FAQs about Shankar Hospital
- How much do diagnostic tests cost at Shankar Hospital?
- Prices at Shankar Hospital vary by test and change from time to time. Use the "Reveal phone number" button above and call the centre for a confirmed quote on the test your doctor prescribed. As a guide, a routine blood test in Bangalore typically costs ₹150-₹1,500 and imaging like MRI or CT can range from ₹3,500 to ₹18,000.
- Can I get home sample collection from Shankar Hospital?
- Shankar Hospital is not currently listed as offering home sample collection. Call the centre to confirm - some labs add this service on request. If you need home visits, browse other verified centres in Bangalore on Locatemycentre filtered by "Home Visit".
- How long does it take to get test reports from Shankar Hospital?
- Most routine reports (CBC, lipid, LFT, KFT, blood sugar) are ready within 6-12 hours of sample collection. Thyroid, vitamin D, HbA1c and most hormone panels take 24 hours. Specialised tests (biopsy, culture, advanced hormones) can take 3-7 days. Imaging reports (X-ray, ultrasound, MRI, CT) are usually available the same day or within 24 hours. Confirm the exact turnaround when you book.
- Do I need a doctor's prescription to get a test done?
- For most routine tests in India - blood work, urine routine, basic imaging - you can walk in without a prescription. For some advanced tests (certain hormones, biopsies, scheduled drugs, contrast scans) a doctor's reference is required by law. Specialists also rely on a prescription to interpret results in context. When in doubt, get a brief consult first.
- Is Shankar Hospital NABL or NABH accredited?
- Ask the centre directly for the NABL (for pathology labs) or NABH (for radiology/hospitals) certificate number, then verify it on nabl-india.org or nabh.co. Accreditation is the strongest quality signal we recommend checking before booking, especially for tests that drive a treatment decision such as thyroid, diabetes, lipid or hormone panels.
- How will I receive my report?
- Most centres email a PDF report to the address you give at registration, and many also offer a download link or app login using your patient ID. Hard-copy collection at the counter is usually free; courier delivery is optional and may carry a small charge. Save the digital copy - your physician will want to compare it against past results.
- What payment methods does Shankar Hospital accept?
- Most diagnostic centres in Bangalore accept cash, UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), debit/credit cards, and net banking. Insurance cashless settlement is offered by larger chains for empanelled tests - confirm with the centre and your insurer before the visit.
- What if I'm unhappy with the report or service?
- Call the centre first and ask for a free repeat draw if the result looks clinically inconsistent - NABL-accredited labs reprocess at no charge in such cases. If unresolved, escalate to the centre's quality officer (every NABL lab has one) and, if needed, raise a complaint with NABL via nabl-india.org. You can also report listing errors to Locatemycentre via the contact page.
