Test results are reviewed by your doctor, if the doctor has already asked you to return to the practice for results discussion please just make an appointment since the reason you will have been asked to return is that further discussion and follow up will be required no matter what the results are and this cannot be done over the phone. If it can be done over the phone, the Doctor will advise a telehealth appointment.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • It is the patient's responsibility to\u00a0follow-up their results.<\/li>\n
  • You must ring\/return to provide a fail safe way to ensure your results are seen and acted upon by a doctor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Please note:<\/strong> Individual doctors may deliver results differently. However, most commonly, results are communicated via SMS with instructions on whether a follow-up appointment is required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Confidentiality is Important<\/h3>\n

    For confidentiality reasons receptionists cannot give any results to patients at the front desk or over the phone. Make an appointment for results. 1-2 SMS and or a single recall email may be sent for a routine reminder or non urgent results. You will be sent a link via Hotdoc app to get a message from the practice - it is safe to click<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Cancel Ahead of Time<\/h3>\n

    It is very important that you phone us well before your appointment if you are unable to keep it. We always have more patients than appointments, so your failure to make that appointment available for booking means another patient has been turned away when they were most in need of our help.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Cancellation fee<\/h3>\n
    We have introduced a potential $40 cancellation fee for a standard consultation for those who fail to notify us in advance. This is to signal that cancellation of appointments is important to the doctors at this practice.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
