Anonymous HIV testing at MAX Ottawa

If you need help testing, this service is for you: knowing your status should be simple and stress-free. That’s why MAX, in partnership with the Somerset West Community Health Centre (SWCHC), offers a new weekly HIV testing service out of our office (400 Cooper Street, Suite 9004). When you arrive at our office, a volunteer or staff member will be there to greet you. During your appointment, you’ll have an HIV rapid test administered on-site and receive your results within several minutes.

We're open for testing every Tuesday from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. Just a heads-up: we’ll be closed for testing on the last Tuesday of each month.

How to book

Give us a call or text at (613) 295-7594 to reserve your spot. If you didn’t get a chance to book, no worries! Drop-ins are available on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information or any questions, please email info@maxottawa.ca

Need more comprehensive STI testing?

We partner with GetAKit, where you can order full-service STI self-testing. You’ll need to register and create an account, if it’s your first time using the service, but after that, just log in to order more testing or to see your results. You will need an OHIP card to set up your account, You can find more information here at GetAKit’s Frequently Asked Questions page.
