Getting your test results
If your test results show that you need more tests or treatment, we will contact you.
Once a doctor has reviewed your test results, you can view them:
- Test results can take up to 7 -10 days to come back from the lab. Since our telephones are very busy in the early morning, we ask you to telephone for test results (eg blood, urine, x-ray) after 2.00pm each day, except Fridays.
Questions about your results
If you want to talk to someone about your results, fill out our test results request form and someone will be in touch.
To ensure confidentiality, we will only release results to the patient, unless alternative arrangements have been agreed in writing.
The doctor will normally contact the patient directly if there is something to discuss. However we would remind patients that it is their responsibility to follow-up any results themselves.
