Thanks for the query.
VDRL result should have dilution factor in the report.
You can visit any hospital, as it does not require much expertise but is just an injection. However, the hospital should have facilities available for managing a complication or unforeseen events. remember getting a test dose done. You should be screened for other sexually transmitted diseases as well. TPHA remains positive after treatment but VDRL titres should fall. All the best.
