Public Health Sudbury & District

The Sexual Health Clinic promotes healthy sexuality and provides confidential services that reduce sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Public Health Sudbury & Districts continues to provide these services during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Services are by appointment only. A public health nurse will conduct a telephone assessment to determine if an in-person appointment is necessary. For more information, call Public Health.

Access to services during COVID-19

Effective July 2, 2020, if you are visiting our office locations for service, you will need to wear a face covering (e.g. medical or a non-medical mask or other face covering) at all times. This is the case whether you are receiving services that involve close contact or not. Certain exceptions may apply (for example, based on age or medical circumstances). We encourage you to bring your own mask. If you don’t have a mask or forgot to bring yours, we will give you one for your appointment, supplies permitting.

The new requirement provides additional protection as distancing is not always guaranteed.
