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 Patient Services account
- by phoning us on 020 8854 0356 after 11am
Note that the practice has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection and 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.
At your appointment, you will be told how long it will be before the results are returned to the practice. It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with your doctor if you are advised to do so.
Most test results are available within the week after the test.
Make sure to find out when you are with your Doctor or Nurse how to obtain the results. It usually will be one of 2 options:
- we will only inform you if there is a problem
- your Doctor will inform you
