Testing and Treatment
We test for common sexually transmitted infections, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B and C, and herpes when clinically indicated. Which tests you need depends on your history and exposures; part of the visit is a straightforward, private conversation to get that right.
When a result is positive, treatment usually starts the same day, with clear guidance on partner notification and retesting. Results are delivered privately, and your questions are answered by a clinician, not a portal message alone.
How We Protect Your Privacy
Discretion is built into how this visit runs, not added on request. Samples are collected in our own office, so there is no separate lab trip where you have to explain why you are there. Nothing about the reason for your visit appears on the outside of any correspondence.
Results are discussed with you directly and privately, by phone or at a follow up visit, whichever you prefer, and you tell us at the first visit which contact method to use and which to avoid. You will never receive a result as a bare portal notification with no one to ask about it. Your record is protected under HIPAA exactly as every other part of your care is, and results are not shared with anyone, including family members on your insurance plan, without your explicit permission.
When to Get Tested
Consider testing after a new partner, any unprotected exposure, symptoms such as discharge, burning, sores, or pelvic pain, or simply as routine screening, which national guidelines recommend for many sexually active adults. Same week appointments are usually available; book online or call.
