Important Update on Test Results


We wish to inform our patients about a significant incident and ongoing technical
issues that have occurred at the laboratories of Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS
Trust, which have impacted both the digital upload of and processing of test results
to GP IT systems in Leeds and Bradford.


If you have had blood tests from the 3rd December 2024, you may impacted by this
issue. We would encourage you to check the NHS App or your online records to see
if the results you were expecting are available.


If you are concerned that any results are missing, please contact the practice, and
we will liaise with the laboratories at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust on your
behalf to resolve the issue.


We understand that this may cause frustration or concern, and we sincerely
apologise for any inconvenience caused. This is out of the practices control. If you
have been affected and wish to escalate your concerns please contact the Patient
Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) by email: patientexperience.leedsth@nhs.net,
Tel: 0113 2066261 or post: Patient Experience Department Trust Headquarters
