, and there's a bit of confusion with the blood dept opening times - some GPs still give their patients the old forms to take to their blood tests, which have outdated information on.


The blood test dept is open Mon-Fri, from 7.30 to 15.45.


I'd highly recommend that if you're swinging by later in the day you try and get there at least 15 minutes before it closes, as they tend to be quite prompt about shutting up shop and don't make exceptions for people who have turned up a few minutes late.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
