Results in 20 minutes

Rapid HIV Test (OraQuick)

Our most popular test — an oral fluid or fingerstick rapid test that provides results in about 20 minutes. No blood draw required for the oral version.

Catches earlier infections

HIV 4th Generation Antibody/Antigen

The most accurate HIV test available. Detects both HIV antibodies and the p24 antigen, allowing detection earlier than standard antibody-only tests.

Rapid & lab-based options

Syphilis Testing

Both rapid and laboratory-confirmed syphilis testing available. Early detection and treatment prevents serious long-term health complications.

Urine or swab testing

Gonorrhea & Chlamydia

Common STIs often have no symptoms. Regular testing is the only way to know your status. Results are confidential and treatment is available on-site.

Blood panel testing

Hepatitis B & C

Hepatitis B and C can remain undetected for years. We offer comprehensive Hep B and C screening with same-visit counseling and treatment linkage if needed.

Full screening package

Comprehensive STI Panel

Our full-panel STI screening covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis B and C — the most complete picture of your sexual health in one visit.
