Procedural Appointments

 Your doctor can refer you directly for a procedure. Referrals can be faxed, emailed, posted, hand-delivered or via Healthlink.

Appointments can be made by contacting our friendly reception staff.

If you have been referred for a procedure, our reception staff will advise you about what needs to be done to get ready for the procedure. This differs depending on what procedure you are due to have as well as other factors such as your general health, the medicines you are on and your age. If you have been referred for an ERCP the doctor will usually wish to see you before the procedure. If you are having a colonoscopy and are over the age of 78 or have other underlying health conditions, in most instances the doctor will arrange an appointment in the rooms before the procedure. If for any reason you would like to be seen by the doctor first, please inform our reception staff who will be happy to organise this.

We perform procedures in the endoscopy suite at The Mater Hospital which is just across the road from our consulting rooms.

We are committed to high-quality, cost-effective medical care and aim to keep out-of-pocket costs to the minimum. Exact costs will depend on a number of factors including the type of procedure(s) you are having carried out, your private health insurance, and the anaesthetic fee. We encourage you to talk with the anaesthetic group that will be providing your care and will supply you with their contact details.

Preparation for procedures is described on the information sheets (below). You will be given instructions about what particular preparation you should have and where to buy it at a low cost.

Uninsured patients are welcome to have their procedures performed by Gastroenterology North Queensland. A significant proportion of the doctor's fees will be reimbursed via Medicare however the hospital admission fees are non-rebatable. Please contact the rooms for advice on the cost.
