During the PSA Test

Once the PSA test has been booked with PharmEasy Labs, a phlebotomist will collect the blood sample from your location. They use sterilised needles and gloves to draw the blood, and a vein finder device that locates the best vein in the forearm. The blood samples are stored in barcoded vials, kept in cooling containers, and then sent to the lab for testing.
