Results
At the time of consultation, your doctors will advise when they expect your results and whether you can call or need to make a return appointment. For test results please call our reception staff. They will direct your call to one of our nurses or an appropriate doctor. If you speak to a doctor to get your results, the call may incur a consultation fee. Enquire about this at the start of the conversation if you are concerned.
