Samples
If the doctor has requested for you to provide us with a sample e.g: a urine or a stool specimen or any other samples, please ensure your full name and date of birth has been clearly written on the bottle. If the writing is illegible the sample will be discarded by the hospital and you will have to provide another sample, furthermore this will cause a delay with your test.
