STD TESTING & SERVICES at City Clinic
Appointments are available on Thursday mornings for HIV Early Care services (call 415-487-5526) and Women's Health services (call 415-487-5552).
STD services at City Clinic are offered on a drop-in basis. Specially trained healthcare providers are available for evaluation, testing and treatment for common sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital warts, herpes, non-gonoccocal urethritis (NGU), syphilis, and vaginal infections (trichomoniasis, yeast, and bacterial vaginosis). There are also testing and treatment services available for many lesser known STDs like chancroid, crabs, lymphogranuloma venereum, molluscum contagiosum, mucopurulent cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and scabies, among others.
In addition to clinical exams and evaluation, the Clinic offers on-site lab testing, on-site dispension of medications and STD patient education and partner notification and treatment services.
