During the CRP Test

The CRP test can be booked with PharmEasy Labs. Since it is a blood test, a phlebotomist will be assigned who will visit the location to draw the blood. The phlebotomist carries a vein finder device that enables them to locate the ideal vein in the forearm to draw blood from, along with fresh disposable kits that contain sterilized needles and gloves. The blood sample is safely stored in barcoded vials and then sent to the laboratory for testing.
