Sexual health is where people most value not sitting in a waiting room. Consultations are confidential and kept separate from your NHS record unless you ask us to share them.
Free NHS sexual health services are excellent, and we will say so where that is the better route. What we offer is speed and privacy.
Privacy and speed, without a waiting room. That is what people most value here, and it is a legitimate thing to buy.
NHS sexual health services are genuinely excellent, free, and take self-referrals — including walk-in appointments and postal testing kits. For most of what arrives in this category, they are the better route, and we will say so.
Most STIs cause no symptoms. Chlamydia in particular is usually silent and is the commonest preventable cause of infertility in the UK — which is the argument for testing after a new partner rather than waiting to notice something.
Testing is not an accusation and does not require a reason. It has become an ordinary part of starting a relationship, and that is a good development.
Private STI panels testing for things that do not need testing — broad screens including tests with poor performance produce false positives and unnecessary anxiety. Herbal ED products, which frequently contain undeclared sildenafil. And subscription men's health packages, which create a financial interest in your continued prescription.
For most of this, yes — and we will tell you so. NHS sexual health services are free, expert, take self-referrals, and do things we cannot: coils and implants, PrEP, PEP, partner notification.
What we offer is privacy and speed. That is worth something to some people and nothing to others, and it is worth being clear which you are buying.
Only if you agree to it. Nothing is shared without your explicit consent, and declining does not affect your care.
Sexual health is the commonest thing people ask us to keep separate, and that is an entirely reasonable request.
Yes — and that is the whole point. Most STIs cause no symptoms at all, and chlamydia in particular is usually silent while being the commonest preventable cause of infertility in the UK.
Test after a new partner, or if a partner is diagnosed, regardless of how you feel.
If it was within the last 72 hours, go to A&E or a sexual health clinic now. PEP is free, it is effective, and the window is short — sooner is substantially better than later.
Do not book an appointment to discuss it. Go.
No — and you should not pay for it. PrEP is free on the NHS through sexual health services, and it comes with the kidney and HIV monitoring that makes it safe.
It is highly effective and under-claimed. If you are at higher risk, it is worth asking about.
No — those need someone in the room, so we refer. NHS sexual health services provide them free.
They are also more effective than the pill in real-world use, because they do not depend on remembering anything.
Act today, and check the free routes first — free at many pharmacies, at sexual health clinics and at some walk-in centres.
Levonorgestrel works up to 72 hours; ulipristal up to 120; the copper coil is by far the most effective and works up to 5 days. Weight matters — a higher dose may be needed above about 70kg.
Frequently not — and this is why buying tablets online without assessment is a bad idea.
ED is often the first sign of cardiovascular disease, appearing three to five years before anything else, and it is a recognised early presentation of type 2 diabetes. Treating the symptom without asking why loses the warning.
The other reason: nitrates and nicorandil are an absolute contraindication, and the combination can be fatal.
It may not be thrush. Bacterial vaginosis — thin grey discharge with a fishy odour — needs an antibiotic, and antifungals will not touch it.
Recurrent genuine thrush also warrants checking blood sugar, since it can be the first sign of diabetes. And lichen sclerosus is frequently mistaken for it, needs a steroid rather than an antifungal, and carries a small cancer risk untreated.
Suppressive treatment — a daily low dose — is standard for six or more recurrences a year, and it is markedly under-offered.
It reduces outbreaks substantially and reduces transmission to a partner. For people whose life is organised around recurrences, it is transformative.
Yes — it is common, under-reported, and treatable. Causes include vaginal dryness after the menopause, thrush, skin conditions, endometriosis, pelvic floor problems and anxiety.
After the menopause, vaginal oestrogen is highly effective and markedly under-prescribed. Nobody should accept painful sex as inevitable.

Same-day access is usually available, from 6am to 10pm, seven days a week. You choose a time that suits you rather than waiting on hold at 8am.
Yes. Care is led personally by Dr Mohammad Khan, so you are not passed between clinicians. Continuity is the point of a small practice: someone who knows your history and is listening attentively rather than working through a checklist.
Yes, with your consent. We can access your Summary Care Record during the consultation, so your current medications, allergies and significant history are in the room. That means fewer questions you have already answered elsewhere, and safer prescribing.
No. We are not here to replace GPs, only to support them. Your NHS practice remains responsible for your ongoing care, and with your consent we write to them after the consultation. We are useful when you need to be seen sooner, or want more time than a standard appointment allows.
Twenty unhurried minutes and a comprehensive assessment. A written treatment plan is included, along with any prescription, sick note or referral letter arising from the consultation, at no extra charge.
£40 for 20 minutes, self-pay. Membership is optional and never required. Priced for fairness, because we are not here to charge extortionate amounts for access to a doctor.
It means the diagnosis can usually be made from your history and photographs, and that treatment can be arranged safely without examining you. Where a condition is not marked treatable online, it is because examination is the diagnosis — listening to a chest, feeling an abdomen, examining an ear or a joint — or because a procedure or device is needed.
Yes, where there is a genuine bacterial infection — cellulitis, impetigo, bacterial urine infections, confirmed strep throat. We will also frequently tell you that you do not need one. Most sore throats, coughs, colds and earaches are viral, and an antibiotic gives you the side effects with none of the benefit.
If your problem turns out to be genuinely outside what we can do remotely, the doctor will tell you straight away, point you to the right service, and refund your fee in full. We would rather do that than fill twenty minutes to justify the charge.
Call 999 or go to A&E — do not book an online appointment and do not wait for a reply to an email. For urgent problems that are not emergencies, NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, online or by phone, and can direct you to the right service.
