LGBTQIA Health
At Dr Wayne Cottrell & Co, we provide discreet, respectful and inclusive care for LGBTQIA+ patients in Canary Wharf. Whether you need fast STI testing, HIV prevention support, advice after a sexual exposure, or a private GP service where you feel listened to and understood, our clinic is here to help.
We know that LGBTQIA+ health is not one-size-fits-all. Different identities, relationships, experiences and risks can shape the care you need. That is why we offer confidential appointments, tailored sexual health screening, and clear, non-judgemental advice in a private clinical setting.
From same-day sexual health concerns to ongoing prevention and peace of mind, our focus is simple: expert care, rapid access and a welcoming service in the heart of Canary Wharf. The clinic’s current sexual health offering includes same-day test and treat, bespoke STI screens, onsite treatment and same or next day results.
Inclusive private healthcare for LGBTQIA+ patients
Choosing private healthcare is often about more than speed. It is about being able to speak openly, ask questions without embarrassment, and receive care that reflects your circumstances.
Our LGBTQIA+ health service is designed for patients who want:
- Confidential, discreet appointments
- Rapid access to testing and treatment
- Tailored advice based on their needs and risk
- A clinic environment that is welcoming and non-judgmental
- Convenient care in Canary Wharf
Whether you are looking for reassurance, regular screening, preventative treatment, or support with symptoms, we aim to make the process clear, calm and straightforward.
