You can get UTI treatment online today. A video consultation with a private GP takes 15 minutes. If appropriate, antibiotics are prescribed and sent to your pharmacy same-day. No waiting, no clinic visit, no embarrassment.
How It Works

Same-day video appointments available.
Step 2: Describe Your Symptoms
Tell the GP about:
Burning or pain when urinating
Frequent need to urinate
Lower abdominal pain
Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
How long symptoms have lasted
Step 3: Get Treatment
If the GP confirms a UTI, they'll prescribe antibiotics. The prescription goes electronically to your chosen pharmacy. Collect it the same day.

Can You Diagnose UTI Without a Urine Test?
For straightforward UTIs in women with typical symptoms, GPs can often diagnose based on symptoms alone and prescribe antibiotics.
When Testing Is Needed:
Recurrent UTIs
Symptoms not typical
Men (UTIs less common, need investigation)
Pregnant women
Not responding to treatment
We can arrange urine testing if clinically indicated.
UTI Treatment
First-Line Antibiotics for UTI:
Nitrofurantoin (3-7 days)
Trimethoprim (3 days)
You Should Feel Better Within:
24-48 hours of starting antibiotics
Complete the full course even if symptoms improve
Self-Care Alongside Antibiotics:
Drink plenty of water
Urinate when you need to
Paracetamol for pain
Avoid alcohol and caffeine
