Blood test in Oosterhout.

No. You start online yourself, without a GP referral, and will soon pick a draw location in the Optimize app in the Slotjes, on the Pasteurlaan or in Vrachelen.

Soon you draw at a location run by 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 7 Star-shl draw locations in and around the town: at GC Slotjesveste, Diagnostisch Centrum Star-shl on the Pasteurlaan and Gezondheidscentrum Vrachelen, and beyond that in Teteringen, Dongen and Raamsdonksveer. All addresses are on this page, sorted by distance.

Yes. In Dongen you draw at MIJZO Dongepark or at Medisch Centrum Beljaart on the Kloosterpad. 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. You therefore come in the morning, by 12:00 at the latest, so you only postpone breakfast. The app tells you exactly how to prepare.

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