Appointments:

Eligibility & diagnosis:
You must have a confirmed diagnosis of Crohn’s disease or Ulcerative Colitis; diagnosis is established following a colonoscopy and confirmed by a doctor. Once diagnosed, you can access the clinic at any stage of your condition, and the service is available regardless of how long you have been diagnosed for.
If you have a confirmed diagnosis and would like support, please contact us to arrange an appointment or speak with a member of the team.
When to seek medical advice:
While the clinic provides ongoing support, patients should contact their GP if they experience abdominal pain, blood in their stool or concerning stool or blood test results.
If you feel acutely unwell or suspect a severe flare, please attend your GP or A&E immediately.
We encourage all patients to access resources from Crohn’s & Colitis UK, which offers 24/7 telephone advice and online chat support.
