What does the COVID-19 PCR swab test involve?

We conduct all tests at our clinics to ensure the test is administered correctly and that you receive your results as quickly as possible.

1. A simple throat and nose swab is taken under the direct supervision of our clinicians in our private consulting rooms.
2. Your test is collected by our London-based partner laboratory and processed on the same-day.
3. You will receive your results within 48-72 hours via email. The PCR Covid-19 Swab test will quickly determine whether or not you have an ACTIVE case of Covid-19.

You will receive your test results via email within 48-72 hours. Aftercare support and guidance on interpreting your result is available should you require it.

In the highly unlikely event that your test results are not received within 72 hours and provided that your follow all the guidelines and precautions provided to you, you will be issued a refund for your test fee. We are not liable for any other associated costs should your results be delayed.

How do I take my sample?

After filling out the booking request form, you will be contacted immediately to book an appointment at one of our clinics in London. Same-day appointments are available. Our clinics all have private consultation rooms where a clinician will supervise your test. The sample requires you take a swab from your throat and nose. Full instructions will be explained to you by your clinician.

Can you post me a test if I don’t live in London?

Currently we do not offer a postal testing service for Covid-19. Our clinicians supervise all tests to ensure that they are correctly administered. This is important in ensuring that you receive the right result. Failure to take the swab test in the correct manner, or to take the swab on behalf of someone else is a breach of our internal controls. We may introduce a postal service in the future.
