Before You Book

  • If you have symptoms, need an exam, treatment, or anything other than STI testing, Test & Go is not for you. Come see us at our regular clinic.

Do I Need a Test?

  • We recommend you get tested every 6 months, or when you have a new sexual partner. 
  • If your partner has an STI, you might need a treatment. Come see us at our regular clinic. 

What You Can Expect

  • Come Prepared: don’t urinate for 1 hour before the test.

  • You must present your Ontario Health Card on arrival (International Students will be directed to other clinics)
