WHAT TO EXPECT

On your first visit to see Ms Burt, you will be greeted by a receptionist, who will collect any referral letters, test results or other information you have brought with you. It is helpful if you can arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your appointment time so that she has time to review the information prior to your consultation and any outstanding personal information can be obtained.

You will then take a seat in the waiting room. A spouse, partner, relative or friend can accompany you. A Spire nurse will also act as a chaperone and be present throughout the consultation and examination.

Whether you have referred yourself, or been referred because of concern about a potential colorectal condition or your genetic background, Ms Burt will discuss the nature of your problem and any other relevant information, such as your general medical history and family history.

Ms Burt will then discuss what the next steps will be, and may request further diagnostic investigations such as a flexible sigmoidoscopy.

If a follow-up consultation is required to discuss the results of your investigations, this appointment can either be face-to-face or by telephone.

Ms Burt will then send you a letter detailing your consultation and send a copy to your GP and any other referring doctor.

Ms Burt will discuss with you the results of the investigations carried out. She will recommend appropriate treatment and you will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss the benefits and any contra-indications of the treatment proposed.

If surgery is indicated, the proposed operation will be explained. All our patient care is based on informed consent, you will not be asked to agree to further or alternative procedures. You will always know exactly what operation you will be undergoing before admission to hospital.
