DNA paternity tests
Central London clinic, City of London Clinic and Manchester clinic by pre-booked appointment only
DNA paternity tests are carried out by gently swabbing the inside of the cheek of the mother, child, and alleged father to obtain DNA to confirm if the alleged father is the biological father of the child. Results are normally available in 5 working days. Paternity testing can be used for your peace of mind or for legal reasons (legal in Central London and the City of London only).
Testing can also determine whether two people are related in other ways, such as siblings.
Prenatal Paternity Testing
It is now possible to check who the father of a baby is while it is still in the womb through a blood test from the mother and alleged father, thus avoiding a risk to the baby.
