i'm seeing more providers these days, so taking it upon myself to be a good client and get tested regularly.

i've tried to book through the city, but the public health clinic appointments are week-to-week and book up quite quickly.

where do you do you get your STI testing done?

I would say see your doctor and probably got a referral to lifelabs...

Safer6ix is super easy to book with. They don't do blood draws on site but will do your swabs and urine and give you a rec for blood work at a lab.

Try The Hassle Free Clinic. They're located downtown and they accept anyone for STI testing. Even if you don't have a health card they will still take you. Their main priority is safety so they will test anybody

They work by appointment only and theres a specific day that's a Men's Clinic. It's easy to book an appointment and you can usually get in quite quick. They'll test you for everything standard as well as including doing a swab for herpes. They can even refer you to a lab if more blood work is necessary

You got your results within 7 to 10 days

And it's strictly confidential.

Just curious is there anything in the Hamilton Burlington area? Also, if I go to one of these clinics is it shared with my GP? I frankly don't feel comfortable talking to him about it as he's older, judgemental and I've noticed he's let confidential information (non sexual) slip before to my SO.

I’d get proof of that and have a nice pay day. Breach of confidentiality is huge.

I was prescribed an SSRI Yeats ago and when my SO went for an appointment a few months later he asked her how I was doing on the SSRI? It wasn't a secret from her but I was a little taken aback he would freely talk about that with her. What if it was a secret?

He totally breached your privacy. That is not right at all.

Went in recently to check something (Downtown location) - got the "all clear / green light" from the Doctor!

Excellent clinic, I was very much impressed with everything start to finish! Very good website / detailed intake process / professional throughout / by appointment only so didn't have to wait long at all / Doctor was great - highly recommended!

Go online to teletest, get a script and then just go to Lifelabs or something like that. It doesn't effect your Doctor's OHIP billing in anyway and unless they search, they won't even know.
