Endoscopy

We offer world-class endoscopy examinations of the stomach and digestive system using the latest technology at Avon Medical Practice.

Endoscopy is a procedure where your doctor inserts a long, thin tube directly into your body to view and/or operate on the internal organs.

Important points to note:
If you are booked for a colonoscopy, you will have been given instructions on how to prepare for your procedure. It is very important to follow the instructions as your bowel must be clean in order for the physician to examine it; and If you are booked for a gastroscopy, it is important to follow the fasting instructions as your stomach must be empty.
