Why wont the nurse give me the results?!


Question: Why wont the nurse give me the results?
I have had a sore throat for a few weeks now. The doctor took a throat culture, and put me on antibiotics. I called and the doc is out today, and the nurse said "its better that he speaks with you". Why, why , why??? If its Strep, well then I'm on antibiotics, so why not give me the results? Could it be something worse??

Answers:

Test results are disclosed by the doctor. I am a nurse and I cannot give a patient the results of any tests.
