Important Notice: MK Pathology IT Issues – Duplication of Test Results
The Milton Keynes Pathology department recently upgraded their IT system. While this was carefully tested, some technical problems have been identified that may mean duplication of results reaching your GP. We are working closely with your GP practice to fix these as soon as possible.
We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and patience.
Best Regards
Nazia HussainPathology Services Manager
There have been some problems in attaching results to patient records. We have worked closely to support the team at Milton Keynes hospital and reduce the impact on our patients.
How does this affect you?
Please be reassured that all results have been reviewed by your GP and action taken to contact the patient where required. Patients may not be able to see their results or may find the result appearing on their record a couple of times. Patients may also have been contacted to repeat tests as result is not being found by automated systems. If you have had the blood test, this won't need repeating unless your GP has specifically asked for a repeat.
Results from 1st September onwards are being attached to the record without issue and Milton Keynes Hospital are working on ensuring all results from 14th July to end of September are attached to your record correctly.

At the same time, Dr Hari Durairaj will be stepping into the role of Senior Partner. Dr Hari brings a wealth of experience and leadership to the practice, and he will continue to lead us with the same dedication and vision that we’ve all worked hard to maintain.
