The practice has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection. We will only release test results to the person to whom they relate, unless that person has given prior permission for the release of their data.

How Long Results Take

When you have a test, you will be told approximately how long it will be before the results are returned to the practice. As a general guide:

  • We recommend waiting 5 working days before following up your result
  • Some specialist tests may take longer — your GP or nurse will advise you at the time
  • If your result requires urgent attention, we will contact you directly

No news is not always good news. If you have not heard back within the expected timeframe, please call us or check your results online. Do not assume that no contact means everything is normal.

Questions About Your Results

If you want to talk to someone about your results, please call us on 020 8390 5321 after 2pm, Monday to Friday. Our reception team can let you know whether results are back, and arrange a follow-up appointment with a GP or nurse if needed.

If your results require further discussion, a GP will contact you directly or you may be asked to book a follow-up appointment.
