If you think you have a urinary tract infection, you can book a video GP appointment or an in-clinic slot here instead of waiting for a routine NHS appointment.

About UTIs
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection affecting the bladder, urethra or, less commonly, the kidneys. Common symptoms include a burning sensation when urinating, needing to urinate more often or urgently, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and discomfort in the lower abdomen. Most UTIs affecting the bladder are straightforward to treat, though kidney infections need more urgent attention.
