Today I had a gastroscopy in the endoscopy department at Hemel Hospital. I was extremely nervous about the procedure but I needn’t have worried. The staff were all lovely and took the time to explain what would happen and options to have with or without sedation. I decided on sedation but was still very worried. The Endoscopist, Diza, listened to my concerns and asked if I had any further questions, I found her bedside manner extremely reassuring and at no time did I feel rushed or under any pressure. The procedure it self was totally painless and although you are not fully asleep, I felt comfortable throughout. All in all, i would highly recommend this department at Hemel Hospital.
