Many people wonder if their doctor’s receptionist can give them test results. The answer is maybe. It really depends on the receptionist and the doctor. Some doctor’s receptionists are not allowed to give out test results because they are not medical professionals. Other doctor’s receptionists are allowed to give out test results because they have been given specific training on how to do so. The best way to find out if your doctor’s receptionist can give you test results is to ask them.
