As well as being able to book an appointment time that best suits you, we offer a 100% confidential service to ensure your visit is as stress free as possible. If your results come back positive, you will be notified over the phone, and a telephone consultation will be arranged so you can be advised on the best course of treatment.
WHAT HAPPENS FOLLOWING YOUR VISIT
Once we have collected your sample it will be sent to our laboratory for testing. Your results are returned via a previously agreed contact method, which is either phone or email. If your results return positive you’ll also be offered a telephone consultation with a GP from our partner medical organisation. They will be able answer any questions you have about your diagnosis and arrange for treatment or onward referral, should it be required.
If you can’t access one of our 100 private sexual health clinics across the UK, we would recommend ordering a home testing kit. They can be delivered to your chosen address within a few days, and you can take the sample yourself at home, before posting it back to us. As long as you collect your sample in the correct way, your test results should be just as accurate.
Everyone has their own reasons for getting tested, here are just some of the reasons that might encourage you to get tested:
- If you’re experiencing STD symptoms (take a look at our recent article for more information on the common signs of an STD)
- Starting a new relationship and you want to ensure you’re all clear
- If you’ve had a one night stand but didn’t use protection
- General peace of mind testing if you’ve had more than one sexual partner in the previous year
- Before beginning IVF or if you’re trying for a baby
- To support your VISA application if you’re moving to a country that requires HIV free certification
You should get tested after every new partner, to ensure you don’t unknowingly spread any STDs to future partners. If you don’t often change partners, you should still get a comprehensive STD screening every six months to a year. You should also get an STD test before you try for a baby, or start IVF treatment, to ensure your best chances of a healthy pregnancy.
If your test returns a positive result for an STD, you will be contacted straight away. A telephone consultation with a GP will then be arranged at no extra cost to you. The GP will be able to talk to you about your result, and also advise on the best course of action to take to treat the STD. They will prescribe you medication should it be required. We’re the only testing service in the UK to offer this level of aftercare.
