NIPT Testing at Home Across London
We believe NIPT testing should be straightforward, clinically supported and convenient.
Rather than asking you to travel across London for a blood test, we can arrange for your blood sample to be collected at home.
The process begins with a free GP consultation. Your doctor will discuss your pregnancy and gestation, explain what the different NIPT tests can screen for and make sure you have the information you need before deciding whether to proceed.
If you choose to go ahead, we complete the necessary paperwork, arrange payment and send your NIPT collection kit to your home. A third-party mobile phlebotomy service is then arranged to attend your home and collect the blood sample.
What Is an NIPT Test?
NIPT stands for non-invasive prenatal testing.
It is a screening test performed using a blood sample from the mother. During pregnancy, small fragments of DNA originating from the placenta circulate in the mother’s bloodstream. NIPT analyses this cell-free DNA to estimate the chance of certain chromosomal conditions affecting the pregnancy.
Depending on the test selected, screening can include the three most commonly screened trisomies:
-
Trisomy 21 — Down syndrome -
Trisomy 18 — Edwards syndrome -
Trisomy 13 — Patau syndrome
Some testing options can provide additional screening.
NIPT is a screening test rather than a diagnostic test. Your doctor can explain what this means during your free consultation and discuss which testing option may be appropriate for you.
How Our NIPT Service Works
We have designed the service to make arranging an NIPT test as simple as possible.
When Can I Have an NIPT Test?
NIPT can generally be performed from 10 weeks of pregnancy, depending on the particular test being used and your individual circumstances.
Knowing your gestation accurately is therefore important.
If you already have reliable pregnancy dating information, you may be able to proceed without having another ultrasound purely for the purposes of NIPT.
If your dates are uncertain, or there is another clinical reason for an ultrasound, we can discuss whether having a scan before your blood test would be appropriate.
Your GP will discuss this with you during your free consultation.
Do I Need an Ultrasound Before NIPT?
Not necessarily.
Some women will already have reliable information confirming their gestation and pregnancy and may not require an additional scan simply to arrange NIPT.
For others, an ultrasound may be helpful or clinically appropriate before testing — particularly where pregnancy dates are uncertain or where there are questions about the pregnancy that should be assessed by ultrasound.
This is one of the reasons our service begins with a GP consultation rather than simply sending out a blood-testing kit.
We can discuss your individual circumstances first and advise you on the appropriate next step.

Our Patient Review

I was understandably very worried and was able to book an appointment within just a couple of hours. From the moment we met him, Dr Mac Sweeney was kind, reassuring, professional and genuinely caring. He took the time to listen, explained everything clearly, and made us feel that my husband was in very safe hands.
What impressed me most was that his care did not stop when we left the consultation. He followed up on several occasions to check on my husband's progress, prescribed more medicine and even went out of his way to provide a letter for our insurance company, which was incredibly helpful.
In a world where good service can sometimes feel hard to find, Dr Mac Sweeney demonstrated a level of compassion and personal attention that was truly exceptional. The fee was also very reasonable, especially given the time, care and support we received.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr Mac Sweeney to anyone needing medical assistance and will always be grateful for the kindness he showed to both of us. If I lived in London I would most certainly subscribe to his membership scheme so he could deal with all my family's medical needs.


The clinic has a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, with a fresh, calming scent that immediately creates a welcoming environment. Everything was explained clearly and professionally, making the whole experience completely stress-free.
I particularly appreciated the expert advice and felt comfortable throughout. I would highly recommend The Blackheath Clinic to anyone looking for a professional, patient-focused service.


As I entered the tastefully curated space, I encountered one of the rarest of things: a polite, smiling and genuinely welcoming receptionist. In fact, she was so warm and courteous that I briefly wondered whether I had wandered into an upmarket spa by mistake.
Then I met Dr Sweeney. He was charming, courteous, friendly and thoroughly professional, with the kind of bedside manner that reminds you what general practice can be at its best: attentive, humane and quietly confident. He came across as someone who takes real pride in his work and genuinely cares for his patients.
The whole experience felt like stepping back into a time when patients were warmly received and doctors truly doctored. As I was leaving, Dr Sweeney mentioned that he was off on a home visit. A GP doing a home visit in 2026? I was so astonished I nearly needed examining all over again.
Join this practice quickly before word gets out and the list fills up. This is care delivered by people who genuinely care, and that feels all too rare these days

I had lip filler and RRS Long Lasting skin boosters, and she took the time to explain everything clearly, answer all my questions, and ensure I felt confident about the treatments. Her attention to detail and gentle approach really stood out, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.
Dr Micha Plugaru truly combines expertise with a warm, personal touch. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering aesthetic treatments — you’re in the safest and most caring hands.
