Better2Know's medical team has developed our tests to give you the results you need. We offer a wide variety of STI tests and screens that test for dozens of infections.

Here are some of our most popular screens available at our Canterbury clinics:

• Full Screen - The ideal STI screening choice for individuals who have had unprotected sex or have a new partner. This screening tests for HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Syphilis, Hepatitis B, Mycoplasma, and Ureaplasma.
• Platinum Plus Screen - The Platinum Plus Screen is Better2Know’s most comprehensive STI screen. It tests for 11 harmful infections. You will get results within three working days after your sample arrives at our accredited laboratory.
• Herpes Testing - This common STI can lead to sores, blisters, and itching. Seek testing to get the treatment required to ease your symptoms.
• Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea Testing - Determine your STI status for two bacterial STIs with a quick PCR test on a urine sample.

Getting an STI screen gives you wider coverage than a test for a single infection. You can also add tests for other infections to the screen you choose for a small fee.
