Private STI Testing at The Vesey
Sexually transmitted infections are extremely common and most have no symptoms — meaning the only way to know your status is to test. The Vesey offers a fully confidential private sexual health testing service in Sutton Coldfield, with same-week results and no requirement to attend an NHS GUM clinic. All results are communicated directly to you and are never shared without your explicit consent.
Our sexual health service includes both blood-based testing and urine NAAT (nucleic acid amplification) testing — the gold standard for detection of bacterial infections such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea. Results are typically available within 24 to 48 hours for blood tests, and 2 to 5 working days for NAAT panels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is sexual health testing at The Vesey confidential?
Completely. All consultations and test results are confidential and are communicated directly to you. Nothing is shared with your NHS GP, employer, or any other party without your explicit written consent. You may provide a preferred contact number or email for results if you wish to keep communications separate.
How quickly are results available?
Blood-based results (HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B and C) are typically available within 24 to 48 hours. Urine NAAT tests for chlamydia and gonorrhoea return results within 2 to 5 working days. We will contact you as soon as your results are ready.
Do I need a referral for private sexual health testing?
No referral is required. Book directly online or call 0121 387 3727. You do not need to see your GP first or explain your reason for testing — you can simply book and attend.
What if a result comes back positive?
If a test returns positive, our clinical team will contact you promptly to discuss the result and next steps. A GP appointment can be arranged at The Vesey to discuss treatment options — most bacterial STIs such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea are straightforwardly treatable with antibiotics. We can prescribe and treat at the clinic, or refer to an NHS GUM clinic for treatment if preferred.
Is sexual health testing available for men who have sex with men (MSM)?
Yes. Our sexual health service is available to everyone. We offer comprehensive STI screening tailored to your specific risk factors and sexual practices. No information is shared without consent.
