Look into your local clinic and its privacy protocol. In the US, STD testing and treatment can be obtained in most states without parental notification or consent. This may/not be true in the UK. Notification & type of encounter notices are also sent to parents here if you are seen on their insurance. I don't know if UK healthcare does it. if you think you need it get it done, regardless.
