RITM Satellite Clinic for HIV Testing

I’ve been asked a lot of times where the best place is to have an HIV Test and The RITM Satellite Clinic in Malate, Manila always pops out. Curious about it, I researched about the place and the services and these are the things that came out:





  1. It is one of the most discreet, non-discriminatory and supportive clinics for an HIV Test
  2. FREE HIV Test and counseling.
  3. Open from Mondays to Sundays (except Tuesdays and Wednesdays)
  4. It is the ONLY clinic that offer FREE HIV testing on Saturdays and Sundays. Cut off of screening is 5:30pm. 
  5. The HIV Test uses both Rapid and Particle Agglutination HIV Tests which provide accuracy of up to 99%. This means that there is no need to wait for a confirmatory result (Western Blot Test) that would take 2-3 weeks.
  6. One can get the result from the HIV test 2 hours after the screening.
  7. Aside from HIV/STI Screening, the other services offered are: Dermatology Clinic, OB-Gynecology and Infectious Diseases/STD testing and consultation.
  8. Very accessible to public and private transportation
