Sexual Health and HIV service

The Sexual Health and HIV Service is a confidential appointment-based clinical service providing testing and treatment for sexually transmissible infections (STIs).

The service also provides HIV post exposure prophylaxis (PEP), management and care of HIV and has an onsite specialist pharmacy.

A referral from your General Practitioner (GP) may be required but is not essential for most services.

GP Referrals

Please forward all referrals directly to the clinic using the SHHS GP referal form (regardless of which clinic you refer to). We will contact the patient within three working days from the time we receive it. If the matter requires immediate management, GPs and other health staff are advised to contact the clinic during opening hours and ask to speak with a doctor or nurse.

Patient information

• Please advise us if you are unable to attend your appointment and we will be happy to reschedule.
• It is important to bring your current Medicare card with you on each visit.
• If you are not eligible for a Medicare card, any costs will be discussed with you at your visit.
• A Medicare card is required to obtain prescriptions that are subsidised by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) and supplied through the pharmacy. A co-payment may be required.
