Getting your test results
Please note, we request that you do not assume that a result is normal if we do not contact you. The surgery will contact you if there is a significant problem with your results, but please contact us for all results as the GP may have made some suggestions or advice based on your results even if there is not a significant problem.
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 Access account
- by phoning us on Laurel House Surgery 01827 69283 or Fazeley Health Centre 01827 69283 between 2:30pm and 5pm and we will tell you what the results are
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.
If you are unsure as to whether you are able to access a patient’s records please contact the surgery or fill in our access to medical records document available at reception.
Over 16s will be required to request their own results.
It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with your doctor if your are advised to do so.
It can take up to 7 days to receive results.
