The results of blood tests and x-rays arrive from the hospital (this can take up to 7 days for routine tests) and then have to be checked by your doctor before any result can be given to you.  Please help us by ringing on 01536 522633 for results from 12 - 3 p.m., when the telephone lines are less busy.  If you need to speak to the doctor the receptionist will advise you of the best time to make contact.

We are not able to give test results to anyone other than the patient, unless we have written permission to do otherwise.  For children under the age of 16 years, results will be given to a parent.

We expect that the patient will contact the Practice for the results of any tests or investigations.  Only in exceptional circumstances will the Practice contact a patient.
