Test results

Getting your results

Once a doctor has reviewed your test results, you can view them:

  • Online – via the NHS App or SystmOnline
  • By calling the surgery on 01626 208020 in the afternoon.

Typical Waiting Times

Please note: these are estimated timeframes and may vary due to a range of factors.

  • Blood tests: 2–7 working days
  • Urine tests: 2–7 working days
  • Stool samples: 5–10 working days

Important Information

We will not contact you with the results unless the clinician has requested a follow-up appointment or for the tests to be repeated.

Due to the high volume of tests processed, we do not have the capacity to contact every patient with normal results.

If there is a concern or your results require further action, a member of our team will contact you.

If You Call the Surgery

Our patients services team will be able to tell you if any further action is required but is not qualified to discuss the result with you.

Please Note

  • Results can take several days to be reviewed
  • Not all results require follow-up
  • If your symptoms worsen or you are concerned, please complete an online triage form for clinical review.
