The short answer: Lola Health and TrueVitals are the two UK providers that send a phlebotomist to your home for a proper venous draw, and Lola's Peak Insights 70 is a genuinely good mid-tier panel. The best Lola alternative when you want the full picture is the TrueVitals Ultimate panel: 140 biomarkers to Lola's 70, including the ones Lola leaves out (Lp(a), fasting insulin and HOMA-IR, cystatin C, tumour markers beyond PSA, immunoglobulins, coeliac screening), a written report that reads every marker together, clinician-reviewed, and no findings, no fee. £349 plus £39 at home anywhere in the UK or £19 at 103 partner clinics, against £235 for Lola.

Lola's panel contents and prices change; the current list is on lolahealth.com. Both providers use UKAS-accredited UK laboratories.
Lola covers the fundamentals properly, including the hormones and thyroid antibodies most panels skip. What it leaves out is the specialist layer: the markers that turn a good check-up into a screen that catches things early.
Genetic, elevated in about one in five people, and worth knowing once for life. Lola includes ApoB and sells Lp(a) separately; Ultimate includes both and corrects your LDL for it.
Insulin resistance shows here 5 to 15 years before HbA1c moves. Lola's metabolic section is HbA1c alone, which reads the story a decade late.
A kidney estimate that isn't fooled by muscle mass, plus FIB-4 and APRI for liver fibrosis, calculated from markers Lola doesn't run (AST, cystatin C).
Lola includes total PSA for men. Ultimate adds free PSA and the ratio, CEA and CA 19-9 for everyone, and CA-125 and CA 15-3 for women. Screening support, not diagnosis.
IgG, IgM, IgA, rheumatoid factor and anti-tTG. Lola runs total IgE only. Recurrent infections, joint pain and unexplained gut symptoms start here.
A twelve-point urine screen with culture, a validated biological age from nine of your blood markers, and one score for the whole panel you can track test to test. Lola's biological age is a separate £375 epigenetic test.
The markers that predict how well you age are ApoB, Lp(a), fasting insulin and HOMA-IR, hs-CRP, cystatin C and the liver fibrosis scores, read against a validated biological age. Lola includes ApoB and hs-CRP. Ultimate includes all of them and puts a PhenoAge on every report so you can see whether what you change actually moves it. Longevity blood test UK · Biological age (PhenoAge).
You want the fundamentals for less. £235 for 70 venous markers with full hormones, thyroid antibodies, full iron studies and a GMC-registered doctor's written review is good value, and £133 less than Ultimate. If you don't need the metabolic, cancer-marker or immune layer, Lola does the job.
You want to book online. Lola takes your preferred date and time at checkout and confirms within 24 hours. TrueVitals books by phone after payment, which suits some people and not others.
You want an app with trends. Lola's app plots each marker over time and exports to PDF or CSV. TrueVitals compares each report with your last one in writing.
Where Lola isn't the right choice is depth: no Lp(a), insulin or HOMA-IR, cystatin C, tumour markers beyond PSA, immunoglobulins, coeliac screen or urinalysis, no biological age on the blood panel, and no one to ask afterwards (Lola doesn't offer follow-up consultations). If you want the full picture and a person who knows your report, TrueVitals covers both.
Pay, and your referral is created and never expires. Call us when it suits and we book your slot there and then: a phlebotomist to your home or office anywhere in the UK for £39, or one of 103 partner clinics for £19. Nine in ten people who call are booked within seven days, and you can cancel for a full refund at any point before an appointment is booked. Your report lands within 4 working days of the draw.

For depth and reporting, yes. Lola is a good mid-tier choice for the fundamentals at £235. All eight UK providers ranked.
Not on Peak Insights 70 as listed on 30 September 2026; Lp(a) is a separate Lola test and insulin isn't offered. Ultimate includes both, with HOMA-IR, C-peptide and Lp(a)-corrected LDL. Lp(a) explained.
Lola Peak Insights 70: £200 plus £35 phlebotomist, £235 all in (£3.36 per marker). TrueVitals Ultimate: £368 to £388 all in for 140 (£2.63 to £2.77). Cost per marker compared.
