Painless Colonoscopy in China

Procedure: 30 min
Recommended stay: 2 days
Recovery: 1 days

A colonoscopy examines the inside of your colon using a flexible tube with a high-definition camera. In China, you can book a fully sedated colonoscopy with board-certified gastroenterologists using the latest Olympus and Fujifilm endoscopy systems. The procedure is completely painless under IV sedation administered by a licensed anesthesiologist. Results and images are shared immediately after. Many international patients combine colonoscopy with gastroscopy for a complete GI checkup that would cost 10x more in their home country.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is sedation included in the price?
Yes, the price includes IV sedation administered by a licensed anesthesiologist who monitors you throughout. You will be fully asleep and wake up with no memory of the procedure.
How do I prepare for a colonoscopy?
You will need to follow a clear liquid diet for 24 hours and take a bowel preparation solution the evening before. We provide complete prep instructions and the prep kit. The process is the same as in any Western country.
Can I combine this with a gastroscopy?
Yes — most patients book a combined 'full GI checkup' (colonoscopy + gastroscopy). This adds only 10-15 minutes to the procedure and provides comprehensive GI screening.
How soon can I fly after the procedure?
You can fly the next day. That said, we recommend staying 2-3 days in case you want to rest or do light sightseeing before departure.
