NHS Lothian wants to reaffirm its commitment to ensuring patients can access all health services whenever they need them.

In Lothian, we value and support our dedicated and specialist teams who work hard to provide person-centred care.

Chalmers provides vital sexual health services for a range of patients on matters such as: contraception; sexually transmitted infections; HIV testing, care and prevention; pregnancy; menopause; and support to victims of sexual assault.

We are disappointed to hear of the planned anti-abortion demonstration near the premises, which could have the effect of intimidating our staff and people that need support from our services.

We would like to reassure our patients that we remain resolute in providing a high standard of safe and legal care and will do all we can to minimise disruption.
