Private Hepatitis Testing in the City of London

Viral hepatitis — including hepatitis A, B, and C — represents a significant public health concern. Hepatitis B and C can cause chronic liver infection that, if undetected, may progress to cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma over many years. The NHS estimates that hundreds of thousands of people in the UK are living with undiagnosed chronic hepatitis.

Our clinic offers targeted hepatitis testing using serology and, where appropriate, molecular methods. Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) testing identifies current infection, while hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) indicates immunity — either from vaccination or past resolved infection. Hepatitis C antibody testing detects exposure to the virus, with positive results requiring confirmatory RNA testing to determine active infection.

Hepatitis C is now curable in the vast majority of cases with direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy, available through NHS specialist hepatology or gastroenterology services. Hepatitis B, while not curable, can be effectively managed with antiviral therapy and regular monitoring under specialist care. Early detection through screening is essential to access treatment before liver damage occurs.
