How it works

No. You can walk in to any of the 896 centres on this page with the referral from your Vively app. Some centres take bookings for other services, such as drug screens or ECGs, but a standard blood draw needs no appointment.
Yes. 92 Sydney centres open on Sunday, most of them for the morning only. By area: west 35, south-west 27, north-west 17. Saturday is easier, with 474 centres open.
57 centres open by 7am on most weekdays, including Brookvale (Laverty Pathology) from 6am; Marrickville (4Cyte Pathology) from 6am; Ingleburn (Laverty Pathology) from 6:30am. Mornings are the busiest time, because most people having a fasting test go then. Arriving right at opening is the best way to beat the queue, and it shortens the time you spend fasting.
Not for standard blood tests, which need a doctor to sign the request. With Vively a doctor reviews and signs it online, so you skip the GP clinic visit, not the referral.
Your Vively referral works at any centre on this page: 4Cyte Pathology (341), Australian Clinical Labs (290), Laverty Pathology (265). Search by postcode in the centre finder to check a centre before you go.
