During the VDRL Test
Opt for the home sample collection service when booking the VDRL test. A phlebotomist will be assigned who will collect the blood sample from your home, at the date and time of your choosing. They use a vein finder tool to locate the suitable vein to use to draw blood from, along with sterilised needles and gloves that are disposed of after use.
