Test results

Getting your test results

When you have had a test, the doctor will advise you of the follow-up action following your test and how you will receive your results:

  • If no further action is required, we will not contact you
  • Make an appointment to see a doctor 7 to 10 days/as directed after you have had your test (if advised)
  • Make a telephone appointment to see a doctor 7 to 10 days/as directed after you have had your test (if advised)

There is no need for you to routinely contact us for your results.

Systems are in place to ensure patients are contacted immediately regarding any results requiring urgent action.

Once a doctor has reviewed your test results, you can view them:
