Test Results
To obtain Test Results please contact the practice on 028 9331 5955 between 13:30 and 15:30, Monday to Friday inclusive. All results have to be checked by the doctor. If it is normal, the receptionist will give you the result in order to save you time, but if there is a problem she will arrange for you to speak to the doctor.

Please remember the following points:
- Results will only be given to the specific patient to whom they apply. In the interest of confidentiality please be prepared to identify yourself.
