Common questions

Still have a question? Our team can help you choose the right appointment.

Do you do endoscopy on site?

We assess you and arrange your gastroscopy or colonoscopy promptly at a trusted endoscopy unit.

Which test do I need?

We decide with you — gastroscopy looks at the upper gut, colonoscopy at the bowel.

I had a positive FIT test — can you help?

Yes — we assess and arrange colonoscopy on the right pathway.

Will you explain the results?

Yes — we review the findings with you and arrange any follow-up.

Will I see a GP or a consultant?

This clinic is GP-led: you are assessed by one of our GMC-registered doctors, who arranges tests where they are indicated and refers you on to the right specialist when that is the best next step.

Do I need a GP referral?

No. You can book directly with us. If you have a referral letter or previous results, bring them along — they help us avoid repeating tests.

How much will tests cost?

Consultation fees are published on our price list. Any test, scan or treatment is explained and priced before you go ahead, so there are no surprises.

Will you write to my NHS GP?

With your consent, yes — we send a clear summary so your care stays joined up. If you would rather we did not, just tell us at booking.
