Colonoscopy
is a simple procedure used to examine or inspect the bowel and allows for a variety of interventions to be carried out through the colonoscope. These interventions may include taking small tissue samples (biopsies) and removal of polyps. An alternative method of examining the large bowel is barium enema. Colonoscopy has the advantage over barium enema of allowing tissue samples or biopsies to be taken. This procedure takes about 15min and is usually performed under sedation for maximum patient comfort. To find our more download our full information sheet HERE

Gastroscopy
Gastroscopy involves the use of a flexible tube to examine the upper intestinal tract including the oesophagus, stomach and duodenum. The procedure is commonly undertaken if your doctor suspects that you have an ulcer, inflammation or other abnormality of the oesophagus (the pipe which connects the throat to the stomach), the stomach or duodenum. This procedure takes about 15min and is usually performed under sedation for maximum patient comfort. To download our full information sheet click HERE
