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 online service account
- phone us on 02476 490909 or visit us between 10am to 4pm and we will tell you what the results are
Questions about your results
If you want to talk to someone about your results, fill out our test results request form and someone will be in touch.
On average please allow 5 working days for your test results to come back from the hospital unless your doctor has advised otherwise.
Please note that X-ray results take a little longer, usually within 7-10 days.
Sometimes, we cannot always give full results over the phone because of the Data Protection Act and confidentiality. If the result is complicated, or if the doctor wants to see you about the result, we will offer you an appointment.
We are only permitted to give results to the person who has had the test.
