Booking an appointment

Clinic telephone numbers can be found on the individual service pages below. You can also attend the site in person to book an appointment for STI testing. If you need urgent help, you can walk in to a clinic without an appointment. We make every attempt to see urgent cases on the day, but you may have to wait if the clinic is busy.

What happens in the clinic?

Allow up to two hours for your visit to the clinic. It is important that you do not pass urine for two hours before you attend for an STD test.

If you attend for sexual health screening, a doctor or nurse will ask a range of questions to check what tests need to be taken. A basic check-up would include tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhoea and chlamydia.

If any infection is diagnosed on the day, you’ll be offered treatment immediately. The rest of your results will be ready within a week. You can choose to receive the results from your STI test via letter or by coming in to the clinic for an appointment. If you have not received your results and you have a sexually transmitted infection that requires treatment, we will try to contact you to make sure you receive treatment and support.
