Your family doctor receives blood work and diagnostic imaging reports within a week. MRI’s/ CT Scans/ Mammograms within 2 weeks. Some doctors will ask you to book a visit a few weeks after you have done your tests, others will say that you will be called only if you have an abnormal result. Others will book a follow-up appointment a few months after your first visit for both follow-up and results review. This plan should be discussed with your doctor during your visit. If you want to have a discussion with your doctor about your results, please let us know and your physician will decide how the results are relayed to you. It could be a simple message from them or it could be an appointment for discussion. For any abnormal results, your physician will always communicate with you to let you know and discuss results directly with you. We ask patients to avoid multiple calls for results relaying.
