Our services
STD Screening and Testing
Regular STD screening is essential for sexually active individuals, especially those with multiple partners or concerns about potential exposure. Our clinic offers confidential and accurate testing for a wide range of infections. Depending on the infection type, tests may involve blood samples, urine analysis, or swabs from the affected area.
- Routine Testing – We recommend regular STD screenings for all sexually active individuals, even in the absence of symptoms. Early detection allows for timely treatment and reduces the risk of complications.
- Comprehensive Panel – Our clinic provides extensive STD testing, including screenings for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, HPV, and more. We also offer rapid testing for certain infections, ensuring quick results and immediate treatment when necessary.
Diagnosis and Treatment
If an STD is diagnosed, our clinic provides expert medical care tailored to the type of infection. Treatment plans vary based on the nature of the condition:
- Bacterial Infections – STDs caused by bacteria, such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis, are treated with antibiotics. Our team ensures appropriate medication and follow-up care for complete recovery.
- Viral Infections – While some viral STDs, such as herpes and HIV, are not curable, they can be effectively managed with antiviral medications. We provide treatment and ongoing support to help patients control symptoms and minimize transmission risks.
- Recurrent Infections – For patients experiencing recurrent conditions, such as genital herpes, we offer long-term management strategies to reduce the frequency and severity of outbreaks.
Counseling and Education
Education is key to preventing STDs and promoting safe sexual health. Our clinic offers personalized counseling sessions to help patients understand their risks, adopt preventive measures, and make informed decisions.
- Safe Sex Practices – We provide guidance on condom use and other protective measures to reduce STD transmission risks. Patients also receive education on the importance of routine testing and open communication with partners.
- Partner Notification and Treatment – If a patient tests positive, informing sexual partners is crucial to prevent further spread. Our clinic offers support on how to approach these conversations and ensure partners receive necessary care.
- Vaccination – Vaccines are available for certain STDs, such as HPV and hepatitis B. We encourage eligible individuals to get vaccinated as part of a proactive approach to sexual health.
HIV Counseling and Testing:
HIV is a lifelong infection that can be effectively managed with early diagnosis and treatment. Our clinic offers confidential HIV testing and counseling services for individuals who may be at risk. For patients diagnosed with HIV, we provide access to antiretroviral therapy (ART), which helps control the virus and improves overall quality of life.
Management of Complications:
Untreated STDs can lead to severe complications, such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), infertility, or an increased risk of certain cancers. Our clinic provides expert care for managing these complications, offering both medical and surgical interventions if necessary.
