Online is the easiest and fastest way to book an appointment. If there are no appointments available for the service you would like please try again on another day. Appointments are usually opened up on a regular basis. The phone service do not have any other appointments available for the service. You can also reschedule and cancel appointments online. 

We are currently unable to appoint patients to Sandyford for contraception (coils/implants/pills) if you do not reside within NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde. This does not include patients who live in G69 & G33 for Coil appointments. 

We understand that some people are finding it difficult to obtain a contraception appointment online.

We acknowledge that the number of appointments we can offer do not always meet the demand of the number of patients looking for an appointment. This means that once we have added a clinic the appointments get booked up very quickly. This is why we recommend checking as often as you are able to look for an available appointment.

Prior to the pandemic, many GP surgeries were carrying out these contraception appointments within their own surgeries, however this service has not yet resumed again for all of them. This has therefore significantly increased the number of patients looking to access this service within all of our Sandyford sites. A number of GP practices do offer contraceptive appointments though. You can check with your own GP practice if this is available.

We are currently unable to appoint patients to Sandyford for contraception (coils/implants/pills) if you do not reside within NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde. This does not include patients who live in G69 & G33 for Coil appointments.

Please ensure that you arrive at Sandyford around 10 minutes before your appointment is due to start. This is so that you can register before you attend your appointment. 

Children – Children will not always be allowed into your appointment with you. This is because it is not always safe to have children in the clinical room. You are welcome to bring an adult with you, to Sandyford to look after your children when you attend your appointment, as we do not have childcare facilities available. If you do bring children with you without another adult, the clinician may decide the procedure needs to be rearranged.
