Himerus Health is located in a multipurpose health care centre which provides many health care services from dental care, radiology, physiotherapy, and GP services, therefore it is not obvious what you are attending for.
Your consultation, medication, vaccinations, bloods and general health can be provided at Himerus Health.
This involves a longer consultation than the routine STI screen, which is also carried out if indicated.
This consultation is generally for those patients who have an ongoing chronic genito-urinary medicine issue eg, vulvodynia, vulval/penile skin conditions, recurrent candidiasis, erectile dysfunction.
Often these patients require follow up consultations as their problems are of a more complex nature.
This generally consists of a combination of treatments often tailored to the individual's treatment response. The consultants at Himerus Health STI clinic are experts with a particular interest in this area.
