STIs or STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) are usually passed through sexual contact with an infected partner. They include many diseases such as HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital herpes, genital warts, hepatitis, syphilis, and others.
STDs are widespread – more than 2.5 million people in the U.S. are infected each year. Having a STI can make you more likely to get HIV.
Our clinic offers confidential, low cost STD testing for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV. An STD is an infection that is passed from person to person through sexual contact.
Get Tested
Protect yourself and get tested right away if you think you have any symptoms, or think you’ve been exposed to an STD. Many STDs don’t have any symptoms, especially in women. We offer low or no-cost testing for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV.
