Getting your test results
Please telephone at any time for test results that you require. Most routine results are back with the Practice after 5 – 7 days. X-ray reports do take longer so please be prepared to wait up to 2 weeks for these and 6 – 8 weeks for any cervical smear results.
Please be aware that any diagnostic tests requested by your consultant may take longer to reach the Practice as they will go back to your consultant first out of courtesy.
Once a doctor has reviewed your test results, you can view them:
- in your NHS account (through the NHS website or NHS App)
- in your Patient Access account
- phone or visit us between 10am to 4pm and we will tell you what the results are
Blood Tests
Fasting blood is usually taken in the morning.
Test Results
There is no need to contact surgery as the doctor will contact you if necessary.
Specimens
Any samples should be reported at reception for an appointment with the nurse with ALL patient details completed prior to 4.00 p.m. for transportation to the laboratory.
