How Do I: Get Test Results

The surgery will contact you should a result be abnormal requiring further treatment or investigation.

Most blood results come back within a week but some take longer.

Cervical smear results are sent to you directly at home and usually take 6-12 weeks to process.

Tissue sample results from minor operations generally take up to 2 weeks - we would contact you if there are any concerns.

Swabs taken, eg. from wounds or urine samples, usually take at least 3 days.

If you would like to know your test result please leave a message at reception for the practice nurse to phone you with the result.
