Test Results

 

How and when to obtain test results from the surgery

Getting your test results

Blood tests, swabs and urine samples are sent to the laboratory daily. The results are computerised and usually received back two or three days later.

In order for the doctor to comment on the result, it is advisable to contact Bower Mount Medical Practice after 10am.

How to request your results

Should you require any further medical information, please phone the practice to book a phone call with the GP. Reception staff are not medically trained to discuss test results. X-ray results should be discussed with the GP - receptionists can only let you know if the result has been received and/or if the GP has commented on the result. This is usually 10 to 14 days after the X-ray was concluded.

Should you wish to give consent for a person phoning on your behalf to receive your results, please obtain a form from reception. If there is a change of name, address or telephone number for you or a family member, it is your responsibility to update them from time to time. Learn how to update your personal details
