On 11 Jan 2021 I have a colonoscopy performed by Dr Deborah Wright. As a short term visitor to Christchurch I didn't have anyone to collect me after the procedure and so I opted for the procedure without sedation. It was not painful or even uncomfortable at any time. It was interesting to be able to see a large TV screen showing inside my colon and the Dr and nursing staff were professional and friendly. The only slightly uncomfortable part of the whole process was the bowel cleanse the day before and on the morning which required fasting and drinking an orange flavoured powder, which didn't taste awful, mixed with water to clear out the bowel. Three to four hours after taking the solution, bowel movements were quite sudden, loose and watery, but that was expected. If I required a procedure in the future I would again choose to not to be sedated. It was fine, really. Perhaps if a patient was suffering with abdominal pain, a sedative would be preferable.

I was really worried about having a colonoscopy but I have to say the whole process was so much better that I could have hoped. The staff at Intus were so friendly and professional and my surgeon Ian went above and beyond to make me comfortable. At no stage did I feel exposed or uncomfortable and having a big screen to watch what the camera was seeing was a great way to occupy my mind. Lynley made my insurance claim so simple and the communication couldn't have been better. I was well informed through out. Thank you to everyone involved I won't be going anywhere else for my follow up in 5 years time. Cheers
