At our modern private hospital in Hastings, we use high-definition endoscopy and capsule endoscopy for accurate diagnosis and early detection of digestive conditions. We use minimally invasive procedures wherever possible — meaning less discomfort, quicker recovery, and a faster return to normal life.
At Sussex Premier Health, we offer a full range of gastrointestinal investigations and treatments. Below are some of the most common procedures performed by our specialists:
A gastroscopy allows your consultant to examine your oesophagus, stomach, and upper small intestine using a thin, flexible camera. It helps diagnose conditions such as acid reflux (GORD), ulcers, and swallowing difficulties. The procedure is quick, safe, and typically performed as a day case.
A colonoscopy enables your specialist to view the lining of your large intestine and rectum. It is used to detect bowel inflammation, polyps, and early signs of bowel cancer. We use the latest imaging technology to ensure accuracy and patient comfort. Most patients go home the same day.
A flexible sigmoidoscopy examines the lower part of your bowel and is often recommended for symptoms such as rectal bleeding, persistent diarrhoea, or changes in bowel habits. It’s a short, well-tolerated test that can provide valuable insight into your digestive health.
If polyps are found during a colonoscopy, they can often be removed during the same procedure — reducing your future risk of developing bowel cancer.
For conditions affecting the small intestine, our specialists may recommend capsule endoscopy. You’ll swallow a tiny camera capsule that captures detailed images of your digestive tract as it passes through, helping identify bleeding, inflammation, or other abnormalities.
Our consultants diagnose and manage a wide range of digestive and liver conditions, including:
