Direct Access Colonoscopy: Skip the Office Visit

Dr. Zahid Ahmed Afzal offers direct access for a simple screening colonoscopy, which means qualifying patients (those without serious health conditions) can skip the initial office appointment, saving you time and money.

Most patients who need a colonoscopy will meet the criteria for direct access colonoscopy, first-time screening colonoscopies as well as surveillance colonoscopies for prior history of colon polyps.

To schedule a direct access colonoscopy, please complete and submit the three-question form below.

You may qualify if you can answer NO to all of the questions below. If you answer YES to any of these questions, you must schedule an in-office consultation first by calling 815-300-PSMG (7764).
