If you have had a blood test, x-ray or scan it is important you find out the result.
Whilst we try to contact everyone with abnormal results, you should not assume that no news is good news. If you have not heard from us within two weeks, or you cannot see your results online or on your NHS App, you can contact the practice between 11am and 2pm. You can also email the practice to chase up your results.
Please ensure we have your up to date contact details, especially your mobile phone number and email.
How do I find out my result?
NHS App
You can check your NHS App to view your test results.
Online
You can also access your test results via online services. Once you register for online services, then it’s simply a matter of logging into the portal and visiting the ‘patient record’ section and clicking on ‘view test results’.
You will be able to read the Doctor’s comment and see the actual result.
If you need further tests or treatment then this will be indicated alongside the results and you can arrange this via the online portal or by contacting reception.
By phone
Contact the surgery between 11am and 2pm, two weeks after your test. This allows enough time for the results to come back from the laboratory.
Please do not ask a relative or friend to telephone the surgery on your behalf. Results will only be given to the patient and not to a patient’s representative (except in the case of children, or when prior written consent has been given for a carer to act on your behalf).
