The testing, treatment and advice services currently available to patients will not change, but Sexual Health South West London is opening a new centre on 19 November in Wandsworth on the 1st Floor of 160 Falcon Road, next to Clapham Junction station.
On the 19 November the current clinics at Queen Mary’s Hospital and Balham Health Centre will move to this new centre.
We will continue to work from Queen Mary’s Hospital until 31 October, from which date this clinic will move temporarily to the Balham Health Centre. The Balham Health Centre clinic will stay open until 17 November. After these dates, all sexual health services in Wandsworth will move to Falcon Road. Other centres in Merton and Richmond will continue unchanged.
All our sites are run by friendly, expert, non-judgemental staff offering a fully integrated sexual health and contraception service.
Falcon Road will be the hub of Sexual Health South West London’s services for three London boroughs (Merton, Richmond and Wandsworth) – with satellite clinics in Mitcham, Twickenham and Wimbledon.
It will be open from Monday to Saturday and will include regular sessions (including walk-in) specialising in care for young people, women, gay men and men who have sex with men (MSM).
Five locations for sexual health services will be available across the London Boroughs of Wandsworth, Richmond and Merton. Please see the list below for locations, standard opening times and summary of services offered at each site.
