Dr Wayne Cottrell is your Private GP and Sexual Health Doctor in Canary Wharf.

Dr Wayne Cottrell qualified as a doctor in South Africa in 1994 at the University of the Orange Free State and started practising as a GP in London in 2001 (working in both private and NHS practice), after completing his further GP training in the UK.

He is an advocate of continuity of care for his patients and believes in the importance of establishing a long-term relationship with his patients and the importance of including his patients in decision making. His ethos is to take time with all his patients to listen and carefully address any concerns.

He offers a walk-in and same-day service where most functions that an NHS GP can do are performed, but typically at a time convenient to you with results the same or next day. Dr Cottrell also offers a bespoke sexual health test and treat service with same-day results.

The practice is LGBTQIA friendly.

"I offer a completely confidential, professional, non-judgemental service from start to end. If you are not sure if you have been at risk sexually, then I offer a consultation to discuss the possible risks and whether screening would be appropriate. We discuss and agree all costs beforehand so you know exactly where you stand and I will always provide you with clear and accurate advice based on current British Association for Sexual Health and HIV (BASHH) guidelines. I am a member of BASHH and also the Independent Doctors Federation (IDF) and my clinic has recently passed our Care Quality Commission inspection."
