On-demand Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) testing is a great way to get routine STI testing if you do not have symptoms of an STI and if you do not need to speak to a health care provider. Testing is free; you will be asked to provide your BC services card or Personal Health Number at the appointment. If you need to be treated, a nurse will contact you.
