Test Results Request

We are trying to improve the ways you can receive your test results. We hope to have some results available for you online/using this website.

Please note, we request that you do not assume that a result is normal if we do not contact you. The surgery will contact you if there is a significant problem with your results, but please contact us for all results as the GP may have made some suggestions or advice based on your results even if there is not a significant problem.

When the test results will be available

Approximate number of working days for tests ordered at surgery:

• Blood Tests – 2-3 working days unless otherwise advised
• X-Ray – up to 6 weeks
• Urine Test – 5 working days
• Biopsy – 8 weeks
• Smear Test – 6-8 weeks
• Sputum test – 4-5 weeks

For investigations ordered by a hospital doctor please ask at the hospital how they intend to relay the result to you.
