Fast and Accurate Diagnosis

We are here to help you get a fast, accurate diagnosis whenever you have digestive health concerns, or to monitor your gastro-intestinal health through a screening test.

The Hamptons Hospital is equipped with the latest technology for health screening and the diagnosis and reporting of gastro-intestinal problems including endoscopy (thin camera tube) and CT scanner.

Results of endoscopy procedures are given on the day of examination, so you will be able to take away your report and discuss your results with the consultant at the end of your procedure, although sometimes final results of any biopsy (sample) tests may follow.

Our brand-new Endoscopy Suite offers comfort and privacy, and is staffed by experienced healthcare professionals to provide the care and results you need to support your further treatment options.
