Wokingham Hospital

How Is The Service Provided

This clinic provides a confidential service, this means we won't share any information you give us with anyone outside the clinic without your permission unless we are worried about your safety.

The clinic is staffed by both male and female nurses who undertake assessments and examinations. 

Sex is a normal part of most people's lives. Whatever your sexuality or preference we are not here to judge but to help inform your choices and to support you to remain healthy.

This service is 'walk in and wait'.  Depending on your reason for attending the clinic you will be seen by the most appropriate member of staff.  This can mean there may be an extended wait to be seen.

All services are free and there are no prescription charges.
