STI Fast Track: selected results in around 20 minutes
For suitable self-screening appointments, CareBridge Medical offers a rapid testing pathway with selected results typically available in around 20 minutes.
This option is designed for patients who want a faster visit and clear answers on the day. Availability depends on the test type, your circumstances and clinical suitability.

STI testing based on your needs
Many common STIs can be present without obvious symptoms. Testing may be appropriate after a new partner, sex without a condom, a possible exposure, a partner notification, or simply as part of routine sexual health screening.
If you do have symptoms, an in-clinic consultation allows the clinician to discuss them with you and decide which tests, samples or examination are appropriate.
