Fast Track Cystoscopy Service

 

Streamlined Cystoscopy In South Australia

To reduce waiting times and improve efficiency for patients, ADELAIDE FAST TRACK CYSTOSCOPY SERVICE offers GPs a streamlined Cystoscopy booking service.

The Benefits to Doctors and Patients

  • An efficient combined appointment process for both consultation and procedure.
  • Reduced patient waiting times.
  • All referrals reviewed by Urologist prior to their appointment to ensure suitability.
  • Consultation by the treating Urologist on the day, immediately prior to the procedure. (Please contact us if your doctor has recommended this service, but you would instead prefer a consultation with the urologist in their consulting rooms prior).
  • Local anaesthetic Day Procedure (no fasting, no sedation), so no escort is needed unless normally required. Able patients can self-drive to and from the appointment unless instructed otherwise.
  • There is no need to cease usual medications, including warfarin or other blood thinning medication.
  • No sedation means patients are awake and can discuss the findings with their surgeon immediately after the procedure.
  • Further investigations, follow-up and treatment recommendations are arranged as appropriate.
