🩺 About cervical screening

Cervical screening is a quick and simple test that helps prevent cervical cancer.

It checks for changes in the cells of the cervix so they can be treated before they become a problem.


ℹ️ Important information

  • Appointments are available up to 14 days in advance
  • If you need an appointment further ahead, please call again closer to the time (around 2 weeks before)
  • If no appointments are available, please try again later
  • Our reception team can only see the same appointments as the automated system
  • New appointments are usually released from 8:00am on weekdays
  • Cervical screening cannot be performed if you are bleeding, so please try to book your appointment around your cycle

🛡️ Why this is important

Cervical screening is one of the most effective ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer.

Attending when invited helps detect and treat changes early.
