The right answers the first time

At your first visit, you meet with an expert consultant who will take the time necessary to understand your symptoms and listen to your concerns. Your consultant will work with you to develop a diagnostic plan that fits your needs.

If you need bloodwork, you can have blood drawn during the same visit. We also can supply a stool test kit that same day if requested by your consultant.

If your consultant requests a diagnostic endoscopy procedure, such as an upper GI endoscopy, a colonoscopy or a virtual colonoscopy, we'll help you book a convenient time and provide clear instructions to help you prepare.

MRI, ultrasound, X-rays and CT scans can usually be done on the same day. However, if fasting is needed for the imaging, you may need to schedule for another time.

If necessary, your GI consultant will review your test results with a team of experts in London and the U.S. to develop a treatment plan individualised to your exact condition and needs.
