"colonoscopy results"

About: Golden Jubilee National Hospital / Outpatients

(as a service user),

staff at the Golden Jubilee were excellent and the scope was carried out in a professional manner .On discharge I was advised that my biopsy results would be available in 10 days and to contact my GP. 4 weeks later and results are still not available - reception staff from the GP practice have informed me that the pathology results always take a number of weeks. 

i feel this has added to my anxiety regarding my results

It is lovely to read that staff at the hospital were excellent; however I was disappointed to read that the lack of results to your GP has added to your anxiety. I am very sorry for this and would be keen to help resolve this for you. Please contact me on 0141 951 5951, to allow me to look into this.

Kind regards

Paula
