Syphilis Test in London
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. In recent years, syphilis rates have increased across the UK, making regular screening an important part of responsible sexual health care. At South Kensington Medical & Dental, we offer confidential syphilis testing in London using laboratory-certified blood tests with clear clinical interpretation.
Syphilis often progresses silently, particularly in its early stages. Many individuals do not realise they are infected until the condition is identified through routine testing. Early diagnosis allows for straightforward antibiotic treatment and prevents long-term complications.

Who Should Consider a Syphilis Test?
You should consider a syphilis test in London if you:
• Have had unprotected vaginal, anal, or oral sex
• Have multiple or new sexual partners
• Are undergoing routine STI screening
• Have symptoms suggestive of syphilis
• Want reassurance about your sexual health
Regular testing is a responsible step in protecting both your health and the health of your partners.
Syphilis and Its Stages
Syphilis progresses through several stages if untreated:
• Primary Syphilis – A painless sore (chancre) at the site of infection
• Secondary Syphilis – Skin rash, flu-like symptoms, swollen lymph nodes, or no symptoms
• Latent Syphilis – No visible symptoms, but infection remains active
• Tertiary Syphilis – Rare but serious complications affecting the brain, heart, or nervous system
Many people are diagnosed during routine screening rather than due to symptoms.
Why Syphilis Screening Is Important
Syphilis develops in stages and can cause serious health issues if left untreated. Early detection through accurate laboratory testing helps identify infection at an earlier stage, allowing timely medical assessment where required.
