How ScopeCoach uses information
ScopeCoach's educational content is informed by relevant Australian, Queensland and local hospital colonoscopy preparation guidance. These sources help us provide practical information about food choices, clear fluids, medications, bowel preparation and preparing for your procedure.
ScopeCoach provides general preparation support only. It does not replace the instructions given to you by your doctor, specialist, hospital or procedure unit.
