STI and HIV Testing in Toowoomba

You will be seen by a discreet qualified phlebotomist who will collect your blood and/ or urine samples and send them to our central laboratory for analysis. Results are ready within five working days of your sample’s arrival at the laboratory, depending on the test or screen you choose. Many results will be available in one to two days after your sample arrives at our central laboratory.

With a network of doctors across Australia, Better2Know can arrange specialist consultations should they be requested. For example, this service may be suited to people who are nervous prior to their test or those who have received a positive diagnosis. Better2Know’s team of experienced doctors is happy to help.

What happens if my STI Test result is positive?

As part of the Better2Know comprehensive STI testing service, should any of your results come back positive, we will organise a consultation with a doctor who will get you a prescription for any medications required or provide a referral to a specialist service if you need further assessments.

Are STIs increasing in Toowoomba?

In recent years, people under 50 had the most STI diagnoses of any age group in Queensland. Social factors such as traveling more often, and lower rates of condom use have contributed to this increase. At Better2Know, we provide highly accurate testing without asking any uncomfortable questions.

STI and an STD: What is the difference?

Both phrases mean the same thing an STI is a Sexually Transmitted Infection, and STD is a Sexually Transmitted Disease. STI is the current most used phrase as doctors at sexual health clinics say their patients preferred to have an infection than a disease.
