Results of tests are only given by our secretarial staff and, therefore, you will need to ring between 11.30 - 12.30 Monday - Friday and ask to speak to your doctors' secretary.

The time in which results come back can vary. Below is a guideline, but can change depending on type of result and if these have to be sent off to a laboratory outside our area.

Blood results: 5-7 working days
X-rays: (requested by GP) Approx. 3 weeks
Swabs: 2-3 weeks (can take longer if sent away)
Cervical smear: 7 weeks approx
Ultrasound, MRI scans, Cardiology reports etc can take alot longer.
