Test Results
Please telephone the surgery between 11.00 - 16.00, Monday to Friday for the results of any tests you have undergone. The telephone is not so busy then and the Reception staff are more able to assist you.
All results are viewed by a doctor who will advise of any further action required. This message will then be passed on via the reception staff.
When you take your test you will be told how long it will be before the results are returned to the practice.
It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with your doctor if your are advised to do so.
