Tests & Results

Getting your test results

The quickest and easiest way to get your test results is by having online access.  By signing up to SystmOnline and the Airmid App, you can look up your test results at your convenience, from anywhere. With online access you can also see your medical records and manage your prescriptions.

Click here for further information on this service and to sign up.  Alternatively, ring 0300 234 5555 and speak to one of our reception team.

Test results can take up to 7 working days to come back from the laboratory. The clinician who ordered the test will then need to read and interpret the result. If the result is normal we will not contact you.

Our reception team will be able to tell you if your result is normal and if any further action is required. However, please bear in mind that they are not clinicians, and therefore are unable to discuss any results with you.

Please note that we cannot report on any tests that were taken by another service, i.e. a hospital or other community services. You will need to contact the service that originally requested the test to obtain your result. 

If your test was ordered by a clinician at Addenbrooke’s hospital you can access your test results, along with your letters and manage your hospital appointments via MyChart. For further information and to sign up click here

Please note that Granta Medical Practices do not have direct access to hospital letters and test results. It may take some time for this information to appear on your GP records.
