Test Results
Please do not attend reception to ask for test results.
Please telephone the surgery after 2.30pm for all test results. Allow one week before contacting the surgery about the results of routine tests and x-rays. Letters and results from a Consultant can often take two weeks. Smear results can take much longer and are posted to you.
Note that the practice has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection and we will only release test results to the person to whom they relate unless that person has given prior permission for the release of this data or they are not capable of understanding the results.
When you take your test you will be told how long it will be before the results are returned to the practice.
It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with your doctor if you are advised to do so.
