GUM / STD Clinics & Experience in the Y&H Region

[2504lim]

I imagine most girls work very safe . Probably safer than pulling a girl at 2am on a Saturday night out .
Saliva kills most weak infections and I imagine most girls use a alcohol antiseptic mouth wash afterwards .
I always have condom on for BJ .
Plus I only get BJ and play with boobs .
Not punted for a long time .
But I’m very vanilla and basic .

[starnatalia]

When i start my escorting job i though if punter touch me i will get Aids
didn't no to much about STD.I even wash my pussy with mouth wash or blich, after day use bath with Dettol then I find Gum clinics and realised not so easy get something if you smart its  great idea never panic ,just once in a month go to check your self never lie say you are punter or sexworker its faster for them to put everything in computer do the swabs you need and you out from gum clinic till next month. Then less than 5days you got your result fantastic. Also for not brave enough punters in all smart clinic you can ask sample and do your self at home or sometimes the put in toilets but you need read instructions I never use that but I think great idea for some people, problem is self service will not check your blood so best to trust professionals .What I noticed this month gum clinic smarter now maybe not all but the best one after there collect samples there use computer so result can be very fast that brilliant I whent Tuesday  get  results 2 messages 1 for tests you for mouth,arse and vagina ,and 2end just blood sample.And Thursday got my results never remember that fast. TECHNOLOGY its great.

Correct on the top one, as we all know if the girl has drunk 10 double G&Ts and her partner has had 10 pints safe sex isn't usually on their minds.

With regards the latter nothing wrong with being vanilla it opens up the most options.

I got my results within 3 days, they said up to two weeks. It does depend on the area though.

Was a good read, tbh something I hadnt even considered. Another piece of punting education for me. Thanks all

Alternatively can you get to Wakefield as the Mesmac clinic there is really discrete. The one in Bradford only tests for HIV.

I visited the Howard House 'Locala' place in central Bradford recently. Overall a very positive experience for my first visit to a GUM clinic. Chanced it with their 'walk in' clinic in the morning and was surprised to see a nearly empty waiting room. Filled in my form and waited no more than 15 minutes to be seen. I'm not in a position where I need to give false details, but I assume you could if needed - you are able to prevent them accessing GP records and sharing anything with your GP, though.
The nurse was friendly & professional. I didn't feel judged, despite giving honest answers about my sexuality and sexual history (punting). I went in with symptoms, so was given a quick look over and had a swab taken (not the most pleasant experience, but needs must) which came back clear. I gave a urine sample, had blood taken, got my Hep A vaccination and started the course for Hep B. I'll be returning for the other two Hep B injections in due course. It wasn't anywhere near as bad as I assumed it would be, in fact I came out feeling a lot better knowing that it's an easy process. The place is less than 5 minutes from both train stations and there's parking in the general area, so it's easy to get to as well. And it's free. Got my results via text exactly a week later (all clear!).

Thanks for the advice and info.
I've walked past that building in Bradford 100s of times and never knew about.
Given that Howard House have a drop in service I will certainly give it a try.

Have visited the Howard House Bradford place recently. Yes on the whole positive, non-judgemental (obviously) service but either we’re worrying too much or some activities really are low risk (nurse there was adamant I didn’t need a throat test despite telling him I’d been licking out an escort. Said oral by men was low to zero risk.... and ok google seems to confirm this unless you’re gay but all the same I do wonder).
Pee and bloods taken with promise of results by txt within 3 weeks (seems a long
Time tbh).

What I will say is that there’s no way you’re going to get away with false details here. Try this and they’ll have you up at reception to confirm your GP because they must cross reference you on the nhs database. Ok they say it’s confidential but........ well your call

I gave a false name at the Wakefield drop-in, same people run Wakefield and Bradford, and they weren't happy about it. I told them straight I didn't give a shit as it was a confidential service. They processed my tests using the false name.

The name was Amir Khan though.

[Itzmurph]

Tried telling them it was confidential, nope..... they were having absolutely none of it and that they MUST cross reference you against the nhs database otherwise the door is that way pretty much. Oh well

Thats not right, its confidential at the clinics I've used. These days I use a false name so they would have a hard job matching that up.

I did try, they weren’t impressed, they wouldn’t have it. Only reporting what happened, even me saying “ok I’ll just take the risk and spread if I have something” was met with a shrug.
It is what it is

I've never checked up this but most businesses have a mission statement these days. I don't know if that applies to GUM clinics and what other clinics say. There may be a policy document some where.  Worth a look if there is one. Best of luck Itsmurph.

Went to get my check done this week and followed link from External Link/Members Only opted for the walkin service at the Central Clinic, Central Health Clinic, 1 Mulberry Street, S1 2PJ only to be told its been closed and now only option is a booking at Hallamshire Clinic (formerly the Dept. of GUM), B Road, Hallamshire Hospital, Glossop Road, S10 2JF. No confidential bookings there as must give name. This isn't an issue for me but maybe for some.

Been closed a couple of years now. The hallamshire is a fkin ball ache to get a booking. I dont bother but giving a fake name is not a issue there.

On a Saturday they have a  self service drop in. You do a urine sample drop it at the counter in a labled envolope. I had my results by Tuesday last time I went.

[yandex]

Just back from the Hallamshire clinic - rang at 8am this morning to be told I was 6th in the queue. 5 mins waiting on the phone and then through to the receptionist. Given a choice of appointments after a quick 'why do you want to visit' screen, i.e. did I have symptoms or was I looking for reassurance.

In and out of the clinic in less than 30 mins. I saw a doctor, answered a few questions - nothing unexpected - was given a few choices and opted for blood test plus urine screen.

She told me that it was basically, no news is good news and they didn't routinely send a message unless there was an issue.

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was. They also have a load of testing kits for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea (which just need a urine sample) just inside the entrance which I think you can just pick up and send back to them.

My only minor gripe is that the entrance is on the main thoroughfare and there's no disguising where you have just been as you walk out but I think that's a small price to pay for being a responsible citizen!

[Ali Katt]

Pretty similar experience to Yandex. Phoned up at 8am, you guessed it line was busy; called back 30 minutes later and got a booking for the time I wanted same day as well, as a bonus I had time for a piss and breakfast. The phone call is logged at being an embarrassing 17 minutes due to a queue. Did blood tests and urine tests, same female nurse I had last time and no she didn't remember me. They said test results would be within 2 weeks, last time it took 3 days, this time exactly 2 weeks. All clear yay!
