Open Access Endoscopy and Facilitated Access Colonoscopy
Southern Gastrointestinal Services in conjunction with Flinders Private Hospital offers a streamlined service for patients requiring an Endoscopy and / or Colonoscopy proedure.
The Open Access Endoscopy and Facilitated Access Colonoscopy service provides a fast gastrointestinal assessment (endoscopy within 1 week / colonoscopy within 2 weeks) service for patients. In order to provide the best service, we believe all patients should be seen by a consultant prior to endoscopy. However, in some cases a time for an endoscopy can be made at the time of referral for initial assessment if appropriate. Facilitated Access Endoscopies and Colonoscopies will be immediately booked onto a procedure list within 2 weeks, and a prior consultation with one of our medical staff will be arranged.
Patients require a referral from their General Practitioners and an appointment made by completing the referral form and sending via Fax : 8275 3365.
For all enquiries regarding this service please call: 8275 3366.
