Tests & Results

Please call the surgery after 2pm to enquire about your test results – our staff will have more time to deal with your request in the afternoon.

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 and viewed by your doctor; this is usually 5 -7 days. 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.
