What if I’m experiencing symptoms?
At Clarewell Clinics, we see and treat a wide variety of sexual health conditions. These include:
- STIs & STDs e.g. Chlamydia & Gonorrhoea
- Sexually related conditions e.g UTIs, NSU & NGUs

If you are experiencing any symptoms, we highly recommend booking a consultation so we can understand what the causes may be and discuss how we are to proceed.
Tests and treatments can be given in the same appointments as the consultation.

What STI Tests do I need?
The exact tests you need, and the best way of testing for them, will be discussed during your Consultation (which is included with every test). This will be based on your risk factors and symptoms that you may be experiencing.
Is an STI Test the same as an STD Test?
