Prescriptions & Test Results<\/h1>\n<\/div>

Test Results<\/h2>\n

Results for most tests can take up to three working days or longer. If the results of your laboratory tests are abnormal or require further treatment we will contact you by Telephone\/Email\/Text.<\/p>\n

If the results of your laboratory tests are normal it is our policy not to routinely contact patients. If you wish to confirm your test results please phone the surgery and ask to speak with one of our nurses.<\/p>\n

YOU CAN HAVE NORMAL RESULTS AND STILL BE UNWELL \u2013 IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU RE-ATTEND IF YOUR SYMPTOMS CONTINUE OR WORSEN.<\/p>\n

In accordance with Privacy Act guidelines \u2013 test results will only be given out to the patient, except in the case of children under 16 years or in exceptional circumstances.<\/p>\n

Prescriptions<\/h2>\n

We require 3 days to process repeat prescriptions. We do not process same day prescriptions via the website but if you require a same day prescription please phone the surgery and the cost will be $30. Repeat prescriptions are only available for stable medical conditions which have had medication previously prescribed by one of our doctors. Unless previously agreed, you must have been seen for this condition in the past 6 months. Many conditions and patients require 3 monthly visits.<\/p>\n

Repeat prescriptions are at the doctor\u2019s discretion and you may be contacted to make an appointment if a consultation is required.<\/p>\n

PATIENTS ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO PICK UP PRESCRIPTIONS FROM THE SURGERY.<\/p>\n

IF YOU WISH TO LEAVE A PHONE MESSAGE WITH YOUR REPEAT PRESCRIPTION REQUEST \u2013 REMEMBER TO LEAVE DETAILS OF ALL THE MEDICATIONS YOU REQUIRE AND THE NAME OF THE PHARMACY WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR PRESCRIPTION SENT.<\/p>\n
