Test results

Clinicians ordering blood tests or other investigations will discuss with you how to get the results. You can access your results via the NHS App or online services, you must be registered for SystmOnline. Complete the online access form available from our website or from the Surgery. To activate your online services, we require photo ID. Bring your form and photo to the reception desk to register in person. We will then give you a username and password. If you need to telephone for results please do so between 2:00pm and 5:00pm.

• Most blood test results are available within 7 days.
• Urine tests within a week.
• Cervical smear tests take up to 3 weeks.

Before leaving the surgery you should expect to have a clear understanding of when and how test results will be made known to you.

Your GP will file the results in your notes and only contact you if appropriate. If you wish to discuss your result in detail, you will need to arrange an appointment to speak to a GP or Practice Nurse.

Please note we are only able to give test results to the patient themselves (over the age of 16 years) unless we have written consent given permission to pass the information to another named person. Forms are available at reception.
