Phlebotomy

Phlebotomy is a medical procedure that involves the collection of blood from a patient for laboratory testing or transfusion.

Phlebotomy services are typically performed by trained healthcare professionals, such as phlebotomists or medical assistants, who have been trained in the safe and effective collection of blood samples. During a phlebotomy procedure, the healthcare professional will use a needle or other device to collect a blood sample, which is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.
