I’m from Maroochydore and booked a colonoscopy with Dr Wickremeratne at Birtinya. The process was smooth from check-in to the procedure, and she explained everything clearly. Very reassuring and I felt in safe hands.
Had a tense morning for an endoscopy, but Dr Wickremeratne’s calm manner and thorough explanations put me at ease. The team at Sunshine Coast University Private Hospital were fantastic too.
Dealt with persistent GERD and IBS symptoms. Dr Wickremeratne listened, organised practical tests, and gave me a clear management plan. Living on the Coast, it’s great to have this level of care nearby in Birtinya.
Had a hemorrhoid treatment with Dr Wickremeratne and felt relief quickly. The appointment at Suite 1 was punctual, respectful, and easy to follow. Highly recommended for anyone on the Sunshine Coast.
Very grateful for the IBS treatment plan Dr Wickremeratne put together after my consult. Practical dietary tips, clear follow-up, and I’m noticing improvements already. Thanks for making the journey smoother.
From the first phone call to the end of my endoscopy prep, everything ran like clockwork. Dr Wickremeratne explained risks in plain language and checked in afterwards. I’d recommend this team to anyone on the Gold Coast/ Sunshine Coast fringe.
Located in Birtinya, I found Dr Wickremeratne incredibly thorough and sympathetic. She listened to my concerns about GERD, ran the right tests, and set up a plan I can actually follow day to day. Five stars.
