Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral for pathology testing?
Yes, a referral from a healthcare professional, such as a GP or specialist, is generally required for most pathology tests. The referral ensures the correct tests are ordered based on your symptoms or medical history, and it also allows Medicare or private insurance to cover some or all of the costs.
How long does it take to receive pathology results?
Pathology results typically take 1-3 days for common tests such as blood and urine analysis. More complex tests, like genetic or specialised diagnostics, may take up to several weeks. The exact timing depends on the type of test and the laboratory’s processing times. Always consult your doctor for specifics.
What does a pathology report include?
A pathology report typically includes patient information, the type of sample tested, details about the test conducted, the results of the analysis and a summary or interpretation of the findings by the pathologist. It may also include recommendations for further testing or follow-up based on the results.
Can I request a copy of my pathology results?
Yes, you can request a copy of your pathology results. Patients have the right to access their medical information, including test results. You can request your results directly from the pathology service or through your healthcare provider, depending on the clinic’s or lab’s policies. Always check with your doctor for guidance.
