Private psychologists will probably perform them, but there is also the convenient option of finding out when your local branch of Mensa is having its next round of testing. One of the cheaper options, plus access to Mensa services such as the Travel special interest group (staying for free with interesting people around the world) if you're above the requisite percentile.

I was under the impression that Mensa's most recent test only provides pass/fail rather than an actual IQ score.

It gives you a percentile, which can be correlated.
