Admission and exclusion criteria

DIRECT Access 

The Victorian Gut Centre is pleased to offer your patients DIRECT ACCESS for Colonoscopy and Gastroscopy procedures. If your patient meets the basic admission criteria, they can be scoped without need of a separate visit for consultation, saving them time and expense.

We will provide them with the first available appointment with one of our endoscopists. Following the procedure, you will receive a written report of the procedure and any recommendations.

Consultation

If your patient does not meet the basic admission criteria for DIRECT ACCESS, they will require a consultation prior to the procedure. This consultation will be arranged at the earliest time possible and following the consultation, a booking for the procedure will be made at the Victorian Gut Centre, if suitable (or an alternate centre depending on the patients care requirements).

Following the procedure your patient will return to your care or referred for follow-up at your discretion.
