Very organised and professional service, I don’t live in the UK (Channel Islands resident) so flying in and having immediate access over 2 days to 4 tests at the digestive centre saved me multiple trips back and forwards.
Quick to get appointment, took time to discuss concerns, explained everything very clearly.
