Where to get your lab test
RAMQ or Canadian Insurance Holders
Option 1: At the Student Wellness Hub
If you have a lab requisition from the Student Wellness Hub you can book your lab services at the Student Wellness Hub. Keep in mind that staff cannot do throat swabs for individuals who are experiencing symptoms regardless of the reason.
Option 2: In the community via Clic Santé
If you do not have a requisition from a Student Wellness Hub clinician, please visit Clic Santé to find an appointment. You can look for appointments at the hospitals (MUCH, Glen Site) to avoid out of pocket fees.
You can book several medical services, including ear lavage, STI tests, blood tests, vaccinations, and x-rays, through this centralized portal. Clic Santé allows booking at multiple locations across Montreal and Quebec, including at private clinics, hospital, pharmacies, and local community health centres (CLSCs). If you would like more information about testing in the hospital (MUHC McGill University Health Centre) system, please go to the MUHC testing website.
