Test Results
Please remember, if you have a blood test or other
investigation, it is your responsibility to contact the
surgery about the result. The surgery will only contact
you should the doctor consider that further action needs
to be taken. Patients should phone the practice for test
results after 2pm. The time interval before
telephoning for results is:
Blood Tests 7 working days
X-rays 14 working days
Cervical smear tests 6 weeks
The doctor will advise you if the interval is likely
to be significantly different. To maintain
confidentiality, results will only be given to the
patient concerned or to parents if the patient is under
16.
