Well they are then tested for Hepatitis B and C. But then so are doctors
dentists and nurses so they are in good company...

I've had tattoos ( small ones!) at fully licenced sterile premises and
had all these tests and more during my pregnancies and am rather
frustrated that for an extra �?�?�?£100 I have to have them all again!

However, after skills assessments, visa costs, agent costs, general
medical costs and PCC checks, what's an extra �?�?�?£100!

Hiya

I was originally booked to go to the Nuffield but choose Hitchin in the
end, and they were great, reason I did not use Cambridge was cos they
are not insured to do children under a certain age, my daughter almost 4
was ok, but our son who is only 9 months could not have gone there, so
dont forget to check what their age limit is. I cant remember what
bloodtest it was but one was best part of �?�?�?£40 more expensive in
Cambridge if memory serves me right.

When my hubby went they scoured every inch of his body (he went in
london somewhere) when me and the kids went most of the examination was
with clothes on. Whatever you choose I am sure it will be fine.
