If you are looking for a sexual health clinic near Enfield, Clinique Alpa in Palmers Green offers confidential, same-day STI testing and sexual health screening — just 10 minutes from Enfield Town. No GP referral is needed, no appointment waiting list, and results are typically available within 24 to 48 hours.
Why Choose a Private Sexual Health Clinic?
NHS sexual health services across North London have faced increasing pressure in recent years. Walk-in clinics often have limited availability, long waits, and restricted testing hours. For many patients, the experience lacks privacy — particularly in smaller community clinics where you might encounter someone you know.
At Clinique Alpa, sexual health consultations are conducted by Dr Mitesh Parmar, a GMC-registered GP with over 20 years of clinical experience. Every consultation is entirely confidential, unhurried, and thorough. You will be seen in a private room, and your results will never be shared with your NHS GP unless you specifically request it.
What We Test For
Our comprehensive sexual health screening covers chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B and C, herpes simplex, and trichomonas. We also offer individual tests if you have a specific concern rather than a full screen. Urine samples, swabs, and blood tests are all available on the same day.
For patients who need broader investigation, we can combine sexual health testing with a full blood panel — covering kidney function, liver function, full blood count, and inflammatory markers — to give a complete picture of your health in a single visit.
From Our Clinic: When Symptoms Overlap
Sexual health presentations are not always straightforward, and this is where seeing an experienced GP rather than a nurse-led clinic makes a real difference. We recently saw a patient who presented with vulval itching, painful urination, and an unusual vaginal discharge. On examination, there were signs of both a urinary tract infection and thrush — the thrush having developed secondary to a recent course of antibiotics for an unrelated condition.
This is a common pattern we see at Clinique Alpa: one treatment causing a secondary problem that needs its own management. In this case, the patient was treated for both the UTI and the thrush simultaneously, and her symptoms resolved completely within 48 hours. A nurse-led walk-in clinic may have tested for STIs alone and missed the underlying cause.
This illustrates why having a doctor — not just a testing service — matters. Dr Parmar can examine, diagnose, and prescribe in a single appointment, saving you from multiple visits and unnecessary delays.
How It Works
Book an appointment online or by phone — same-day slots are usually available. Attend the clinic at 466 Green Lanes, Palmers Green, where you will have a private consultation with Dr Parmar. If testing is indicated, samples are taken during your visit. Most results are returned within 24 to 48 hours, and you will be contacted directly to discuss the findings. If treatment is needed, prescriptions can be issued immediately.
