Get test results

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 then view them:

• in your NHS Account (through the NHS website or NHS app)
• in your SystmOne account
• phone or visit us between 8.30am to 6.30pm and we will tell you what the results are

How long does it take to get my test results?

When you attend a test of any kind, you will be told how long you should expect to wait for the results. Blood test results usually take five working days to get back and be checked by your GP. If there is anything that needs discussing further, your GP will call you as soon as they get the results back. If there are no problems with the results, then you will not be contacted.
