All urine, sputum and stool samples need to be brought into the practice before 12 noon any weekday.

If you provide a urine sample after 12 noon we may only be able to dip this and should the test show a possible infection you will need to provide a fresh sample the next workng day which will be sent to the hospital to confirm infection.

Stool and Sputum samples brought in after 12 noon cannot be accepted due to external collection times and you will be asked to provide a fresh sample the next working day.

Please note urine sample results can take a few days to reach the surgery depending on what tests the pathology lab need to do, in some exceptional circumstances the pathology lab may need to send the sample to another department or hospital which can delay results.
