We offer a mixture of planned appointments and same day access slots.
All of our clinics at Selby Hospital are pre-booked appointments. Please call the central booking line on 01904 721111 to discuss your requirements.
We offer some of our services over the phone, so it may be that you are asked to wait for a call back from a specialist nurse who will ask some questions and advise from the following: • Self- help or over the counter pharmacy treatment • Postal or pick up contraception or treatment • Face to face clinic appointment for STI Testing, examination and or procedure • Advice around how to test for STI’s • Advice to see to GP
We offer dedicated “Test and Go” (TAG) slots for those who have no symptoms but wish to have STI testing.
We have a limited number of face-to-face clinic slots and a limited number of call back slots. Staff on the phones are trying to allocate these slots according to urgency so please give as much information as you can. This is a confidential service.

If you’d like to rearrange your appointment, please call us on 01904 721111. If you’d like to cancel your appointment, please text ‘CANCEL’ to 0798444736 or call us on 01904 721111.
Please note that this text line is not manned; it operates solely for appointment cancellations for users with one appointment only.
The NHS loses 650,000 appointments every month because patients do not attend their appointment (DNA). If patients cancel their appointment instead, we could offer care and treatment to 650,000 more patients every month, over 7 and half million extra every year. Please help us to make every appointment count and let us know as soon as possible ahead of your appointment so that we have time to give the appointment to someone else in need. Please be advised that this applied to both face to face and virtual appointments.

Our next walk in cervical screening clinic is at 📍 The Friarage Hospital, Northallerton. We'll be there from 10am - 3pm on Saturday 21st June 2025.
If you're overdue your screening, take this as your sign to come along! You'll need to have received your reminder, which you'll currently get every 3 years between aged 25 and 49, and every 5 years between 50 and 64.
Cervical screening (smear test) is:
✅ Quick – the actual screening is really fast, so you'll be in and out in no time.
✅ Life saving - screening is the best way to protect yourself against cervical cancer.
✅ Easy – just walk in with your NHS number, no appointment needed.
Cervical screening shouldn't be:
❌ Painful - it may be a bit uncomfortable, but there's adjustments that can be made to ensure it's a positive experience.
❌ Embarrassing - our team are highly experienced, and have done hundreds of screenings. We don't care what you look like, if you missed your last wax, or if your tan is patchy. We'll just be pleased to see you.
If you can't make this walk in clinic, follow us for information on the next one, or if you'd prefer to attend on a set date and time, call us on 01904 721111 to book an appointment.
💉Weight Loss Injections and Contraception 💉
The MHRA have issued a reminder to women who are using weight loss injections that they must use effective contraception while taking these medicines and, in some cases, for up to two months between stopping the medicine and trying to get pregnant.
These medicines must not be taken during pregnancy, while trying to get pregnant, or during breastfeeding. Anyone who gets pregnant while using them should speak to their healthcare professional and stop the medicine as soon as possible. This is because there is not enough safety data to know whether taking the medicine could cause harm to the baby.
Your local pharmacy, GP, and sexual health clinic can advise you on contraception, and help you start or switch to your preferred method. If you live in York or North Yorkshire and would like to attend YorSexual Health, visit our website www.yorsexualhealth.org.uk for latest clinic times across the region.
