HPV test

An HPV test looks for human papillomavirus — a common cause of cervical cell changes. When indicated, it is discussed as part of screening alongside cytology and clinical assessment.

With Dr. Maria Raykova in Sofia, the visit is calm, with time for questions and clear explanations.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the HPV test cost?

The price of the HPV test is not in the practice's published price list. Call 0894 972 626 and they will tell you before you book.

Does an HPV test replace a Pap smear?

Not always. The two tests provide different information. Which is appropriate — or whether they are combined — depends on age and clinical context.

What does a positive HPV result mean?

It means the virus is present, not necessarily a serious finding. The doctor explains next steps — monitoring, further tests, or colposcopy.

Book online via Superdoc or call the clinic at 0894 972 626.

Does the clinic work with NHIF?
