Discrete sexual health testing

At Butterfield Clinic, our GPs are available to provide a range of advice and testing for sexually transmitted infections.

If you are worried that you might have a sexually transmitted infection, the NHS’ advice is that you should get checked at a sexual health clinic as soon as possible. Common STI symptoms include:

  • Unusual discharges
  • Pain when peeing
  • Rashes
  • Itchy genitals

You may also want to consider getting a sexual health test if your sexual partner has symptoms or you’re worried after having sex without a condom.

How can Butterfield Clinic GPs help?’

Our GPs can provide advice, reassurance and where necessary sexual health testing. You can ask to see a male or female clinician. There are three ways to access sexual health testing at Butterfield Clinic practices:

  • In a sexual health appointment
  • In a standard GP consultation
  • Selected tests can be completed as home test kits


In a sexual health appointment, our GPs will only have time to carry out the test. If you also wish to get advice and speak with a GP, please book a standard consultation, during which we can provide both advice and testing.

Please note that the cost of the sexual health tests is not included in the price of the appointment. To check the price of the test you require, you can use this pricing calculator.

Everyone has their own reasons for wanting to be tested. Common reasons include starting a new relationship, general peace of mind, or before starting IVF treatment.
Anyone can use this service, including both members and non-members.
If you aren’t sure which sexual health test you require, you can book an appointment with a GP who will advise you on the most appropriate test. If you know which test you require, click ‘find and book a test’ button on this page to book your test.
You can use Butterfield Clinic alongside your existing NHS GP practice. We believe in joined-up care; we don’t believe that it is in your best interests to have different doctors independently trying to treat you. For this reason, once you’ve seen a Butterfield Clinic GP we aim (with your permission) to share your consultation notes back with your current NHS GP. For example, if you can’t get an appointment at your local GP practice this week, you can book in with Butterfield Clinic’s GPs. With your consent, we’ll share the Butterfield Clinic consultation notes back with you and your NHS GP, so that when you next see your NHS GP they will have a full picture of your care history.
