My colonoscopy found a lesion. What now?
Bring the full report and images for assessment. If tissue was sampled, check whether the pathology result is available. Recommendations depend on all this information together.
Does a polyp mean cancer?
Polyps are changes that may be identified during colonoscopy. Tissue examination helps clarify their type. The report and the person’s history guide care and follow-up.
What if the finding is on CT or MRI?
Bring the report and access to the images, along with earlier tests if available. A single phrase in a report does not replace clinical assessment or determine treatment.
I have symptoms but no test results yet.
You can request an assessment without test results. Tell the doctor what has changed and for how long. The appointment helps determine whether investigation is needed and which tests are appropriate.
How can I share records privately?
This website does not collect tests or clinical information. Ask reception how to present your records; do not include sensitive information in public comments. The website contact channel is not an emergency service.
You do not need to know where to start.
Reception can advise on availability and preparation. Already have test results? Mention this when requesting an appointment and ask how to present your records.
