Colonoscopy: During this, doctor will view your entire colon using a thin, flexible, lighted tube with a camera at the end. During the procedure, your doctor can also take small samples of tissue (biopsy) for laboratory analysis.
Gastroscopy: In this procedure, Doctors will visually examine your upper digestive system with a tiny camera on the end of a long, flexible tube. A specialist in diseases of the digestive system (gastroenterologist) uses a gastroscopy to diagnose and, treat conditions that affect the oesophagus, stomach and beginning of the small intestine (duodenum).

Is Endoscopy Painful?
Is Endoscopy Painful?
The examination is very quick and takes on average 3-5 minutes to complete. This is not a painful procedure. Most patients are sensitive to the camera passing down the throat, so anaesthetic throat spray and a light sedative injection can make examination much more comfortable.
-
Is Endoscopy Safe?
Yes, these examinations are safe, especially when carried out as part of prevention. The risk of complications is very low.
-
How Do I Prepare for Endoscopy?
Examining the upper digestive system requires nothing more than fasting for 6-8 hours prior to the procedure. To examine the colon, it must be cleared of stool. Therefore, a laxative or group of laxatives is given on the day before the procedure.
Also, our practitioners will discuss about it.
-
Do I need a GP referral or self-referral?
For this, you do not need referral from NHS, it is a self-pay endoscopy.
If you have NHS referral, share with our team and they will contact you. However, most of the patients with NHS waiting for a longer period of time to get a referral, there will be a chance of spreading disease.
