Confidentiality assured
Confidentiality is a legal requirement within a GUM Clinic. Not only can you be tested and treated without the GUM Clinic having to report to your Family Doctor or insurance company but do not even need to provide your real name when making an appointment.Our Clinic provides an opportunity to seek professional and discreet screening and treatment with complete confidentiality without having to see or send any correspondence to your usual GP.
You can be assured that the information you give during your visit to Clinic Express is treated entirely confidentially as required by law. Files, both written and electronic, are kept securely and only viewed by authorised medical personnel responsible for their safe and effective care.
You are welcome to use a false name if it makes you feel more comfortable during your treatment and in any subsequent contact with the Clinic. All tests, results and treatments are prescribed based on your Clinical Number and Date of Birth and not your name to ensure accuracy and fail-safe security of care.
We aim to provide an atmosphere of professional yet sympathetic treatment in a relaxed and friendly environment which promotes best practice in the area of sexual health and well being. Doctor-Patient confidentiality is at the core of everything we do.
