Mayfield Clinic Windsor offers confidential, private herpes testing for individuals seeking peace of mind and expert advice outside the NHS. We provide diagnostic testing for the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), which is responsible for both genital herpes and cold sores. Our experienced GPs will discuss your symptoms—whether you are experiencing blisters, irritation or are simply worried about the risk after contact—before recommending the most suitable test.
