Our staff are here to make sure your visit to our service is as easy as possible. We understand that you may feel nervous or embarrassed about what questions you will be asked, or what tests will be done.

All our staff are friendly and non-judgemental, and they are used to testing for all kinds of infections.

All discussions are held in a private consultation space. Our services are confidential, we will not share records with anyone outside of the sexual health service, including your GP unless you give us permission to do so.
