The IBD Advice Line
- The IBD Advice line is a telephone service for advice about your treatment or IBD related issues in-between your normal scheduled clinic appointments.
- The Advice Line is only available for information and advice to patients who have a definite diagnosis of IBD.
- Advice can only be given in relation to the medications you are receiving for IBD and general issues relating to your condition.
- Any other questions or concerns you may have should be referred to your GP in the first instance.
The number to call is 01382 632868
How does the advice line work?
The service uses voicemail only. It is therefore important that you leave a clear message and include contact details to enable us to call you back. You should expect a call back within 24 hours from our IBD Secretary (but not on weekends or public holidays). The secretary will listen to your problem and if you need to speak with an IBD Nurse Specialist will arrange a mutually convenient telephone consultation.
What if it is an emergency?
This service is not for emergency use.
If you need to be seen urgently please contact your GP or NHS 24 (Telephone 111).
