About sexual health. Should be an interesting watch although most fo us here will know how much of a state it is in and how it needs more clinics. Until I watch it no further comments, need to see the facts first!

But thought I;d mention it in this forum not entertainment as it is about sexual health (lol suppose I could have also put it in the helath forum too!)

Let me know your opinions of the programme and what the answers are to the problems they bring up. I'd be interested to hear.

    no you dont have to give you're real name.. but obv for the results some of your contact details need to be correct. although i guess you could go back into collect them.

    Interesting to watch. I'm very lucky because my GUM clinic works on a walk-in basis. Granted, it's about 3 - 4 hours there inclusive of the waiting time, but I get the prelim results then and there, and I don't have to wait weeks for an appointment.

    My clinic is a joke. I waited over 6 months to get an implant fitted and every time I went in the dr said that I would have to ring and make an appointment on tuesday. So every tuesday for 6 months I tried to ring up only to be told that it was full and I should have rung earlier ( I started ringing at opening time, its not my fault if they didnt answer the phone!!) then the last time I went in to get my injection, having given up all hope of getting the implant fitted, I saw a different dr. She siad that I shouldnt have been told to call on tuesdays because thats the day for men, and the implant only takes 5 mins to do so they could have done it when I first asked for it. I was not impressed!!

    Plus if you want to get seen you have to turn up at 6 (opens at 7) and even if you are first in line you still have an hour wait!!!
