He took did the blood test himself? He didn't send you to a lab to have the blood drawn by a technician & sent away?
Either way, when the needle was put in, did he just take one vial or did he change it & put on other vials (without needing to remove the needle - the vials are just popped off & a fresh one added)?
One vial can do more than one blood test but if a few were taken, it's more likely that multiple tests are being done. To be honest, I know of no doctor who does their own tests - a few do draw the blood themselves, but all I know of, send the samples off to credible labs to test. No one doctor's going to have all the equipment needed to do the testing.
