Discreet sexual health checks

Private, judgement-free care for your sexual health.

Private Sexual Health Clinic Newcastle

Feel reassured: we’ll explain your options and support your choices.

Our discreet Sexual Health Service offers confidential testing, clear advice and treatment for common concerns. You can book a GP consultation or come for screening, with straightforward cases managed in-house and referral to specialists if needed. Student-friendly screening packages are available.

Who it is for: 

  • Anyone who wants confidential, practical help with sexual health (with or without symptoms).
  • People with new symptoms (pain, discharge, sores, irritation).
  • Those who’ve had recent unprotected sex or a new partner and want screening.
  • Couples testing together before stopping condoms.
  • Students seeking simple, affordable screening packages.
  • People needing treatment or advice after a positive test elsewhere.
  • Anyone wanting guidance on safer sex, vaccines, or partner notification.


Please note, we are not a specialist sexual health service. We can screen for sexual health infections and treat common sexual health infections, but we are unable to treat warts and herpes and may have to suggest that you are seen at a sexual health clinic. We will however provide you with  a referral letter.

Your needs set the agenda. Tell us what prompted the visit, any recent symptoms or exposures, and what you want to leave knowing.

If you prefer minimal conversation, we can keep it simple; if you want education and counselling, we can provide that too.

What to expect

A short, private consultation to understand symptoms and risks, followed by the right tests for you. Typical options include urine or swabs for chlamydia and gonorrhoea, a small blood sample for HIV and syphilis, and additional tests when indicated. If treatment is suitable on the day, we will explain benefits and risks in plain English and start promptly. You will leave knowing how and when results will arrive and who to contact with questions.

Preparing for your appointment

You may need to have some tests completed, so we would advise you to avoid urinating for one hour before your appointment. Do not use vaginal creams or douches on the day of a swab. Bring a list of medicines and allergies, the date of any recent antibiotics, and the approximate date and type of any potential exposure. If you prefer a chaperone, let us know when booking.

Where partner notification is recommended, we will support you with simple, discreet options. If specialist input is needed, we will arrange referral and keep your plan joined up.
