Our sexual health test targets three pathogens that, if left untreated, can cause permanent damage to a woman’s reproductive system, including infertility, or potentially causing fatal ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy that occurs outside the womb). Fast PCR can help with early detection of these serious infections.
The most common reportable bacterial STI in the US2. Often without symptoms but is associated with significant healthcare costs, affects people of all ages, and is most common in young women.
The second most common reportable condition in the US, this bacterial STI3, if untreated, may cause infertility. Babies of infected mothers can be infected during childbirth.
Caused by a protozoan parasite, Trichomoniasis is the third most common STI in the US4, yet most do not realize they are infected. Trichomoniasis increases the risk of contracting other STIs, including 2-3 times greater risk of HIV acquisition5.

My patients come in, self-collect and get answers in the same visit. I appreciate that it facilitates education, I can provide specific education and treatment in the same visit - this really helps reduce patient anxiety. We've simplified our workflow with reduced need to chase down patients for results and pharmacy preferences. I’m also spending less time reviewing lab results in my inbox too.
Our office and patients are very satisfied with the Visby solution.

A lot of clinics you can get same-day results but those are going to come later in the day. We can actually give clients the results before they leave as we’re getting results within 30 minutes. We can start the test at the beginning of the appointment and by the time they’re done with their provider in the clinic assistance we’re going to have those labs so we can give them that same day but we can also provide treatment to that day as well as many individuals in the healthcare field know doing that follow-up calls for individuals who are positive can be very difficult.
