Personalised support. At your pace.
Initial appointment: £99 · Up to 60 minutes
A plan designed around you.
Needle anxiety is different for everyone. NeedleReal™ offers a dedicated, clinician-led appointment to understand your concerns and help you take practical steps towards blood tests, vaccinations and other needle procedures.
We can review the concerns highlighted by your NeedleReady™ App profile, discuss previous experiences and explore approaches suited to your needs. You can also attend without completing the App.
What your appointment may include
- Numbing cream, such as EMLA, where clinically appropriate
- Distraction and relaxation techniques
- Gradual desensitisation and familiarisation with needles
- Practical adjustments to improve comfort, communication and your sense of control
- A blood draw or vaccination, if clinically appropriate and agreed at least 48 hours in advance
Blood tests and vaccinations: 48 hours’ notice
Any blood draw or vaccination must be discussed and agreed at least 48 hours before the appointment. The £99 appointment fee includes the blood collection procedure or administration of a vaccination where agreed and clinically appropriate. Laboratory tests and vaccine products are charged separately, with availability and costs confirmed in advance.
Your next steps
Some people may feel ready for a procedure at the first visit; others may benefit from further appointments. After the initial consultation, we will discuss a personalised plan and provide costs for any additional sessions before you decide whether to continue.
The appointment is up to 60 minutes. No particular outcome or completion of a procedure is guaranteed. Additional sessions, laboratory testing and vaccine products are charged separately.
