Is there a website/app to access biopsy results?

Been waiting over 3 weeks for biopsy results now, and I think my GP surgery are getting tired of me phoning up to ask if the results have been received. Is there some kind of NHS app/website where I can check for biopsy results instead? I'd rather just refresh that all day than have to keep phoning up at this point.

    SNAP! I'm in the same position I'm waiting 4 weeks this Thursday and am going a bit mad waiting I have been ringing my doctors as well but to no avail! Really wish there was a way to check results online... All the best for your results

    All the best for your results too. I really wish they would set up some kind of results website because I feel like such a pain ringing up all the time!

    Then people would be flooding online forums asking what the results meant as the terminology is usually beyond us mere mortals.

    You see it happening from time to time on here. People somehow accessing their results (maybe an American thing, i dunno), and asking what it actually means. Folk looking up certain words on google, convincing themselves they have cancer, only to be told all is fine once someone has interpreted those results that is qualified to do so.

    We got to see the biopsy report for my wife, and I couldn't make head nor tail of it. Could have been written in Russian for all i understood.
