Blood science specialists test blood samples to find out what’s happening inside the body. They help diagnose illnesses like diabetes, anaemia, and infections, and monitor how well treatments are working. They work with patients of all ages and support nearly every medical specialty. Their results help doctors make decisions and keep patients healthy.
