My doctors has a recorded answering system with options (you can't make an appointment via reception - you have to speak to a nurse or GP first and they make an appointment if appropriate). There is a test results option open for certain hours in the morning though they can only give results if they have been checked by a GP.
My GP rings me if there is something concerning come up - she has done this a few times so even if I forgot (though I do have frequent tests) they would ring me if they needed to.
