For testing involving urine samples, including chlamydia and gonorrhea, do not urinate or engage in sexual intercourse for one hour before testing.

Many STD tests require a genital exam.

Rapid HIV testing can be done by swabbing the inside of your mouth. The results are available in 20-40 minutes.

Counseling and confidential (private) testing for STDs are provided by trained staff who are sensitive to your needs and concerns.

This health center offers an express STD screening service, which is provided on a walk-in basis during regular business hours. Patients are seen by a Health Center Assistant/Health Center Specialist and are tested for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and HIV.

Please note: For most STDs, a 6 week waiting period after a suspected exposure is necessary in order for test results to be accurate.

Individuals ages 19 - 26 who have no health insurance and meet financial criteria may qualify for the Merck Vaccine Patient Assistance Program to receive the HPV vaccine (Gardasil) at no charge. Other fees may apply.

Some vaccines are given in a series over the course of several months, which would require you to return to the health center to get the full benefit.
