Private gut-health testing helps get to the bottom of persistent digestive symptoms — bloating, abdominal pain, changes in bowel habit, or suspected food intolerance. It usually combines blood tests (coeliac screen, inflammation markers, full blood count, liver and thyroid function) with stool tests where appropriate.

The aim is to identify treatable causes and, importantly, to flag anything that needs prompt specialist attention.

What Testing Can Show

Bloods can pick up coeliac disease, anaemia, inflammation and thyroid causes of gut symptoms; stool tests can check for infection, inflammation (faecal calprotectin) and, where indicated, bowel-cancer screening markers.

Results are interpreted alongside your symptoms by a clinician, who will arrange onward gastroenterology assessment if needed.

When to Seek Testing

Consider it for symptoms lasting more than a few weeks. Seek prompt assessment for red flags — blood in the stool, unintentional weight loss, a persistent change in bowel habit, or difficulty swallowing.

At The Vesey, gut-health testing can be arranged without a referral, with a GP to guide the right tests.

Getting Tested at The Vesey

Blood and stool tests are straightforward to arrange, with results usually within a few days and a clinician to explain them and plan next steps.
