We know how important it is to stay informed about your health. At Braidwood Doctors, we use a secure SMS system to notify you when your test results have been reviewed by your doctor.

Please Don’t Call for Results

​Our reception team cannot provide test results over the phone or by email.
To protect your privacy and ensure accuracy, results are shared only by SMS or during a consultation with your doctor.​

Need a Copy of Your Results? Here Are Your Options:

​1. Check Your My Health Record

​If you’re registered, pathology results usually appear 7 days after finalisation.
Note: Radiology (scans/imaging) won’t show here — you’ll need to contact your radiology provider directly (e.g., I-MED, Laverty, DHM).
Download the My Health App to view results on your phone.

2. During a GP Appointment

Need urgent access or want to ask questions?
Book a telehealth or in-person appointment with your GP — this is the best way to understand your results.

3. Request a Copy Online

Already spoken to your doctor or received a “no action needed” SMS?
You can submit a Results Request Form online, and we’ll email your results after doctor approval.
Note: We can only release results if they’ve been marked as “no follow-up needed” or already discussed in a consult.

4. Via Your Specialist

If you're seeing a specialist, they can request your results directly from the pathology or radiology provider.
This is often the fastest and simplest option.

We’re here to help.

How We Manage Results

​Your results will be reviewed by your doctor.

Your doctor will determine if your results:
• Require no further action
• Are non-urgent but require follow-up
• Urgently require follow-up

Once all results are reviewed, you’ll receive an SMS notifying you if you need to return for an appointment.

Note: If you’ve had multiple tests, the SMS won’t be sent until all results are back and reviewed together.

How You’ll Receive Your Results​

Once all your test results are back and reviewed, you’ll receive a secure SMS from us.

The message will let you know whether a follow-up appointment is needed or not.

Please allow up to five business days for this SMS to arrive.
