Royal Bahrain Hospital provides 24X7 Laboratory services. Our primary focus is on our patient by providing prompt, precise results to assist clinicians in giving excellent patient care. The subdivisions of Department of Laboratory Medicine include: Biochemistry | Hematology | Histopathology & Cytopathology | Microbiology. We render our services to outside hospitals, especially second opinion and immunohistochemistry on biopsies and frozen section, and also do investigations on patients referred by outside doctors.
Lab tests provide doctors with crucial information required for accurate diagnosis. Routine lab tests are therefore important for early detection of symptoms or conditions and to determine the necessity of further treatments to ensure that our patients are in good health.
Our lab tests cover medically necessary clinical diagnostic services as referred or ordered by our doctors or practitioners. Laboratory tests include blood tests, urinalysis, tests on tissue specimens, and screening tests.
The Department of Laboratory at Royal Bahrain Hospital is staffed by highly experienced and well-trained technicians and specialists with an emphasis on accuracy and precision.
