Screening for syphilis is essential because this serious bacterial infection can cause long-term complications if left untreated. At Mayfield Clinic Edgeware, we offer discreet, reliable testing as part of our private GP services. Our approach is council-friendly and patient-centred, designed to be straightforward and comfortable. If you notice unusual sores, a rash, or you’ve had high‑risk exposure, our clinicians can discuss testing options, explain the process, and provide supportive care.

We use clinically appropriate tests through our private STD screening pathway, with a focus on ease and privacy. If you require additional STI screening, we can combine syphilis testing with other assays as part of a tailored visit. For patients seeking convenient access to expert private care, our Edgeware clinic provides flexible appointment times and a discreet environment.

According to NHS UK guidance, syphilis testing is an important part of sexual health care. You can read more about syphilis on the NHS site: NHS: Syphilis. At Mayfield Clinic Edgeware, our GPs can arrange testing, interpret results, and advise on next steps. Syphilis is commonly included in STI panels, so if you’re undergoing a broader screening, we can coordinate everything in one private visit. We also emphasise prevention, post‑exposure counselling, and rapid treatment if needed. For convenient access to private STD screening, including painless STI testing, contact our Edgeware clinic to book an appointment.
