About: Fife Community Services / Sexual Health

(as the patient),

Staff at sexual health Fife went above and beyond for me, even managing to squeeze me in for a face to face consultation despite their limited consultations being fully booked until July. Both nurses I spoke with were very kind, thorough and personable, making the process so much easier. I have sincere gratitude for their services, and would like to recommend that the number of clinics/consultations is increased. While Covid concerns are very real, as is the increased time needed for additional cleaning, there is a clear demand for services in this area as shown by the fact that appointments are severely limited until July. I was incredibly lucky to be seen so quickly and can only hope that others are able to receive the same level of care, especially in an area with such a sensitive nature.

Dear Jazzbb73, thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience of Sexual Health Fife. I am delighted to hear that you were seen in a timely manner and that your experience of our nursing staff was such a positive one. Covid has necessitated a reduction in our face to face activity and seen us develop new ways of working including consulting by telephone, postal testing kits and pharmacy treatment vouchers. We are continually reviewing the demand for telephone consultations and face to face appointments and we have recently introduced a number of additional face to face sessions whilst ensuring that our practice remains compliant with Covid infection control guidance. Feedback such as yours is extremely helpful to us in planning future service delivery and I will be sure to share it with the team.

Kirsty Durham, Sexual Health Senior Charge Nurse
