Normal Results
We will only contact you if your results show that you need follow up action. We will not contact you following a normal test result unless the tests were part of an annual review.
Booking an appointment to discuss test results
Please check all results are back before booking an appointment to discuss them. You can check they are back using your NHS account or by calling us (0151 295 8700) and speaking to our Reception Team. This is so we have all the information needed when you come to see us.
Abnormal Results
If a result is abnormal you will usually be notified by telephone, text message or letter. We may ask you to have the test repeated, to have other tests or see the doctor or nurse to discuss your result further.
