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 Access account
- by phoning us on 020 3883 5800 between 3pm and 6pm
We will only give test results to the patient who had them. Reception staff are allowed to tell you that a result has been marked as normal or not requiring action, but they cannot discuss them in any more detail than this. If the doctor asked to see you after the test had been done, please keep your appointment, even if the result is normal.
Do not be alarmed if you are told that the doctor wants to see you to discuss your results – this does not normally mean that there is something seriously wrong!
We will always tell you if we need to see you urgently.
