Newly Registered Patients

This is your chance to get to know your practice and your doctor/nurse. Please try to bring with you details of past illnesses, vaccinations, cervical smears, a list of your medications and also a urine specimen.

When you take your test you will be told how long it will be before the results are returned to the practice.

It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with your doctor if your are advised to do so.
