Test results

When a doctor or nurse arranges for a test to be taken the patient will be informed how to obtain the result.

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.

The reception team follow protocol for giving out results, they are not clinically trained and therefore are unable to read or interpret results.   On some occasions results are complicated and if this is the case we will offer you an appointment to discuss them in more details.

Please ensure you call for your test results, usually received within 5 working days after they have been taken.  Please note that some tests can take longer.  The receptionist will advise you if you need to discuss the results with your GP.

For test results please ring the practice after 11am on 0161 905 4711.
