Lab Results
Sometimes your doctor needs to take a sample of blood or urine either to discover what is wrong with you or to measure something in your blood so that the right medication is given to you. These tests could be anything from blood sugar to a full blood count or a sample of tissue to test for cancer.
While urine can generally be tested in the surgery, blood and other specimens are usually sent away for testing at a laboratory. Most results come back within 48 hours unless a very rare test is needed which has to go to a specialist lab further away when it might take a little longer.
**Laboratory results are reviewed regularly as they arrive to the practice. If there is a concerning result, the nurse or doctor will contact you. If you have questions about your results, please phone and ask to speak with the nurse. With the Manage My Health app you are also able to see your results once the doctor has reviewed them.
