We are trying to improve the ways you can receive your test results.

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

Some results are received quickly while others take longer, please allow 4 working days before enquiring.

X-ray results usually take a minimum of 2 weeks.

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