Pathology collection
Melbourne Pathology operates collection services at Armadale and Caulfield South. Bring your treating practitioner’s request and confirm the collection hours, test availability and any preparation before attending. GP opening hours may differ from pathology collection hours.
Before your appointment
- Bring your treating practitioner’s pathology request and ask whether the requested test needs an appointment.
- Confirm collection hours, fasting or other preparation, test availability and any fees with Melbourne Pathology.
- Arrange result follow-up with the practitioner who requested the test; clinic and collection-centre hours may differ.
Results should be discussed with the practitioner who requested your test. A pathology collection does not replace a GP consultation about the meaning of the result.
