Confidential Individual STI Testing
Targeted STI testing when you know which infection to check. Walk-ins welcome subject to capacity; booking secures a time.
Do you need one STI test or a full screen?
An individual STI test is the right booking when you already know which infection you want checked, or you need a focused follow-up after treatment.
We do not share your visit or results with your NHS GP or another third party unless you ask us to. Pseudonym registration and cash payment are available.
If you have symptoms, a new partner, or want a doctor to choose the panel, a screening package with consultation is usually the better start. Packages include a doctor consultation and treatment when clinically indicated.

Samples, timing and when to test
The right test and timing depend on your symptoms, exposure and which sample type is needed. A doctor can advise at the visit if that is still unclear.
Sample preparation
Urine tests (chlamydia and gonorrhoea). When a urine sample is used, the clinic needs the first part of the urine stream (first-void urine). The clinician will explain how to provide the sample at your appointment.
Swab tests. Site depends on symptoms and anatomy. Herpes swabs are most useful when sores or blisters are present.
Blood tests. Standard serology samples for HIV, syphilis, hepatitis and herpes blood testing.
HIV timing. Because the right time to test depends on the exposure and the test used, ask a doctor at the visit or call 0207 499 1991 before booking if you need advice.
When results are usually ready
- Standard blood tests are generally available within 24 hours.
- Urine and most swab tests usually take 1–3 working days. A herpes swab can take 3–5 days.
- Six-hour results apply to FAST screening packages only, not individual tests.
