Q. It's been over 2 months and I still haven't received my lab reports back. What should I do?

Our clinic policy states that: it is your responsibility to book an appointment after you have completed any lab or imaging to review your results. Even though we try our best to make sure all results are appropriately reviewed, electronic and human errors are always a possibility. With patients calling us for their results, it ensures that nothing falls through the cracks. Usually, most bloodwork takes 1 week to return, reports for imaging or biopsies may take 2-4 weeks.

Q. What is your clinic policy?

You can read over our clinic policy. Patients should have received and signed a copy of the clinic policy when they first became patients at FCM. We may ask patients that don't have a clinic policy on file to sign a new one.
