i have a doubt and i would appreciate if someone who is done with the exam could guide me ... after you have placed an order in this case what is the best way to advance the clock? coz when i try to schedule at a future date when results are available intermittently a window pops giving the condition of the patient at a time before his scheduled appointment..
