Private COVID-19 Testing London

At the moment we are unable to provide COVID-19 PCR tests for travellers unless it is for our existing members, or for our corporate clients. Members and existing clients can have a Covid-19 PCR test either at a home visit by a nurse or receive a self-testing kit. We do not currently provide any in-person or walk-in Covid-19 testing services to the public; Covid-19 testing for one-off purposes is not available to non-members at this stage.

It is considered important to test these patients for COVID-19, yes. Not only do you get a picture of the true extent of the virus, but this can also help us stop asymptomatic carriers spreading the virus without realising it. Each case is unique however; and in some situations it is vital to test those who are asymptomatic if they have come into contact with a COVID-19 case, or to ensure they have 2 negative COVID-19 PCR swab results before they re-engage with the community, return to work, or engage with vulnerable patients. Our doctors will guide our clients and members on this in further detail, and provide advice on the timing of doing the test along with self-isolation too, for each unique case.

Yes, it is possible that you have COVID-19. Since March 2020, our doctors have advised hundreds of patients who have tested positive with no symptoms, the most mild symptoms all the way to the most severe symptoms requiring hospitalisation. Every patient is unique; your body is different to anyone else’s. Therefore, you may not respond to COVID-19 in the same way as someone else. Our doctors will provide the appropriate medical advice based on your symptoms, as even without the 3 main symptoms, you still may need to get tested and self-isolate.

All positive COVID-19 PCR test results must be shared with Public Health England. Private laboratories are now obliged to share your results along with contact details with NHS Test & Trace, if you have tested positive for COVID-19. There is further information about the NHS Test & Trace service here

It really depends on your unique case; our doctors will be happy to discuss this further and provide the appropriate medical advice to you. You must always follow Public Health England guidelines, but in some cases to be safe, doctors will advise you to continue self-isolating especially if you have symptoms or have come into contact with someone who has COVID-19. There are limitations to testing; so it is really important to take medical advice from a doctor alongside your COVID-19 test, so he/she can advise you properly.
