Blood test in Maassluis.

Not yet: the Maassluis locations open soon. From then on you schedule a time slot in the Optimize app, and at walk-in locations you pick a one-hour arrival window and confirm you are coming.

No. You start online yourself, without a GP referral, and will soon pick a time slot in the Optimize app at Medisch Centrum de Dijk or at an address nearby.

Soon you draw at a location run by Reinier Haga MDC or Star-shl, but you schedule and pay through Optimize, without a referral, and your results come with explanations in the Optimize app. Have a referral from your GP? Then you make the appointment with the lab itself and the results go to your GP.

At 6 Reinier Haga MDC and Star-shl draw locations in and around the town: at Medisch Centrum de Dijk on the Westlandseweg, in Maasland at Zorgpoort Maasland and Huisartsenpraktijk Het Heelhuis, in Vlaardingen at Gezondheidscentrum Westwijk and in Maasdijk at the health centre on the Waldeck Pyrmontstraat, and by ferry in Rozenburg at Woonzorgcentrum Blankenburg. All addresses are on this page, sorted by distance.

Yes. In Maasland you draw at Zorgpoort Maasland or Huisartsenpraktijk Het Heelhuis, in Vlaardingen at Gezondheidscentrum Westwijk. In the app you simply pick the address that suits you best; the lab and the results are the same everywhere.

Not automatically. You draw without a referral, so your GP need not be involved: your results come with explanations in the Optimize app, and you can always take them along to a consultation yourself.

Yes. Every draw is fasted: nothing to eat or drink from midnight, only water. Appointments are therefore in the morning, until 12:00, so you only postpone breakfast. The app tells you exactly how to prepare.

Usually within 24 hours of your draw. As soon as the lab is done, your results appear in the Optimize app, explained per value in plain language and translated into what it means for your lifestyle.
