Dear Collective

 

Would anyone be prepared to share experiences of withdrawing a routine
Faecal Occult Blood service?.

 

Our gastroenterologists are very keen for this to happen, but I am
concerned about the probable backlash from our GP's.

 

What I am really interested in is whether such an initiative was driven
by gastroenterology and if it was accompanied by an appropriate
information and education campaign. 

 

Does the national screening programme offer any guidance on this (can't
find any on their website)
