Author/Creator: Grotowski, Miriam; May, Jenny

Description: The human papillomavirus vaccine (Gardasil) catch up schedule in general practice provides a unique opportunity for sexual health screening in females not in school and up to 27 years of age. Chlamydia is a priority in this age group. This article presents a case for the value of opportunistic testing for chlamydia in patients presenting for Gardasil vaccination.
