📅 2. Do I need an appointment? Can I walk in?
Many clinics offer both walk-in and scheduled appointments for testing and counseling. It’s best to check current hours and availability, especially if you want a specific service like PrEP consults.
🧬 3. What tests will I get and how long do results take?
Rapid HIV & syphilis tests: results often in ~20 minutes
STD tests (like chlamydia and gonorrhea): results in a few days Clinicians may collect blood, urine, or swab samples depending on the infection being checked.
💉 4. I don’t have symptoms — should I still get tested?
Yes! Most STIs have no symptoms, especially in early stages, so testing is the only way to know your status. Getting tested regularly is an important part of responsible sexual health.
❤️5. How often should I get tested?
Everyone sexually active should get tested at least once a year.
People with multiple partners or higher risk exposures may need testing more often (every 3–6 months). Your provider can help tailor the schedule to you.
🧴6. What is PrEP and who should consider it?
PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is medication that can greatly reduce the risk of getting HIV for people who are HIV-negative but at risk — like those with HIV-positive partners, inconsistent condom use, or multiple sex partners. A clinician can assess if PrEP is right for you.
❓7. What happens if a test is positive?
If you test positive for an STI or HIV:
Your provider will explain your results confidentially
You will be linked to appropriate treatment and follow-up care
Support and counseling are available to help you manage your health and prevent transmission to others.
🤝 8. Is my information private?
Yes. Testing and treatment are confidential. Your health information is protected by privacy laws, and results won’t be shared without your consent.
