My friend had this same incident happen to her, where she had to revisit the clinic, she went in and admitted she has lied about her name and address and the people were surprisingly nice (I went with her this time for moral support) they said they had this sort of thing quite a lot especially with those in that age group ie 20s.

I wouldnt worry, if they are nice and friendly as you said yourself then you'll be fine, remember these people are professionals and all info is confidential.

Just try not to do it again
Good luck man/woman/person lol

To be honest I'd say 60% of people give false information because of multiple reasons (not out/ Married/ embarrassed etc) so they know to expect it and understand that everyone has their reasons. I think the fact that you turn up for the second appointment and show you are showing genuine responsibility for yours and others health will far over shadow any concern's about information you gave most likely in a split second moment of panic.
