Comparing UAE labs: frequently asked questions
How do I compare diagnostic labs on Zavis?
Select two to four labs in the comparison tool on this page. The table shows each lab's type, cities, number of locations, accreditations, home sample collection and opening hours side by side. A cell is empty where the lab's profile holds no sourced fact.
Does the comparison show lab test prices?
Only for labs that publish them. 6 of the 13 publish per-test prices on their own websites: Unilabs, DarDoc, Healthchecks360, ServiceMarket, Smart Care Polyclinic and Forte Clinical Laboratory. Where every lab you select publishes a price for the same test, the tool shows those prices side by side, each linked to the page it was read from. It counts the tests for which each lab lists the lowest figure and does not say which lab costs less overall, because the websites do not all say whether VAT or a collection fee is added.
Which accreditations do UAE labs on Zavis hold?
Zavis found at least one accreditation in the accreditor's own directory for 8 of the 13 labs it lists. The schemes are ISO 15189 (8 labs) and CAP (6 labs). A licence is a separate matter: clinical laboratories in the UAE are licensed by the health regulator for their emirate.
Which UAE labs offer home sample collection?
10 of the 13 labs on Zavis say on their websites that they offer home sample collection: Thumbay Labs, PureLab, Unilabs, Medsol Diagnostics, STAR Metropolis Clinical Laboratories, Alpha Medical Laboratory, DarDoc, Healthchecks360, ServiceMarket and Forte Clinical Laboratory. The prices listed on the ServiceMarket website (Dubai only) include the home visit. For the other labs Zavis lists no visit fee, so ask what the visit costs when you book.
Can I compare how quickly labs return results?
Zavis does not compare result times. Turnaround depends on the lab and the test, so ask the lab when your results will be ready.
Does health insurance cover lab tests at these labs?
Lab profiles on Zavis do not list insurers. Cover depends on your plan, so ask your insurer and the lab before you book.
