Book Your Appointment Now
Markham patients with possible gonorrhea symptoms or a recent exposure can book a confidential virtual visit with TelePlus Care. A licensed doctor reviews your case, orders a urine NAAT test or swab when needed, and advises appropriate antibiotic treatment. A licensed doctor reviews your intake before the visit and explains the safest next step.
- Confidential virtual STI consultation with a licensed doctor
- Testing requisitions sent to LifeLabs or Dynacare collection sites across Markham
- Antibiotic treatment guidance, including referral for an in-person injection when required
- Your intake helps the clinician understand your symptoms, history, and goals before the visit.
Clinical content is reviewed for accuracy and scope. TelePlus Care appointments proceed only when clinically appropriate after a real assessment, and the doctor will explain the next step if virtual care is not the right fit.
What Gonorrhea Is and How Markham Patients Recognize It
Gonorrhea is a common bacterial sexually transmitted infection caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It is frequently silent, meaning many people carry it without any symptoms, which is why testing after exposure matters. Book a confidential virtual visit if you notice any of the following:
- Unusual discharge from the penis, vagina, or rectum
- Burning or pain during urination
- Pelvic or lower abdominal pain in women
- Testicular pain or swelling in men
- Sore throat or rectal discomfort after oral or anal contact
Discreet Virtual STI Care for Markham
Visiting a walk-in clinic in Markham, whether near Markville Mall, Main Street Unionville, or along Highway 7, can feel exposing when the concern is a sexually transmitted infection. Our virtual service lets you discuss symptoms privately with a licensed doctor, usually within about 30 minutes. Gonorrhea is confirmed with a urine NAAT test or a swab processed by the provincial lab. The doctor orders the appropriate testing and can treat based on results or a known exposure.
Treatment Options and Why an In-Person Visit May Be Needed
Gonorrhea is treated with antibiotics. The standard approach is usually an injection of ceftriaxone, often given together with an oral antibiotic. Because antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea is a growing concern, your doctor will advise the appropriate option for your situation. Since the injection must be given in person, the doctor may direct you to a Markham clinic, a sexual health service, or the nearest hospital to receive it. Partners should be tested and treated, and you should avoid sex until you and your partners have completed treatment and been cleared.
When to Seek In-Person or Emergency Care in Markham
Many cases of gonorrhea can be assessed and managed virtually, but certain situations need in-person evaluation. Markham Stouffville Hospital has an emergency department, or you can attend the nearest hospital emergency department.
- Pregnancy with possible gonorrhea or any STI symptoms
- Fever with severe pelvic or abdominal pain (possible pelvic inflammatory disease)
- Eye redness, pain, or discharge that may signal eye involvement
- Joint pain, swelling, or a widespread rash (possible disseminated infection)
- Any situation where an injectable antibiotic is required

- A urine NAAT or swab confirms the diagnosis through the Ontario provincial lab
- A test of cure may be recommended depending on the site of infection
- Recent sexual partners should be tested and treated to prevent reinfection
- Avoid sexual contact until you and your partners are cleared
