print out of results

[Emidjemal]

Hi I saw an endo on the 19th may she did a few blood tests I would like the results they should have come through by now can I call them and ask ?will they give them to me without having to fight for them ? I have a print out from my gp and that was not easy

You are legally entitled to your results (under the NHS constitution?), although they can make you pay for a printout as long as they don't make a profit - they can't charge to let you copy from the screen.

Usually it takes about 3 days for GPs to get the results. Just ask surgery for a print-out and say you want them for your personal records.Make sure it has the ranges.

I had to fight for them from my endo, they gave in in the end and sent me copies, but they were intent on making me order them through records, despite being within 4 weeks of being taken. Just depends if you have a decent hospital or not

My answer to that would be"not" I'll probably have to fight for them

I called the hospital and the results have come through but the secretary told me she has to ask the endo and to call her back on Monday, which probably no!
