I would be suprised if you have not had Liver Function, as I usally have mine every time I have my Bloods done. Which is every 6 months.

My surgery is very helpful, they do most tests I ask for.
Do you get a follow up with the nurse or doctor after you get your results?
I normally get the nurse, but I can book a call with the doctor as well.
I used to use that as an opportunity to ask for other stuff, but now when they ring to book me in for blood tests, I ask to tag things on, they will then book me a call if the doctor needs to agree it.
 
Now we get called for bloods in our birth month and have a full review with the nurse for the results ( this is new and only just started), 6 months later will be bloods with a phone call to discuss the results. Before that my bloods were 12 monthly and phone calls with the GP since 2020. They do Cholesterol and kidney function as standard
