Our Services
Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) Screening and Treatment Regular STI screenings are essential for maintaining sexual health. Our Sexual Health Clinic offers testing for a range of STIs, including chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, HIV, and hepatitis. We provide prompt treatment and follow-up care to ensure your health and well-being.
HIV Testing and Management Our Sexual Health Clinic provides confidential HIV testing and management services. Dr Mustafa Ebrahimjee, our accredited s100 HIV community prescriber, is authorised to prescribe antiretroviral therapy (ART) for people living with HIV. We also offer Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) and Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) consultations to help prevent HIV infection.
Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) PrEP is a preventive measure for HIV-negative individuals at high risk of HIV exposure. It involves taking medication regularly to reduce the risk of contracting HIV. PrEP consultations are available by appointment with any of our GPs at the Sexual Health Clinic.
Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) PEP is a 28-day course of HIV medication taken after a potential high-risk exposure to prevent HIV infection. It must be started within 72 hours of exposure. For urgent PEP needs, please contact our Sexual Health Clinic directly to prioritise your appointment.
Contraceptive Advice and Services Our Sexual Health Clinic offers comprehensive contraceptive advice and services, including prescriptions for oral contraceptives, contraceptive implants, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and emergency contraception. Our team will work with you to find the best contraceptive method to suit your needs and lifestyle.
Sexual Health Education and Counselling Understanding sexual health is key to maintaining it. Our Sexual Health Clinic provides educational resources and counselling on various aspects of sexual health, including safe sex practices, relationship advice, and sexual function. We aim to empower you with the knowledge and support needed to make informed decisions about your sexual health.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination We offer the HPV vaccine to help protect against the human papillomavirus, which can cause cervical cancer and other health issues. The vaccine is recommended for both males and females and is available by appointment at our Sexual Health Clinic.
