Most blood test results are available within 2-5 days, but this can vary depending on the test. You will receive an SMS notification once your results are ready, and a practitioner will review them with you. If it’s been more than 5 days, please contact Abby support at support@abbyhealth.app or send us a message via the app.
Pathology test results are processed by external laboratories and sent directly to Abby Health. The turnaround time depends on the type of test.

How Will I Receive My Results?
- You will receive an SMS when your results are available.
- Your results must be reviewed with a practitioner for quality care.
- Book a follow-up consultation to go over the results with your practitioner.
Why Do I Need a Practitioner to Review My Results?
- Ensuring accurate interpretation – A practitioner will explain what the numbers mean in context.
- Identifying next steps – If any values are outside the normal range, your practitioner will discuss follow-up testing or treatment.
- Compliance with telehealth rules – Results cannot be sent to you unless approved by your practitioner, for privacy reasons. If you'd like a copy of your results, please request it during your results consultation, and they will be sent to you following your appointment.
