To book your appointment, please click the "Book Your Appointment" button at the top of the page. Select a suitable clinic, date, and time that meets your needs.

What can I expect at my appointment?

At your appointment, your blood sample will be collected by one of our doctors.

They will send it to our accredited laboratory for analysis. We will report your results as soon as they are ready. This is usually the next working day after your sample is received in the laboratory.

How will I receive my test results?

Your test results will be uploaded to your secure online Patient Area as soon as they become available. Additionally, you will receive a notification through your preferred method of communication, whether it be a telephone call, email, or text message. We will contact you within the first three days of reporting your result to discuss your next steps if you are positive.

What if I test positive?

If your test results indicate a positive result for HIV, your Better2Know doctor will be there to help you. They will discuss your options with you and advise on the next steps. There is no cure for HIV, but advances in medication mean that most people who are positive and on medication can lead a normal length of life.
