Private Sexual Health Testing in Royston — Fast, Confidential GP-Led Care

Private sexual health testing in Royston: fast, discreet care led by your GP

Rates of some sexually transmitted infections have risen across the UK in recent years. If you live in Royston and are worried about symptoms or recent exposure, prompt testing is the sensible step. At Mayfield Clinic our private sexual health testing is GP-led, confidential and designed to give clear answers quickly — and Royston patients are seen at our nearby Cambridge practice for appointments.

How we help: clinical advice, testing and continuity

Our GPs in the Mayfield Clinic team provide reassurance, clinical assessment and a range of private STI tests. You can choose to see a male or female clinician. For Royston patients, appointments are delivered from our Cambridge practice, which is a short journey from Royston and set up to offer same-day or rapid-access appointments where possible. We prioritise fast access to doctors and the ability to see the same named GP for follow-up — continuity that matters for sexual health care.

When to get tested

If you have any of the following, arrange testing as soon as possible:

• Unusual discharges
• Pain when peeing
• Rashes
• Itchy genitals

You may also want a test after sex without a condom, or if a partner has symptoms. The NHS advises seeking a sexual health clinic as soon as possible — our private service gives an alternative if you want discreet private STI testing or faster access.

Three ways to access private sexual health testing at Mayfield Clinic

• Sexual health appointment — clinic time focused on carrying out the tests you need.
• Standard GP consultation — assessment, advice and testing in the same appointment. If you want both discussion and tests, book a standard consultation.
• Home test kits — selected tests are available as discreet kits you can complete at home and return for lab processing.

Note: the cost of the sexual health tests is not included in the price of the appointment. Check test prices using the pricing calculator on our website or ask when booking.

"Confidentiality is central. We deliver discreet private STD testing with clear results and practical advice tailored to you."

Tests we commonly offer

Our private sexual health panels include targeted tests for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis and HIV, as well as broader full sexual health panels if required. We also offer private HIV testing services and testing pathways for men, women and couples who want reassurance or screening before conception.

Speed and reliability

Many people search for "private STI testing near me" or "fast private STD testing near me". At Mayfield Clinic we aim to provide rapid appointments for Royston residents with reliable laboratory partners and clear result pathways. Some tests can return same-day or next-day results; your GP will explain expected turnaround when you book.

Confidentiality and discreet service

We provide confidential STD testing in a setting that respects your privacy. If discretion is important, mention this at booking and we can arrange a suitable appointment type — including home-testing options for selected tests and discreet collection methods.
