MedExpert

MedExpert at 35 Bulgară Street, in the Centru district, is a small sample-collection point of the MedExpert laboratory network. The network has operated since 1996 (under its current brand since 2010) and is headquartered at 42 Gheorghe Asachi Street; it has many collection points in Chișinău and around the country, listed on medexpert.md. This point keeps short hours, so check the listing before you go.

The network’s own laboratory is accredited to ISO 15189 and ISO 17025 and covers haematology, biochemistry, immunology, tumour markers and hormones, viral hepatitis, genetic and allergy tests, microbiology and histopathology, including non-invasive prenatal screening. Home sample collection is available for patients with limited mobility, and results appear in a personal account on the website.

Ratings are below average and experiences vary. Some patients praise the speed, the lack of queues and results sent by e-mail; others describe dated premises and unfriendly staff, and part of the complaints date from the period of mass COVID testing.
