Kensington Family Clinic is an approved Anonymous HIV Testing Site by the Ministry of Health Singapore. This means individuals can undergo HIV testing without providing personal identification, within a licensed medical setting. Consultations are conducted by qualified healthcare professionals, with appropriate advice and follow-up where required.
Anonymous HIV testing does not require you to provide any names, NRIC numbers or contact numbers. Instead, a number is usually assigned to the test which allows the person being tested to receive the test results. No personal particulars are recorded, even with positive results of the HIV tests.
This means:
In Singapore, Anonymous HIV testing is available only at approved clinics and testing sites in accordance with Ministry of Health (MOH) regulations and the Infectious Diseases Act. This service allows individuals to check their HIV status without having their personal identity recorded in the test result. Anonymous testing provides a confidential way to get tested while still ensuring proper medical care, counselling and follow-up.

In Singapore, it is generally recommended that adults test for HIV at least once, with more frequent testing for those at higher risk.
At Kensington Family Clinic, HIV testing and counselling are provided in a professional, respectful and medically compliant setting.

If a rapid test is reactive, a confirmatory test is required for diagnosis.
After potential exposure to HIV, there is a “window period”—the time before the virus can be detected by tests.
Your doctor will advise on the appropriate timing based on your exposure risk.
Many individuals choose anonymous HIV testing for added privacy and peace of mind. You may consider testing if you:
Have had unprotected vaginal, oral or anal sex
Have a new sexual partner or multiple partners
Are starting a new relationship and want to know your status
Have had a potential exposure (e.g. condom failure)
Have never been tested before
Simply want reassurance about your health
HIV can be present without symptoms for years. Testing is the only reliable way to know your status.
MOH encourages individuals who are sexually active or at higher risk to undergo HIV screening periodically. Early detection allows for prompt treatment and significantly improves long-term health outcomes.
