When you take your test you will be told how long it will take for the results to be returned to the practice.
Getting your test results
It is the responsibility of the patient to contact the practice to obtain their test results and to make an appointment to discuss them with a doctor or nurse if advised to do so.
If your test results show that you need more tests or treatment, we will contact you.
The practice has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection. We will only release test results to the person to whom they relate unless that person has given prior permission for the release of this data or they are not capable of understanding the results.
Once a doctor has reviewed your test results, you can view them:
- in your NHS account (through the NHS website or NHS App)
- in your SystmOne account
- by phoning us on 01332 519160 after 2pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday
- as a text message (if you would like to receive this service please ask reception for a registration form)
