How do we perform the tests?
Rapid HIV Test
Our rapid HIV test gets you your results in 15-20 mins. We collect a small blood sample via the finger for this test. We also have a rapid test for Hepatitis C if needed.
Urine Collection
Our Urine tests check for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and Trichomoniasis. After we collect a sample of urine, we send it to the lab. You should get your results back in just a couple of days.
Blood Draw
Using a blood draw, we can test for Hepatitis C, Herpes 1&2, and Syphilis. We also use blood draws for HIV confirmatory testing.
Additional blood draws may be necessary for clients enrolling in PrEP or in need of treatment.
Get PrEP for Free
Free of judgment, free of hassle, free of charge.
We are providing free PrEP from intake to prescription. PrEP is a daily pill that prevents HIV for people who are negative. This is a great option for partners of people living with HIV, people who have multiple partners without knowing their status, or people who just simply want peace of mind.
