When a laboratory test or x-ray has been carried out for you, we will advise how to obtain the result and whether a follow-up appointment is recommended.
It is possible to obtain the result either in person or on the telephone. This confidential service is carried out by trained staff at specific hours after the doctor or nurse has looked at the result.
Many results require a fuller explanation; in these cases, the doctor or nurse may choose to give you the result themselves or may ask that you book an appointment.
