Pathology Results

Most of the pathology and radiology results will be available within 1 week. Please make an appointment with the doctor to get the results. No results will be given over the phone. It is definitely NOT "a no news is good news" policy. For grossly abnormal results, we will contact you to return urgently. It is important to let us know your current address and contact phone number.

Appointments

You are required to make an appointment before coming to see the doctor.  We will try our best to keep your appointment on time.  If you need more time with the doctor, please let the receptionist know about it when you make the booking.  Should you have an emergency, please tell the receptionist when you arrive.  Please let us know prior to your appointment time if you need to cancel or change the appointment, so we can allocate the time to see other patients who need it.
