Test Results
How and when to obtain test results from College Green Medical Practice
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)
Questions about your results
Get in touch with the surgery if you want to talk to someone about your results.
Test results information
Test results (e.g. blood, urine, X-rays) usually arrive at the surgery within 1 to 2 weeks. Some may take longer. Once received, doctors review results within 5 working days. If a result is urgent, the lab will contact the surgery, and a doctor will take action. If you haven’t been contacted, your result is likely not urgent.
How to check results
- The NHS App is the best way to check your test results, including the doctor’s analysis.
- If you don’t see your results on the NHS App, please inform the surgery using the v-Consult form on our website.
- If you wish to discuss your results further, please complete a v-Consult form to request an appointment.
Important notes
- Reception cannot give test results over the phone.
- For help signing up for the NHS App, please ask a member of the reception team.
- If you don’t have internet access, please contact reception for assistance with confirming your results.
