In order to
maintain confidentiality, results
will only be given to patients
themselves (or to a parent or
guardian in the case of a small
child). Please telephone after 12
noon and remember that
results may take several days to be
returned to the Surgery.
We would ask that patients always
follow up the results of their blood
test,
x-ray etc. We request tests for many
patients every week and may not
always
realise if a test result has not
come back to the surgery. If you do
not
hear anything, please do not assume
that everything is normal, ring the
surgery and the receptionist will
look up your test result. If the
doctor
has asked you to book a follow up
appointment for your results then
please
do so as the doctor will assume that
they will be seeing you if any
abnormal
results are received.
