Test results

The surgery has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection and we will only release test results to the person to whom they relate unless that person has given prior written permission for the release of this data or they are not capable of understanding the results.

When you take your test you will be told how long it will be before the results are returned to the practice. It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with a clinician if you are advised to do so.

Getting your test results

If your test results show that you need more tests or treatment, we will contact you.

Once a clinician has reviewed your test results, you can view them:

  • in your NHS account (through the NHS website or NHS App)
  • in your SystmOne account
  • by phoning us on 01594 542239 after 11am and we will tell you what the results are

Questions about your results

If you want to talk to someone about your results, fill out a test results request form and someone will be in touch.
