I recently underwent both a colonoscopy and an endoscopy with Dr. Laura Blackmore and I cannot recommend her enough. Having had these procedures twice before with other physicians, I can say with confidence that Dr. Blackmore is phenomenal. From start to finish she was thorough and reassuring which made a significant difference in my experience for the better. If you are looking for a physician with high-level expertise and genuine patient care Dr. Blackmore is the one you should see!
Excellent care received from Dr. Blackmore. My concerns were listened to, I felt heard. Dr. Blackmore took the time explain everything to me, put my mind at ease and was 100% clear on next steps

Dr. Blackmore was did an excellent job and helped to make me feel comfortable and at ease. She explained everything well.
Dr Blackmore was extremely welcoming and put me at ease during my initial consultation. On the day of my procedure she made me feel really comfortable and explained everything to me in great detail.
Dr Blackmore listened very carefully to me & responded sympathetically and practically. Her investigations were carried out with a kind empathetic manner and she always kept me informed ensuring I was relaxed and comfortable at all times. In particular her bedside manner was exemplary making me feel heard and respected. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a gastroenterologist.
Dr Laura Blackmore reassured me prior to endoscopy, i was anxious at first but after her kind confident words i proceeded to continue and was happy post operation as she came to check on how i was doing.
I commend Dr Laura for her calmness, professionalism and kind words. She is a brilliant doctor and I told her I wish she will be the one to attend to me any time I visit the hospital
My whole experience was excellent from reception to discharge with very little waiting. The nurses and Dr Blackmore were kind, friendly and very professional. Dr Blackmore took time to explain the consent form and possible risks very clearly. She was very professional and gentle throughout the procedure and explained what she was seeing and doing very clearly. I was able to look at the screen which was reassuring. When it became rather painful she increased the sedation a little. I had a significant drop in blood pressure and heart rate in recovery which was a little frightening but it was dealt with very quickly and competently and I felt fine on discharge. I was given the medical report and photos be hire so left with advice what happens next and what to do if I experienced any problems. Many thanks to Dr Blackmore and her team for the whole experience.
Dr Blackmore is very caring and approachable. She carried out the procedure with minimal discomfort for me even though it was at times tricky. She explained what would happen well in advance and was thorough in providing feedback after it.
Excellent colleague - extremely knowledgeable and experienced with general gastroenterology and hepatology. Highly recommended.
