A new sexual health service was launched yesterday (January 9) in Tooting, Battersea and Roehampton.

Wandsworth Integrated Sexual Health Service (WISH) which is run by St George’s University Hospital’s NHS Foundation Trust, aims to provide longer opening hours to residents and a less fragmented service.

WISH will provide a range of services such as testing and managing sexually transmitted infections, emergency and ongoing contraception, rapid HIV testing, referral for termination of pregnancy C-card registration and HIV post sexual exposure treatment (PEP).

The clinics will also offer specialist services such as long-acting contraception, young people’s and gay men’s clinics, psychosexual therapy and a dedicated service for people with learning disabilities.

There are WISH clinics in the following locations:

The Courtyard Clinic, St George’s Hospital, Tooting. This clinic offers a comprehensive sexual health and contraception service and manages complex sexual health issues.

Roehampton Clinic in Queen Mary’s Hospital and the Doddington Health Centre in Battersea. These clinics offer a routine sexual health and contraception service and are led by a nursing team.
