Clinics in Lewisham
Lewisham Sexual Health Services are run from the two sites below and we now now offer a walk-in service at both.
Please be aware that the walk-in operates on a first come, first served basis and that we will operate a slot-system (meaning after booking in you may be asked to return later in the day). This is to reduce your waiting time in the clinic. Walk-in slots are dependent on our capacity and not available to booking by phone.
The walk-in service at Hawstead Road provides:
- Treatment for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, herpes and warts
- Contraception including coil and implant insertions or removals and depot injections
- Treatment and testing for contacts of infection with no symptoms.
Please note we do not have a microscope at Hawstead Road, so we will not be able to see patients with symptoms of discharge.
The walk-in service at the Waldron Health Centre provides:
- Treatment for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, herpes and warts
- Contraception including coil and implant insertions or removals and depot injections
- Treatment and testing for contacts of infection with or without symptoms
- Provision of PrEP and PEPSE
There are still limited appointments that are bookable online (click on the 'book now' button')
Saturday will remain an appointment clinic with bookings made by telephone from Thursday of that week.
If there are no appointments available, please try again later as appointments are released 24 hours in advance.
