At Boyd Medical practice, we offer comprehensive screening tests for sexualy transmitted infections (STIs) including chlamydia, gonorrheoa, syphliss, Hepatitis B&C and HIV. Many people who have an STI do not have any symptoms and therefore do not even know they have one. If left untreated some STIs can cause long-term problems such as infertility. Our staff are highly trained and will deal with you in a respectful and sensitive manner. All consulations are confidential.
