Choosing your ride type: Select Wait & Return if you want us to stay on site during your colonoscopy and bring you home afterward. Select One-way or Two-way if you only need transportation.
How Wait & Return works
Your service begins at pickup. We transport you to your appointment, remain on site for the entire visit, and return you to your preferred drop-off location. Some appointments require a designated person to stay on site and accompany you afterward, and our driver can be that person, providing both the on-site wait and your transportation. It's coverage a traditional taxi or rideshare can't offer.

Private Transportation for Colonoscopy Appointments

A colonoscopy involves sedation, which means you cannot drive yourself home and most facilities will not allow you to use rideshare. The Doctor Ride provides private, sedation-approved transportation with a trained driver who takes you to your appointment, remains on site during your procedure, and returns you home safely once you're discharged.

We regularly coordinate with outpatient surgery centers, endoscopy centers, and GI clinics throughout the Charlotte area, and our wait and return service is built specifically for procedures like this.

Why Choose The Doctor Ride for Colonoscopy Transportation

Colonoscopy appointments require more than a ride. Facilities require a responsible party, sedation-approved transportation, and a reliable pickup plan, which is exactly what we provide. Our service includes:

  • Sedation-approved transportation (not rideshare)
  • A trained driver who remains on site during your procedure
  • Door-to-door assistance
  • Wheelchair transportation available if needed
  • Wait & return service included
  • Ideal for patients without family or caregivers available

How It Works

  1. Request a quote online above, or call or text us at 704-992-7433.
  2. We confirm your appointment details and transportation needs.
  3. A trained driver arrives, waits during your procedure, and safely returns you home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Colonoscopy Transportation

Can I take Uber or Lyft after a colonoscopy?
No. Most facilities do not allow rideshare services after sedation. Patients must have a responsible driver and approved transportation arranged in advance.
What if I don't have someone to drive me home?
That's exactly why our service exists. We provide professional transportation that meets post-sedation requirements, even if you don't have a friend or family member available.
Does your driver stay during my appointment?
Yes. A trained team member remains on site during your procedure so there is no delay or uncertainty when you are ready to be discharged.
What if my procedure runs longer than expected?
That's not a problem. Our wait and return service accounts for procedure delays so you're never rushed or left waiting.
Do you offer wheelchair accessible colonoscopy transportation?
Yes. Our vans accommodate both ambulatory and wheelchair clients, with secure tie-downs and safe loading for wheelchair users before and after the procedure.
How early should I schedule colonoscopy transportation?
We recommend booking as soon as you know your procedure date. Morning appointments fill up quickly, and reservations are confirmed on a first-come basis.
