Bowel Cancer Screening

The bowel screening programme helps to spot bowel cancer before symptoms start, when it’s most treatable. 
  • If you’re aged between 50 and 74, you’ll be invited to take part in bowel cancer screening every two years. 
  • If you're aged 75 or over, you can ask for a screening test by calling the free bowel cancer screening helpline 0800 707 60 60 

The Bowel Cancer UK Website explains what the screening test is, how to do the test and when you'll receive it.

At Bedminster Family Practice your care is our priority.
To help us serve you better, we use Heidi, an AI-powered medical scribe that helps us document your consultations more efficiently. If you prefer not to have Heidi assist during your visit, simply let your clinician know.

Key benefits:
● More time for your care: We can concentrate on you rather than administrative tasks.
