What is the Syphilis Test?
Syphilis is an infectious and contagious disease transmitted by sexual contact or by the transplacental route, especially by blood contact.
Why get a Syphilis test?
We use CE-certified laboratory equipment that sensitively and accurately detects Syphilis in your blood.
1 Syphilis Test:
- Syphilis: checks whether you have a sexually transmitted infection named Syphilis.
How does our Clinic Visit Syphilis test work?
Please make your appointment online and visit us on-site to have your blood drawn by our Registered Nurse. Please note that you must present your ID for your appointment.
- Do not take biotin supplements two days before the appointment.
How long do the Syphilis Detection test results take?
The target turnaround time for the Syphilis test results is 1 working day. The turnaround time is a guide only and sometimes depends on assay run schedules.
Missed appointments or cancellations less than 24 hours prior are not entitled to refunds. Rescheduling is possible but not guaranteed. Don’t hesitate to contact customer service before the appointment to discuss cost and availability options.
Why choose us for your Syphilis Test?

How does it work?
But how long do the Test results take?
The target turnaround time for Syphilis results is the same day at the Laboratory or 1-2 days if you choose a London Clinic. However, the turnaround time is a guide only and sometimes depends on the sample run schedule. Also, samples are processed 6 days a week.
* If your Siphilis result is positive, please visit your health provider for treatment *
Also, Medicines Online recommend the following sample management protocol.
Sample Management starts when you prick your finger for blood, make your swab or urine, or use your chosen Swab type for men or women. And please do not leave your sample around the Home for 1-2 days. Because it will arrive at the Laboratory already clotted or spoiled, and it can’t be processed. Therefore, please take your sample to the drop box or post office as close to the collection time as possible. Ensure that the sample is collected and not sitting overnight in the red drop box, waiting for the collection the next day or even several days later.
Waiting time is bad for your sample. Importantly, your sample must arrive at the Laboratory in good condition.
As you can see, getting an unspoiled blood sample to us is quite a chore. Maybe it’s better to come to our clinic and let us take the Syphilis Detection test sample for you.

Interpretations
Reading and interpreting Results:
The Instrument Manufacturer of our PCR and Extraction instruments are validated and specifies a sensitivity and accuracy of more than 80% and up to 98.7% depending on the sampling accuracy, the environment and conditions and the sampling method selected by the customer.
To explain in layman’s terms, a swab sample stick that carries 100,000 bacteria or virus bugs may give a different result than a swab sample stick with 10 bugs.
Overall result accuracy varies depending on patient infection intensity, health and quality of the sampling procedures by the home-based customer. And how many “bugs” are on the swab stick returned to our laboratory.
Result accuracy can be less than the above range due to these factors
