Reminder: All samples, except stool which can be kept frozen, must be given to ORIGINS on the same day that you collect them.

Options for getting your one-year samples to us:

  1. Bring to appointment: If you have a face-to-face appointment booked in with us, bring all your collected samples with you, including the frozen stool in a cooler bag or foam esky provided.

  2. Drop off to The Kids Joondalup: All samples, including frozen samples, can be dropped to our ORIGINS clinic in Edgewater.    8am - 3pm  |   Shop 51 / 57 Joondalup Drive, Edgewater

  3. Western Diagnostic Centres: You can drop your fresh samples to one of the following Western Diagnostic centres. Please note centre opening hours and complete the relevant forms included in your sample collection packs.

    NB: If using this method, please only drop urine, breast milk, saliva and buccal - hold on to your frozen stool until your next set of samples are due, or call us to arrange a pickup.
