How does a Private Sexual Health Clinic Differ from a NHS Clinic?

Are you looking to undergo a comprehensive sexual health screening, but you are unsure where to visit for your test? While there are NHS Clinics that provide these services, isome may prefer to visit a, private sexual health clinic in London such as Gynaesthetics London.

There are many differences between each type of clinic and although both can provide extensive screenings, there are many benefits to visiting a private sexual health clinic as opposed to a NHS surgery.

Our experienced, expert doctors can provide a variety of sexual health screenings which are all handled with exceptional levels of attentiveness, care, compassion and understanding. We offer complete confidentiality and an extremely discrete level of service. This is done to keep you as at ease as possible throughout your screening and throughout your treatment if you require it.


Gynaesthetics London was a fantastic choice for my private sexual health screen!


While at NHS Clinics you can receive a sexual health screen for a number of different potential STIs, at Gynaesthetics London you can choose between two quick and easy types of health screens which each cover several potential STIs in one screening.

Below see each one in more detail:

Mini Sexual Health Screen

Our smaller health screen is used to determine if you have Chlamydia, Gonorrhea or HIV. Designed to be discrete, provide fast results and also to give you peace of mind, this screening takes place at our private sexual health clinic in London.


Full Sexual Health Screen

If you choose the full sexual health screen test you will be screened for everything that is included in the mini screening as well as being tested for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and Syphilis. If you have any immediate, pressing concerns regarding your sexual health or any potential infections then the Gynaesthetics London team advises that you opt for the full screening option

We offer the choice between either a male or female doctor which again is part of our pledge to make your visit to our sexual health clinic as comfortable as possible.

As well as employing doctors of both genders we have staff who are fluent in both English and German and are also adequately capable when it comes to communicating with patients in either French or Spanish. Because of this we are able to welcome people of various nationalities to the Gynaesthetics London Private Sexual Health Clinic in London.

Once you have visited our clinic and had your sexual health screening test within 48 hours will receive your results along with a short consultancy note from the doctor you visited for your screening. If anything flags up in your results, then you will have to return to our clinic but if your results are all clear then you will not need to visit us again.

If you require more information about our private sexual health clinic and the differences between it and an NHS clinic then please do not hesitate to get in touch with Gynaesthetics London by visiting our contact page and filling in our contact form.
