How do you get a colonoscopy by seeing a gastroenterologist online through healthtap?

You have reached our public education site, where we answer general publically available medical questions. We have another site for direct virtual consults. However, we do not directly perform any procedures as this is not set up to do colonoscopies. Contact your local medical society for a consult.

If questioning the need for a colonoscopy best will be to have an online consult with one of the HealthTap docs, to actually have the colonoscopy it will have to be one of the gastroenterologists in your area.
