Your process begins with a consultation with your GP, where you will discuss your health concerns and symptoms in detail. Your GP will carefully review your medical history and the specifics of your condition. Based on this comprehensive assessment, your GP will determine if a referral to a specialist is necessary to further investigate or treat your condition. If so, they will guide you through the next steps, ensuring you receive the appropriate care from a specialist best suited to address your needs.
Your GP will provide you with a referral letter introducing you to the specialist. This letter will include a detailed summary of your medical history, test results, and any other pertinent information that will help the specialist understand your condition and needs. By including these details, the referral letter ensures a smooth transition of care and helps the specialist make informed decisions regarding your treatment.
You can typically expect to receive your results quite promptly. For routine tests such as blood and urine analyses, results are usually available within a day, and in some cases, you may even receive them on the same day. These tests are generally straightforward and processed quickly. However, if the tests are more specialised, such as those requiring detailed analysis or the growth of bacterial cultures, there may be a longer wait time. These more complex tests involve additional procedures and time to ensure accurate results, so it is not unusual for them to take a bit longer. Rest assured, we will keep you informed and update you as soon as your results are ready.
