streaking a plateLaboratory Tests are very important in helping doctors to make diagnoses and monitor the progress of a patient’s conditions. When your doctor orders a lab test for you, the sample is sent to us for processing and analysis.

All tests that come in to CML are for diagnostic purposes; reports are sent directly to the requesting physician, who will then make a diagnosis based on the results. All patients’ information is kept strictly confidential. Depending on what type of test you do, your samples will be sent to first to our Central Processing Unit, then to one of our five testing departments: Chemistry, Bacteriology, Haematology, Endocrinology or Immunology.

We offer diagnostic testing for:


  • Anemia
  • Diabetes Mellitus
  • Hypertension
  • Cardiac Health
  • Liver and Kidney Function
  • Thyroid and other Hormone Functions


  • Cancer Screening
  • Sexual Health
  • Prostate conditions
  • Drug screening and many others

Central Medical Laboratories Limited is also engaged in Public Education through patient information leaflets, radio programmes, involvement in Health Fairs, and Community Projects.

CML has a state-of-art computerized Laboratory Information System that facilitates easy tracking of specimens and provides rapid and accurate reporting of results.

Through its auto fax capabilities, reports can be faxed directly from the laboratory to the requesting physicians.
