Test Results

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)
  • phone or visit us on 02476 689343 between 10am to 4pm and we will tell you what the results are

Questions about your results

If you want to talk to someone about your results, submit a request online and someone will be in touch.

Please allow 3 working days for your test results to come back from the hospital unless your doctor has advised otherwise. Please note that X-ray results take a little longer, usually 10 days. Sometimes, we cannot always give full results over the phone. If the result is complicated, or if the doctor wants to see you about the result, we will offer you an appointment. We will only give results to the person who has had the test. When we receive an abnormal test result and it requires action, we will contact you by phone or letter. Please ensure we have your contact details.
