Conditions we treat on-site

Treatment for all common STDs seen in Singapore is available directly at our clinic, with no external referral needed for the conditions below.

Bacterial (Curable)

Chlamydia

Single or short-course antibiotic

Singapore's most commonly reported bacterial STD, often asymptomatic. Treatment at Mediway is typically a single dose of azithromycin or a 7-day course of doxycycline, dispensed on-site. Retest at 4 weeks post-treatment to confirm clearance.

Gonorrhoea

Injection + oral antibiotic

Bacterial infection affecting the genitals, throat, and rectum. Rising antibiotic resistance means dual therapy is standard: a ceftriaxone injection plus oral azithromycin, administered same-day. Partner testing and treatment are essential.

Syphilis

Penicillin protocol, stage-dependent

Progresses through primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary stages. Treatment is a benzathine penicillin injection. Dose and frequency depend on the stage at diagnosis. Follow-up VDRL blood tests at 6 and 12 months confirm clearance.

Mycoplasma genitalium

Targeted antibiotic

Lesser-known but increasingly recognised cause of urethritis and pelvic inflammation. Treatment is a targeted antibiotic regimen (typically azithromycin or moxifloxacin) guided by resistance patterns. Test of cure advised at 4 weeks.

Ureaplasma

Culture-guided antibiotic

Bacterial organism that can cause urethritis and vaginitis in some patients; often detected alongside other infections. Treatment is usually a 7 to 14 day course of doxycycline or azithromycin, culture-guided where resistance is suspected.

Non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU)

Empirical antibiotic

Urethral inflammation not caused by gonorrhoea, often linked to chlamydia, mycoplasma, or ureaplasma. Treatment starts empirically with doxycycline or azithromycin while awaiting specific test results. Partner treatment is advised.

Full guide on NGU

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) / Gardnerella

Oral or topical antibiotic

An imbalance of vaginal bacteria, not strictly sexually transmitted but closely linked. Treatment is oral or topical metronidazole or clindamycin. Recurrence is common, so lifestyle guidance is included in consultation to reduce repeat episodes.

What to expect at your visit

  1. Check in

    Basement level, The Riverwalk. Private reception, so no one else sees why you're there.

  2. Consultation

    15–20 mins. Doctor reviews results, confirms diagnosis, discusses treatment options.

  3. Prescription

    Most bacterial STDs: treatment starts same day. Injectables administered on-site.

  4. Follow-up plan

    Retest timing, partner notification steps, any follow-up visits explained before you leave.

Total visit time: typically 30–45 minutes. Bring your test results (printed, PDF, or screenshot) if you tested elsewhere.

After treatment: follow-up, retesting, partner notification

Treatment doesn't end at prescription. Three things to plan for.

Test of cure (retest)

Bacterial STDs (chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, mycoplasma) should be retested 4 to 12 weeks after treatment completion to confirm clearance.

Viral STDs (herpes, hepatitis) are managed long-term with periodic monitoring rather than test-of-cure.

Partner notification

If you test positive, recent sexual partners should get tested. Mediway supports patient-driven partner notification:

We provide guidance on the conversation, sample wording, and a take-home information sheet your partners can bring to their own doctor. We keep your identity confidential. We do not contact partners directly.

MOH's DSC Clinic offers a government contact-tracing programme for some conditions if you'd prefer that route.

Complete your course

Finish the full antibiotic course even if symptoms improve early. Missing doses increases resistance and relapse risk.

If you miss doses or have side effects, message our team. Don't stop medication without guidance.

Your privacy and billing

Treatment for STDs is as sensitive as testing. The same privacy protections apply at every visit.

  • Discreet clinic location

    Basement level of The Riverwalk, inside a shared medical floor, not a street-front storefront.

  • No records shared with insurers or employers by default

    Treatment notes, prescriptions, and follow-up are not shared with insurers, employers, or other third parties unless you specifically request it. Note: positive diagnoses for certain notifiable infections (HIV, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhoea, and acute hepatitis A, B and C) are reported to MOH under Singapore’s Infectious Diseases Act. This is a legal requirement separate from insurance disclosure.

  • Self-pay option

    Pay privately for consultation and medication to keep the visit entirely outside insurance systems.

  • Digital communication

    Results and follow-up messages via phone, WhatsApp, or secure email, whichever you prefer. No physical mail to your home.

  • PDPA-compliant data handling

    All personal and medical data managed per Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act. See our full Privacy Policy.

Frequently asked questions

01How much does STD treatment cost at Mediway?

Doctor consultation is $38 per visit (inclusive of GST). Medication is billed separately at cost depending on what's prescribed. We'll quote the medication fee during your consultation before you commit. Follow-up visits are also $38.

02Can I get treatment on the same day I test positive?

Yes, in most cases. If you tested with us and the result is positive, our doctor can prescribe treatment at the same visit where results are explained. If you tested elsewhere and are coming to us for treatment, bring your test report. Treatment can usually begin at the first consultation.

03Is all STD treatment done on-site at Mediway?

Bacterial STDs, HIV, herpes, and hepatitis management are handled on-site. HPV wart removal (cryotherapy, electrocautery) is not offered at our clinic; we refer to specialist partners. For complex HIV cases, we refer to infectious-disease specialists.

04What does partner notification involve?

Partner notification means telling your recent sexual partners so they can get tested. At Mediway we support you with guidance (what to say, how to approach it), and a take-home info sheet you can share with partners. We don't contact your partners directly. You decide when and how. The MOH-run DSC Clinic offers a government partner-notification programme for certain conditions if you'd prefer that route.

05Can I pay self-pay to keep treatment private from my insurance?

Yes. Many patients choose self-pay for STD treatment to keep it entirely outside insurance systems. We accept cash, NETS, and major credit cards.

06How long will I need follow-up visits?

For bacterial STDs, usually just one follow-up at 4 to 12 weeks post-treatment for a "test of cure". For viral conditions (herpes, hepatitis B), treatment is long-term, with visits every 3 to 6 months typical once stable. We'll lay out the plan at your first consultation.

07What if I miss a dose of my medication?

Message us via WhatsApp before stopping anything. Missed doses of antibiotics increase the chance treatment fails and that the bacteria become resistant. We can guide you on whether to continue, restart, or retest.

08Will Mediway notify my employer or insurance?

No. Treatment records stay confidential unless you explicitly request disclosure (for example, for insurance claims or premarital screening certificates). STD diagnoses are not entered on any national health record by default.
