Sexual health services are available only for patients registered at the Ian Charleson Day Centre (ICDC). These services are provided by Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust (CNWL).
We offer sexual transmitted infections (STI) screening for people who are asymptomatic. Please ask your clinician or the nurses for this when you attend the clinic.
If you have symptoms, we advise to book an appointment for appropriate examination and treatment.
The sexual health team are available on:
Day | Information |

Monday | No sexual health service available |
Tuesday | 10am to 5.30pm |
Wednesday | Times and dates vary — contact the ICDC nurses to check when testing is available. |
Thursday | 10am to 5.30pm |
Friday | 10am to 2pm |
If you are diagnosed with an infection during your visit to the clinic, we will provide treatment either before you leave or after you receive your test results. Most of our medicines are dispensed in the clinic.
If your partner needs treatment and is also a patient registered at ICDC, they can book an appointment. Otherwise, they will need to attend their local sexual health clinic.
For patients who are not registered with ICDC , visit CNWL to find your nearest sexual health service.
We provide all contraception for registered ICDC patients.
