Walk-in GUM clinic considered
THE Western Trust will consider the potential for a walk-in Genito-Urinary Medicine clinic as part of a re-design process, it has emerged.
Health Minister Michael McGimpsey advised the move was being contemplated in response to a query at the Stormont Assembly.
The Western Trust is the only area in Northern Ireland without a walk-in GUM clinic with patients currently having to schedule appointments.
