Doctors may want to see patients for confidential or more complex results. These often necessitate a follow up appointment for treatment or if more testing is required. If your doctor needs to see you for your results, a staff member will call and inform you to make an appointment. If you do not hear from your doctor or from a member of staff, please call reception and ask for your doctor to give you a call back with your results.
