How do I prepare?
You will need to avoid eating for 6 hours before your appointment. This helps reduce bowel gas and ensures the gallbladder is properly assessed.
You may drink small amounts of water and continue taking your usual medications unless advised otherwise.
Please note if you are diabetic or unable to fast, please contact the clinic before your appointment so alternative arrangements can be discussed.
