GetClinic Protection

Included with every booking, at no cost to you.
Administrative checks before listingWhen a clinic applies to be listed, a member of our staff reviews the business and licence documents it supplies. That is a documents check, not a clinical one, and not a guarantee. Some profiles were built from public sources and did not go through it, so look the clinic and the surgeon up yourself in their national register.
Refundable depositsDeposits are paid through a secure route that can be refunded, not by bank transfer or cash to the clinic. Cancel at least 72 hours before treatment and you get 100% of your unused deposit back.
Full refund if treatment can't go aheadIf the clinic decides the treatment isn't right for you, cancels, or moves your date and you'd rather not travel, your unused deposit is refunded in full.
Your deposit is not an extra feeIf treatment goes ahead, 100% of your deposit comes off the treatment price. Card, bank and processing costs never reduce that credit.
No booking fee from GetClinicWe don't charge patients to use the marketplace. What you pay is the clinic's price, shown before you pay it.

Common questions

Is the bowel preparation difficult?

The cleansing drink is the least pleasant part and causes frequent loose stools, but it is essential for a clear and accurate examination.

Does the procedure hurt?

Sedation and pain relief keep most people comfortable; you may feel some bloating or cramping from the air used.

Can I drive home afterwards?

No, because of the sedation you will need someone to take you home and stay with you for the day.
