Hi Cranagh
I can understand what a worrying time this must be for you with your daughter going for a hospital appointment next week. I hope that since you posted this message you have managed to see your GP for help with your anxiety.
You asked if
anyone ever had gastro paed in out patients what happens
I did a search for you in the online community for people's experiences with "gastro paed", but I think that predictive text might have altered your wording as nothing came up. If you could tell me what 'gastro paed' should have said I could do a search again for you.
Wishing you and your daughter all the best with her appointment next week.

Clinic in Belfast
I'm really sorry to read that you still haven't managed to speak to your GP Cranagh . The only thing I can suggest is that you try again after the Bank Holiday or ring NHS111 for advice.

It is the paed gastro clinic if anyone can help me on what happens here please it might ease my anxiety
I've just typed "paediatric gastro clinic" into the group search bar Cranagh but, unfortunately, no previous posts have come up where this is mentioned.
You should have contact details for the clinic on the appointment letter so giving them a call on Tuesday should enable you to find out what your daughter can expect.
Alternatively, you could give the nurses on the Macmillan Support Line a call and they should be able to help you as well. It's free to call on 0808 808 0000 and they're available every day from 8am to 8pm.
