Private Blood Tests in Marbella
CellOrtho offers private blood test panels in Marbella, led by Dr. Arvin Yarollahi, a specialist in regenerative medicine and longevity. Our panels cover metabolic, lipid, inflammatory, thyroid and hormonal markers that can be used to assess where you stand. Every panel includes a consultation before the test and a follow up consultation after your results. Blood tests do not diagnose conditions on their own and are interpreted in consultation with a doctor.
What Our Blood Test Covers
Two panels are available. Both include a consultation before the test to decide which panel suits you, and a follow up consultation after your results with practical advice.

How Your Blood Test Works
1
Consultation Before Your Test
You speak with Dr. Yarollahi first to discuss your symptoms and goals and decide together whether the Basic or Advanced panel suits you. This consultation is included in the price of both panels.
2
Blood Draw at the Eurofins Laboratory
Your sample is taken at Eurofins Marbella, Av. Ricardo Soriano 49, Edif. Bahía, Bajo, 29601 Marbella, Málaga. Blood is not drawn at CellOrtho and no CellOrtho appointment is needed for this step. The draw takes approximately 15 minutes.
3
Follow Up Consultation After Results
Once results are available, Dr. Yarollahi reviews the markers with you and gives practical advice on nutrition, training and lifestyle. This follow up consultation is included in the price of both panels.
Blood Tests for Men in Marbella
A blood test for men typically focuses on hormonal markers alongside metabolic and cardiovascular health. Our panels include free testosterone in the Basic tier, with total testosterone, SHBG and estradiol added in the Advanced tier. SHBG matters because it determines how much of your testosterone is actually available to your body, which is why a total testosterone figure on its own can be misleading. These sit alongside metabolic markers such as fasting glucose, insulin and HbA1c, and cardiovascular markers including ApoB and Lp(a). Men often request testing in response to reduced energy, poorer training recovery, changes in body composition or sleep quality, though the panel is equally suited to establishing a baseline before any symptoms appear.
Blood Tests for Women in Marbella
A blood test for women covers reproductive and thyroid hormones alongside the same metabolic and cardiovascular markers. Our Basic panel includes estradiol and progesterone, while the Advanced panel adds FSH, LH, SHBG and testosterone. Testosterone is included for women because it plays a role in energy, muscle maintenance and libido that is often overlooked. Thyroid function is assessed through TSH and free T4, with free T3 and TPO antibodies in the Advanced panel, which matters because thyroid conditions are considerably more common in women and can produce symptoms easily attributed to something else. Women frequently request testing around perimenopause, or when investigating fatigue, cycle changes or difficulty maintaining weight.
How These Panels Differ from a Standard Panel
Tests are selected according to symptoms, medical history and clinical needs. A broader panel is not automatically more useful. These panels cover hormonal, metabolic, inflammatory and nutritional markers that are not always included in routine testing, and the results are reviewed with a doctor rather than handed over as a printout. The results may indicate areas worth reviewing and can be used to consider whether targeted interventions are appropriate for you. Results vary between individuals. Blood markers are often reviewed alongside a DEXA scan in Marbella for bone density and body composition.
Who is Private Blood Testing For?
Fatigue and low energy
Persistent tiredness that does not resolve with rest may indicate a metabolic, thyroid or hormonal imbalance. A blood panel provides markers that can be used to assess this and reviewed with a doctor.
Athletes and active individuals
Optimising training recovery, reducing inflammation and maintaining hormonal balance requires data. A detailed blood panel gives you the foundation to make evidence-based adjustments to your training and nutrition.
Preventive health
For health-conscious individuals who want to understand their risk profile. Whether testing is appropriate is decided individually, based on your symptoms, history and clinical needs, rather than by age alone.
International patients
Many of our patients combine a private blood test with a regenerative orthopaedic consultation during their time in Marbella, making the most of one clinic visit for both their joint health and broader wellbeing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this treatment
The first step is to book a free video consultation with Dr. Arvin Yarollahi. During that consultation he will discuss your symptoms, health goals and medical history, and advise whether the Basic or Advanced panel suits you. Your sample is then taken at the Eurofins laboratory in Marbella, so no appointment at CellOrtho is needed for the blood draw itself. Results are typically available within five to seven working days, after which Dr. Yarollahi reviews the results with you in a follow up consultation.
Blood is not drawn at CellOrtho. Your sample is taken at the Eurofins laboratory in Marbella, at Av. Ricardo Soriano 49, Edif. Bahía, Bajo, 29601 Marbella, Málaga. You attend the laboratory directly with your test request, and no CellOrtho appointment is needed for that step. The draw itself takes around 15 minutes.
There are two panels. The Basic panel is €300 and the Advanced panel is €600. Both prices include a consultation before the test to decide which panel suits you, the laboratory analysis, and a follow up consultation after the results with practical advice. Optional add-on tests are available at an additional cost.
The Basic panel (€300) covers metabolic markers (fasting glucose, HbA1c, insulin), lipids (total cholesterol, HDL, triglycerides, ApoB), inflammation (hs-CRP), thyroid (TSH, free T4) and core hormones. The Advanced panel (€600) includes everything in the Basic panel plus C-peptide, Lp(a), homocysteine, free T3, TPO antibodies and an extended hormone profile. Which panel is appropriate is decided with a doctor before testing, and results vary between individuals.
The hormone markers differ. For women the Basic panel includes estradiol and progesterone, and the Advanced panel adds FSH, LH, SHBG and testosterone. For men the Basic panel includes free testosterone, and the Advanced panel adds testosterone, SHBG and estradiol. All other markers are the same for both.
Both panels include a consultation before the test to decide which panel suits you, the blood draw at the Eurofins laboratory in Marbella, laboratory analysis of the markers listed on this page, and a follow up consultation after the results with practical advice. Blood tests do not diagnose conditions on their own and are always reviewed with a doctor.
Tests are selected according to symptoms, medical history and clinical needs. A broader panel is not automatically more useful. These panels cover additional metabolic, lipid, inflammatory, thyroid and hormonal markers that are not always included in routine testing, and you receive a one-to-one review of your results with a doctor rather than a results printout.
Results are typically available within five to seven working days of your blood draw. Once results are ready, Dr. Yarollahi will contact you to arrange your results consultation, which can be done via video call if you are not based in Marbella.
Yes. Eurofins requires a fast of at least eight to twelve hours before the draw for fasting glucose, insulin, C-peptide and lipid markers. Water is permitted, and you should avoid coffee, juice, alcohol and smoking during the fasting period. Samples are usually taken in the morning. Dr. Yarollahi will confirm the exact preparation with you at your pre-test consultation.
Yes, and many of our international patients choose to do exactly this. You can combine a health optimisation blood test consultation with a regenerative orthopaedic assessment for a joint or tendon condition during the same trip to Marbella. The blood draw itself takes place separately at the Eurofins laboratory, not at CellOrtho. Please mention this when booking so we can arrange your appointments accordingly.
Absolutely. Many of our patients travel to Marbella specifically for the consultation and blood draw, then receive their results consultation via video call. The free initial video consultation can also be done remotely so you can discuss your goals and confirm the right panel before travelling. If you are already in Marbella, the entire process from consultation to results can typically be completed within ten to fourteen days.
Dr. Yarollahi reviews the markers with you in a follow up consultation and gives practical advice on nutrition, training and lifestyle based on what the results may indicate. Results vary between individuals and are always interpreted in consultation rather than in isolation. Repeat testing at intervals is available for patients who want ongoing monitoring.
Yes. As part of the health optimisation consultation, Dr. Yarollahi can provide clinical education and guidance on the role of peptides in longevity and recovery protocols, informed by your individual biomarker data. Peptide guidance is provided for educational purposes within the applicable regulatory framework. CellOrtho does not sell or prescribe peptides directly.
Yes. CellOrtho operates within the Spanish healthcare regulatory framework. All blood testing is conducted under the supervision of Dr. Arvin Yarollahi, a licensed medical doctor in Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Results are interpreted and communicated by a qualified specialist, not an automated system.
Fatigue, low energy, poor recovery and changes in mood or body composition are common reasons patients request a blood test. The panels include thyroid, metabolic, inflammatory and hormonal markers that may indicate an imbalance contributing to these symptoms. Blood tests do not diagnose conditions on their own, results vary between individuals, and any findings are reviewed with a doctor before any action is suggested.
