Test Results
If your GP has sent you for a blood test, x-ray,ultrasound scan or MRI / CT scan, you will need to telephone the surgery Monday to Friday between 2pm and 4pm by selecting option 2 when telephoning the surgery for the result.
As a guide, the following length of time to reach the surgery:
- Blood test - 1 week (though some may take longer)
- X-ray - 3 to 4 week
- Ultrasound scan - 3 to 4 weeks
- MRI / CT scan - 3 weeks
- Smear results - up to 6 week
Any test requested by the hospital will go back to the Hospital Consultant. Please contact the relevant hospital secretary for the results.
Results will only be given directly to the patient due to confidentiality.
Carers and relatives must obtain consent from the patient giving authorisation to release information.
To avoid refusal please ensure that we have already received authorisation.
