COVID-19

Please do NOT attend our clinics if you or someone you live with has symptoms of COVID-19 or is awaiting a COVID-19 test result. Unless we have asked you to come into clinic, our doctor and nurse specialist appointments are by telephone. Blood test appointments remain face-to-face. For a routine sexual health check-up, please order a home test kit. COVID-19 advice for people living with HIV can be found on our Health Advice pages.

 

 

Research

When the NHS was established in 1948, its focus was treating infectious disease such as tuberculosis, treating chronic diseases caused by poor nutrition, and treating injuries. At that time less was known about what we now call long term conditions such as diabetes, certain lung conditions or cardiac disease. Much has changed since then. We’ve built a deeper evidence base, developed better treatments and care and, as living/working conditions have also improved, people are leading longer lives. Research helped to make all this possible.

We are blessed to have a highly active team at The Lawson Unit, and research is deeply embedded the into everything we do. Click on the links below to views/access some of this amazing & published work…
