Test results

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:

  • in your NHS account (through the NHS website or NHS App)
  • phone or visit us between 10am to 4pm and we will tell you what the results are

Tests sent to the Hospital for processing take 3 or 4 days to process, so please allow a few days before ringing for results. If the test was ordered by the hospital please ring the relevant Hospital department for your result.

Our reception staff are not qualified to comment on results therefore it is your responsibility to check them and make any necessary follow-up appointment with the doctor.

Non-urgent advice: Please note

Please note that we do 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.
