00Results and insurers
Most answers here are given in the room. Everything that goes to a laboratory has a promised turnaround, and an abnormal result is always a phone call from the consultant, never a letter you open alone.
| Result | Turnaround |
|---|---|
| Biologics screening bloods | 5 working days |
| Letter to your GP | 2 working days |
If something is abnormal
Abnormal histology is phoned by the surgeon who took the sample, the day the report is signed, with the plan and a date. We do not post cancer results, and we do not leave them on voicemail: if we cannot reach you we keep trying and send a message asking you to call Rosie.
Insurers billed directly
Billed directly: give Rosie your policy number and authorisation code and you pay only your excess. Most insurers want a GP referral first. Mole mapping, surveillance plans and cosmetic removals are not usually covered; we tell you which before you book.
00Questions
Answers from the consultants who run it. Anything else: ring Rosie.
Not to book. You can self-refer for everything we do. If you are using health insurance, your insurer will usually want a GP referral before they authorise the consultation; Rosie will tell you exactly what yours needs.
Yes, within two working days, unless you ask us not to. Your GP needs to know what has been prescribed and what to watch for.
00Book
Book straight into the clinic, ring Rosie for a same-day slot, or send a photo first and let Claire choose the appointment.
