It will depend on how urgent the biopsy results were requested. If you had an urgent referral you would generally expect the results between 2 and 4 weeks after the biopsy. It could be a shorter wait than this, or due to the pressures on the NHS at the moment, we are hearing of people who are waiting longer.
It is usually the consultant who will give you the results either in a letter, by telephone, or face to face.
If you are concerned that you are waiting too long for the results, you could speak with your GP as they may be able to chase them on your behalf.
