Victoria consistently records the highest number of STI notifications in Australia. According to the Victorian Department of Health, chlamydia is the most commonly notified infectious disease in the state, with Melbourne accounting for the majority of diagnoses. Gonorrhoea notifications in Victoria have more than doubled in the past decade, and infectious syphilis rates continue to climb — particularly among men who have sex with men and in metropolitan Melbourne. The Melbourne Sexual Health Centre (MSHC) at Alfred Health is the busiest public sexual health clinic in Australia, reflecting the scale of demand for testing in this city.

Melbourne pathology providers — you can use your Clinic365 referral at any of the major pathology networks in Melbourne. The largest providers include Melbourne Pathology (the biggest pathology provider in Victoria, with collection centres in most suburbs), Dorevitch Pathology (part of Healius, with wide coverage across Melbourne and regional VIC), and Australian Clinical Labs (part of Sonic Healthcare, with centres across metropolitan and outer Melbourne). Most centres accept walk-ins Monday to Friday and Saturday mornings — no appointment needed.

With more pathology labs than any other Australian city, Melbourne offers unmatched convenience for walk-in testing. You complete a 2-minute online questionnaire, receive a pathology referral by SMS, then walk into any Melbourne collection centre. The visit takes about 10–20 minutes: a blood test for syphilis, HIV, and hepatitis, plus a urine sample for chlamydia and gonorrhoea. Optional self-collect throat, vaginal, and rectal swabs are also available at most labs.

If you are unsure where to go, use the Clinic365 pathology finder to locate your nearest collection centre in Melbourne. Most suburbs have at least one Melbourne Pathology or Dorevitch lab within a short drive or tram ride.

Most results are sent directly to you by SMS within 24 hours. If everything is negative, you receive a clear result message. If any test is positive, a Specialist GP contacts you directly to arrange treatment — either by telehealth ($59) or at our East Melbourne clinic for an in-person consultation ($149). Most STIs are easily treated with a short course of antibiotics prescribed to your nearest Melbourne pharmacy.
