Why Should Bakersfield Residents Get Tested?
According to a recent study by the Kern County Public Health Department, STD rates throughout the county are on the rise. The county cited nearly 11,000 cases of common STDs in 2018 (chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV) including nearly 7,000 cases of chlamydia alone. Kern County rated as the third worst county in California for chlamydia diagnoses as well as sixth worst for primary syphilis, and fourth worst for gonorrhea. With these numbers continuously on the rise throughout Kern County, it is more important than ever that residents seek out reputable STD testing services and get tested whenever appropriate.
How Much Will It Cost?
The cost of testing depends on the type and/or number of tests you’re wishing to have conducted. Our individual tests (chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, herpes I/II, HIV 1 and 2, syphilis, and trichomoniasis) run between $49 and $109 each. We also offer a twin panel test for chlamydia and gonorrhea which costs $129 (a savings of $49) as well as an all-in-one ten-panel test which costs $198 (a savings of $405). For a complete list of test options, visit our “Tests & Pricing” page.
Where in Bakersfield Can I Get Tested?

We Are Better Than A “Free Clinic”
At each one of our Bakersfield testing facilities, we take every available step to ensure a comfortable atmosphere for our patients. You won’t be waiting in long lines or getting stuck in crowded waiting rooms. We don’t use invasive or inaccurate testing procedures. And we’ll never do anything to jeopardize your trust in our services. Our goal is to keep your tests and results completely confidential and off of your permanent medical record which is why we will never report anything to your healthcare provider. Testing facilities like free clinics cannot provide the same level of privacy, speed, or accuracy as one of our facilities.
