Test Results
Last Updated: Monday, 25 September 2023Important: Advice to Patients
Please do not leave a sample at the surgery unless you have been asked to do so by one of our clinicians.
When to return your sample to the surgery
If one of our clinicians has asked you to provide a sample please return it to the surgery before 10.30am so that it can be collected that day by the specialist courier. Most samples will not keep overnight and the test will have to be repeated.
How to return your sample to the surgery
Containers can be obtained from reception. Please do not use any other kind of container to keep your sample.
Containers must be labelled with your name, date of birth and date and time of the specimen. Most results are returned electronically throughout the day.
When the surgery will contact you
We will only contact you about your test results if there is any follow up action necessary.
