"Double Procedure"

About: Burnley General Hospital

I attended Burnley General Endoscopy Unit for both procedures on the 24th February, 2018.

I have to have regular surveillance scopes due to a family history of cancer.

The receptionist, nursing staff and doctor who carried out the procedures were all great.

Very thorough and everything was explained to me.

People should not be fearful of these procedures - the prep for the colonoscopy the day before is worse than the procedures themselves.

I attended Blackburn Hospital for both procedures in 2013 and did a review then.

Again five stars and brilliant staff.

Burnley is equally as good.
