Test Results Request
If you are waiting to receive the results to tests done in the Practice please use this form to request them.
We will normally contact you when the results have been received and reviewed.
Test results are provided by the doctor or consultant who arranged them. So, for example, if your GP requested an x-ray or blood test then the result will come back to them and they will inform you of the outcome. If you have been referred to a hospital consultant and they have arranged a biopsy, the hospital consultant will inform you of the outcome. The hospital consultant will also provide a summary of the test in due course, which are saved to your medical records.
You can access your results via the Patient Online Access.
Routine Tests. Routine tests take normally up to 1 week before the results are received by the Practice and the GP has had the opportunity to review the results (Your doctor will advise if a test takes longer).
Cervical Smear Tests. Women who have had a cervical smear test will receive a letter with their result direct from the NHS, (not the Practice), normally within 2 weeks.
If you have not been contacted with your results in the times stated above, please contact the Practice using this form in the first instance.
Please note, we have a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection. In this respect we will only give out results to the person they relate to unless that person has given prior permission for their release or if they are not capable of understanding them.
