Inpatient endoscopy referrals are now online via RCP. Please ensure that you have selected the drop box for Inpatient Endoscopy (see below).
All urgent and after-hours requests must still be discussed with the on-call Gastroenterology Registrar or Consultant.
Outpatient Gastroenterology referrals are made online via RCP.
You can check on the progress of each referral and the scheduled procedure time on the intranet without having to call the endoscopy unit.
