Laboratory Tests or Investigations:
Most test results will arrive at our office 7 days after being performed. They will arrive directly to the physician who ordered them. Therefore, other physicians may not be immediately aware of a patient’s test results. Patients are requested to book a follow-up appointment with the same physician who ordered them. If patients are concerned, curious or still having symptoms while waiting for test results, patients are encouraged to take advantage of our open scheduling system for the next available appointment with the ordering physician.
Administrative and nursing staff do not have access to your file and thus will not be able to confirm if your test results have arrived. Please book an appointment 7 days after the test is performed to review your results.
While we attempt to contact all individuals with abnormal or concerning results;
DO NOT ASSUME THAT NO CALL IS GOOD NEWS. All results should be reviewed with the ordering physician 7 days after being performed.
