You can walk in a get an HIV one definitely, any GUM clinic will do that and syphillis and one of the heps but i don't know which one. Not sure about MRSA though.

Philtaz

MRSA results are usually reported on within 24 hours in our hospital. As for the HIV, Hep B/C it is usually 48/72 before our lab gives results and would be a little longer to report to your GP.

Are you worried about something bluedolphin?
