Where to go for a Test?
Where can I get tested?
Hepatitis C testing is available across
Scotland and is carried out by doctors and other health specialists
at clinics both in the community and in hospital settings. These
include:
- GP Surgeries. Just ask your doctor for a test, or a referral
for testing.
- Sexual Health (G.U.M.) Clinics. Although Hepatitis C is not
normally associated with sexually transmitted diseases, all GUM
clinics in Scotland offer the antibody test.
- Drug Dependency Units. Most drug dependency units can offer the
antibody tests to patients in treatment or being supported by a
community drug counsellor.
Ask at your GP's surgery or local voluntary sector support
organisation for contact details of your nearest test centre.
Alternatively search the Service
Finder for a test centre in your area.
