Seems like a long time to get the biopsy results back. Assuming that the latest that the biopsy was forwarded to Stanford was on Friday, unless everyone in the department is off this week, the results should be available in a day or two. They just have to read the slides.
I would call your ENT and ask him to call them and get the results faxed to him. You've got nothing to lose by asking. I had a biopsy on a Friday and got the results faxed to my office before dinner the following Tuesday.
Good luck.
