Whilst every endeavour will be made to see you at your appointment time, please be aware we run an inpatient, A&E, and Minor Injuries service alongside our GP service so there may be a short delay depending on workload when you arrive.
Your GP should have given you a paper copy of your x-ray request, even if they have requested your X-ray digitally. Please remember to bring this with you.
Results
Following the examination, the report from the X-rays will be sent directly to your doctor. This will usually be within 10 days.
Please contact your doctor if you have not received your results after this time.
