Getting your test results
If your test results show that you need more tests or treatment, we will contact you.
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 Online Consultation account
- phone or visit us between 10am to 4pm and we will tell you what the results are
When a laboratory test or x-ray has been carried out for you, we will advise how to obtain the result and whether a follow-up appointment is recommended.
It is possible to obtain the result either in person or on the telephone. This confidential service is carried out by trained staff at specific hours after the doctor or nurse has looked at the result.
Many results require a fuller explanation; in these cases, the doctor or nurse may choose to give you the result themselves or may ask that you book an appointment.
