What to expect from your PrEP consultation

Our expert PrEP consultations in Ipswich start with a confidential discussion about your sexual health, risk factors, and daily routine. We assess your suitability for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and explain how it works to reduce the risk of HIV infection. The session is patient‑centred and information‑rich, so you can make an informed decision about your health.

Why choose a private PrEP consultation? A private GP consultation offers flexible appointment times, rapid assessments, and ongoing management without requiring NHS queues. We tailor advice and follow‑up to your circumstances, helping you understand dosing, potential side effects, and what to expect after starting PrEP. For more context about our Sexual Health service in Ipswich, you can read about Ipswich sexual health on our site.

Key benefits include:

• personalised risk assessment
• clear guidance on PrEP dosing and adherence
• considerations for drug interactions and health factors
• next steps on testing and follow‑up plans

NHS guidance and how we help

Public NHS guidance on PrEP can be found here: NHS: PrEP for HIV prevention. At Mayfield Clinic Ipswich, GPs can advise if PrEP is right for you, conduct required tests, and arrange a prescription for ongoing HIV prevention. We work to ensure your care aligns with best practice while offering the convenience of private care.
