Herpes: Understanding Testing and When to See a Doctor

You cannot call anyone to get screened for herpes before you have symptoms as there is no such screening available. Herpes can only be diagnosed by a healthcare provider, typically a doctor or nurse practitioner, who can assess your symptoms and perform tests if necessary. Pre-symptoms screening is not available for herpes. If you think you have herpes based on symptoms you are experiencing, make an appointment with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and diagnosis.
