Blood Test Results

Blood results:

 

Due to the large number of tests taken on a daily basis it is not possible for patients to be contacted individually with results. If you have not received a text/call within 2 weeks after your tests were performed, it is important that you contact the surgery for your results and do not assume that ' no news is good news' . 

Occasionally samples are not processed or results are not communicated by the lab.

​

Please call in the afternoon and leave your name and contact phone number and a member of staff will get back to you with your results within 48 hours.

If an urgent result is received, the doctor on duty will contact you by phone.  

Please update contact information if phone numbers change.  ​

 

The results of tests that were requested by a hospital doctor will be sent directly to the doctor who requested them, and they will then communicate the results to you. If you have not received results requested by the hospital  - it is advisable that you contact the consultant secretary directly.

Portmarnock Family Practice staff can only report on results of tests that they have requested or performed for you.
