Get test results
General Information about Test Results
When you attend a test of any kind, you will be told how long you should expect to wait for the results. This is a guideline, and we ask that you wait this time before checking for your results.
Please note that we have a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection. We will only give test results to the person they relate to unless that person has given prior permission for their release or if they’re not capable of understanding them.
There are different ways you can access the results of tests that have been done at our GP surgery.
- You can use your Patient Access account and access the results from there. Please note that results are only available once the doctor has reviewed them. If you don’t have access to your record online, please request this in your online account or ask our reception team for help at any time from 8:30am to 6pm.
- You can telephone the practice by 02086301058
Please note that the results of tests carried out during hospital visits are not normally sent to the practice.
On average takes 7 days for results to come. Your doctor will only contact you in cases where urgent medical action is required otherwise, it is the patient’s responsibility to check test results with is available on NHS APP or by calling the surgery.
Why have I been asked to have a repeat test?
If a doctor asks you to have a repeat test, it is usually because:
- The result was borderline or unclear, and the doctor wants another sample to monitor the situation or to re-check the results.
- The result is abnormal, and the doctor cannot interpret the result without further tests and has asked you to come in for more tests.
Please do not worry if the doctor has asked you for a repeat test. The doctor will speak to you or request to see you directly if they need to discuss the results.

Antenatal Self-referral
Antenatal care is the care you get from health professionals during your pregnancy. It’s sometimes called pregnancy care or maternity care. You’ll be offered appointments with a midwife, or sometimes a doctor who specialises in pregnancy and birth (an obstetrician).
You should start your antenatal care as soon as possible once you know you’re pregnant.
In London you can choose where you have your antenatal care, this will probably be your local hospital. You can self-refer directly, or if you prefer you can ask your GP.
If you already know the hospital you want your care from, you’ll find information on their website about how to self-refer. Otherwise, you can visit the My Health London website and search for hospitals in your chosen area of London.
