We offer a mixture of planned appointments and same day access slots.
All of our clinics at Harrogate, Heatherdene are pre-booked appointments, apart from our walk-in clinic on Tuesdays (4:00pm – 6:00pm). Please call the central booking line on 01904 721111 to discuss your requirements.
We offer some of our services over the phone, so it may be that you are asked to wait for a call back from a specialist nurse who will ask some questions and advise from the following:
• Self- help or over the counter pharmacy treatment
• Postal or pick up contraception or treatment.
• Face to face clinic appointment for testing, examination or procedure
• Advice around how to test for STI’s
• Advice to see to GP
We offer dedicated “Test and Go” (TAG) slots for those who have no symptoms but wish to have STI testing.
We have a limited number of face-to-face clinic slots and a limited number of call back slots. Staff on the phones are trying to allocate these slots according to urgency so please give as much information as you can. This is a confidential service.

Please note that this text line is not manned; it operates solely for appointment cancellations for users with one appointment only.
The NHS loses 650,000 appointments every month because patients do not attend their appointment (DNA). If patients cancel their appointment instead, we could offer care and treatment to 650,000 more patients every month, over 7 and half million extra every year. Please help us to make every appointment count and let us know as soon as possible ahead of your appointment so that we have time to give the appointment to someone else in need. Please be advised that this applied to both face to face and virtual appointments.
