Frequently Asked Questions
Some of Fimlab’s service locations also operate with a queue ticket. The service locations can be busy in the mornings before 10 a.m. and early on in the week as well as on the first days of the month. If your examination does not require sampling in the morning, it is worth coming outside the peak hours. By booking an appointment, you can come to laboratory examinations without having to queue. Our Nopsa express service serves without appointment booking and a queue ticket (you will need a referral from public healthcare).
