Confidential Sexual Health Testing in Darwin

Better2Know’s accurate and confidential STI testing services are available throughout Darwin. We are international experts in sexual health, helping thousands of people get tested for harmful infections every year around the world. At our private collection centres in Darwin, we can test you anonymously for a wide range of STIs, including HIV.

What is the difference between an STD and an STI?

An STD is a Sexually Transmitted Disease, and STI is a Sexually Transmitted Infection. Would you rather have an Infection or Disease? Most people would say neither, but then say Infection if they had to choose. So STI is being used more widely to encourage testing.

At your scheduled appointment in Darwin, you will be seen by a qualified discreet phlebotomist. They will collect the samples that are appropriate for your selected test or screen. The samples will then sent to our central, fully accredited laboratory for swift and efficient analysis. Your test results will be ready within one to five working days from when the sample is received in the lab, depending on your chosen test. With Better2Know, you can access your results online by logging into the secure patient area of our website. We will also contact you once all your results become available. If you would prefer, you can contact us instead.
