This is a rapid early detection HIV test. It is a PCR blood test that checks for HIV-1 RNA.
Why do this test? This HIV test is more sensitive than the standard HIV test and can pick up an HIV-1 infection after 10 days of exposure. However, if it has been 4 weeks or more after exposure, then we would recommend doing the standard HIV test.
There is no need for an appointment to do the early detection HIV test. After ordering it, you will receive a confirmation message with a map and directions attached. You can then go to Patient Reception at The Doctors Laboratory to give the sample. The laboratory is open 7am – 7pm weekdays and 7am-5pm on Saturdays.
Time taken: 1 working day *
