How long would it take for a doctors surgery to send blood test results to another surgery? It has been 2 week?

How prolonged does it take to get a formula of a blood test, afterwards send them onto an additional operation – we would pretence which is usually a week during a many to send them on.
Basically, a in isolation hospital which is watchful upon being sent a formula still havent recieved them 2 weeks after we had a red blood exam during an NHS doctors surgery..
Is this receiving a normal volume of time or should we precipitate them along?

    Depending on how busy the lab is it can take about a week to get the results to the doctors.

    Because of how long it’s been since you had the test I would recommend getting back in touch with the lab to let them know that your doctor’s office still hasn’t received the results of the bloodwork.

    I am in the U.S. and we sometimes have this problem. I ran in to this with my mom trying to get some of her bloodwork. It took us 4 weeks to get the results. She kept getting in touch with the doctor’s office to see if they got the report the answer was no. They kept saying, "We’ll ask them to fax it over" and I told her not to take their word for it and call the lab herself to ask them to send the results to the doctor’s office.
