Urgent Results

We will contact you about any results that we feel need urgent attention. 

Your pathology results can take up to a week, and in rare cases a little longer. 

General Results

All test results are automatically processed and sent back to your GP electronically to be securely stored in your patient file and therefore can be monitored over time. 

A notation would be added to your records so that the relevant matter is discussed the next time you visit the doctor. 

We will attempt to phone your results to you so please ensure we have your updated contact details while you are at reception or as soon as possible afterwards to minimise delays, but 

Please be aware that it is your responsibility to follow up on the results of any investigations performed.

Rarely further procedures are necessary so it’s important we are able to discuss this with you as soon as possible. Due to data security requirements, we are unable to directly email results.

Can I get a family member’s test results?

A family member can only access your test results with your permission. 

Privacy laws make it illegal to disclose any information about a patient without their prior consent. If you want a family member to have access to your results, you will need to have that noted in your file.
