STD Testing

WHAT IS STD TESTING?

STD (sexually transmitted disease) testing is a diagnostic that is performed during a quick office visit to Your Family Medical Clinic. Some STDs may cause symptoms to exhibit immediately, but others do not. The only way to ensure that your sexual health is in great standing is to receive STD testing. It’s also the most effective way to protect your sexual partners from potentially contracting an infection or disease. Our team places a special focus on compassionate, patient-driven care, and we value your privacy and wellness above all else.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING AN STD SCREENING

STD testing can be performed in a quick trip to one of our offices. In many cases, no blood work is needed. Instead, one of our providers will take a urine sample or an inner cheek swab to collect data. From there, your screening will be completed at Your Family Medical Clinic. Once your results are in, our team will discuss them with you privately. If any care is needed, we will educate you on your best options and provide you with the right solution for your health and lifestyle.

LOOK AFTER YOUR SEXUAL HEALTH

While STD testing can sound embarrassing or even scary, we want to assure all of our patients that it is a perfectly normal protocol for individuals who are sexually active. Our providers at Your Family Medical Clinic will take you through the steps of an STD screening with compassion and care. To ensure that your sexual health is in the best shape possible, contact our office.
