Telephone Consultations
Telephone consultation with South Tyneside Sexual Health will discuss if the patient has symptoms that require urgent care, to request a sexual health test or to book contraception appointments including implants.
As part of the telephone consultation, patients will be asked to provide their name, address, DOB & telephone number and will receive a call back from the nursing team, usually the same day.
During each telephone consultation the nursing team will either arrange an appointment for patient to attend clinic, signpost the patient to the online home testing facility, other services, or provide advice on how to self-manage their condition.
- Please call the sexual health appointments line on 0191 402 8168 between the hours of 8.45am and 12.15pm to request a sexual health telephone consultation.
If you are unable to contact sexual health services during the morning telephone triage clinic, further telephone appointment capacity has been added to support young people in education & home learning by calling 0191 402 8168, Monday – Friday 9am – 18.50pm.
