I got tests done at the doctor a week ago, and they haven't called. How long should I wait to call them?

Question

I got blood work and a urine culture a week ago, and they said they would call. I don't want to be a pain and call them, but shouldn' t the results be back by now?

Answer 1

call them now

a week is all it takes to get blood test results back these days

they probably forgot.

Answer 2

Wait.

Answer 3

You could call them because 9/10 times they forgot about you and they have to get your paperwork faxed to them so just call them and give them a reminder to be on the safe side.

Answer 4

You should def. call them. Dont be shy. They usually forget and then you will never know the results. They dont care if you call. Its your health anyway - the most important person is you
