| Faecal Occult Blood and Faecal Immunological Test | £76.00 |
MUMS offer the Faecal Immunological Test known as the FIT TEST. This includes FOB ( Faecal Occult Blood ) in addition to the FIT Test.
We send a sample of your faeces to our partner laboratory to check to see if there is any blood present. You should be investigated if there is a significant amount of blood in your faeces. Positive FIT test results can indicate an ulcer, diverticulitis, IBS, piles but more importantly it could be cancer.
The FIT test is important – especially if you have a family history of bowel cancer or if you have symptoms.
Detecting bowel cancer early is crucial and the FIT test is a screening test that can indicate early bowel cancer as stool blood may be the only indicator present – for early bowel cancers – often referred to as colon or rectal cancer. There is a much greater risk of bowel cancer being curable if it is caught early.
The NHS offers a free FIT screening test to men and women aged 50-74 but of course those patients not in this age range – will not get invited.
This screening test costs £76.00
You can have this test in a simple health care assistant appointment which costs £30.00, or you may choose to consult with MUMS Private GPs to discuss and provide the test which costs £100.00
We have ample parking, no waiting times, affordable tests and diagnostics, fast results and 100% patient satisfaction.
