Helping Patients Understand Their Blood Tests

Blood test results can be confusing. This free tool helps you look up what a test measures, understand what typical UK reference ranges mean, and prepare questions for your GP.

Important: This tool provides general information about UK blood test reference ranges. It does not diagnose conditions. Your GP will interpret your own results in the context of your symptoms, history, and other tests.

If you're living with a long-term condition

I want you to know something important.

A full, meaningful life is possible. Not "despite" your condition — alongside it.

I have flare-ups. Some days are harder than others. And I still work full-time as a GP, build tools, spend time with my family, and live a life I'm grateful for.

It takes knowledge, support, and a bit of self-compassion. But it's absolutely achievable.

You're not defined by your diagnosis. And you're not alone in this.
