* If you're employed in Poland and have health insurance, you'll need to get the right paperwork in order. To do this, go to a local/family doctor (""lekarz rodzinny" in Polish) and ask for a referral ("skierowanie" in Polish) for a facility that does comprehensive check-ups, including blood tests. Then, you visit the facility and register there. You can choose to do a public facility, which should be free but could have very long wait times for appointments (some people have reported waiting for months). Alternatively, you can go to a private facility, which will be more costly but should be efficient. | |||
* If you would like free and anonymous HIV testing in Warsaw, here's the places to check out: | |||
** PKD przy Laboratorium Analiz Lekarskich "IZIS" ul. Chmielna 4 00-117 Warszawa | |||
** PKD przy Wojewódzkiej Stacji Sanitarno-Epidemiologicznej Ul. Żelazna 79 00-875 Warszawa | |||
** PKD przy Wojewódzkiej Stacji Sanitarno-Epidemiologicznej ul. Nowogrodzka 82 wejście B, II p. 02-018 Warszawa | |||
** "Punkt Konsultacyjno-Diagnostyczny przy Wojewódzkiej Stacji Sanitarno-Epidemiologicznej", Nowogrodzka 82 entrance B (2nd floor) --> This one is free but we're not sure if it's anonymous or not (you should ask to confirm). | |||
* [http://www.luxmed.pl/ Luxmed]: This is a private clinic that has facilities all over Warsaw (and Poland in general). If you want to be tested for more STIs than HIV only, this is probably a good place to go. Their website is in Polish and English, and they have English-speaking staff. It's known to be high-quality and trustworthy. | |||
