Interested in bowel cancer screening?

DirectColonoscopy.com.au helps patients connect with participating GPs and specialists to explore appropriate bowel cancer screening options.

Why Consider Screening?

You may benefit from a screening colonoscopy due to the following reasons:

• Family history of bowel cancer
• Personal concern regarding bowel cancer risk
• Patients seeking specialist-led preventive screening
• Long-term bowel health concerns
• Personal concern regarding bowel cancer risk
• Patients aged >40

How it works

Important information

• Not all patients are suitable for a colonoscopy
• Specialist review is required
• GP referral still needed
• Emergencies/symptoms should see GP urgently

Submission of an enquiry does not mean that colonoscopy is clinically indicated or appropriate. All patients require assessment by their treating GP and/or specialist before any procedure is arranged. Participating specialists retain sole responsibility for determining whether colonoscopy is appropriate.

DirectColonoscopy.com.au provides referral coordination and specialist matching services only. Clinical decisions regarding suitability for colonoscopy remain the responsibility of the treating GP and participating specialist.
