Riverside CA STD Testing
National STD rates are increasing every year, but the California Department of Public Health1 has some critical information for Riverside, California residents, in particular.
In 2018, 474.7 people per 100,000 population in Riverside, CA, received a chlamydia diagnosis. There were also 168.7 cases of gonorrhea per 100,000 population and 12.5 of primary and secondary syphilis.
According to the Riverside University Health System, chlamydia is the most commonly reported communicable disease in Riverside County, and the incidence of reported gonorrhea has more than doubled since 2010.
If you haven’t yet visited an STD testing Riverside CA location, now could be the right time to start looking at your options. Many sexually transmitted diseases are asymptomatic, which means the only way to know with any accuracy that you have chlamydia, syphilis, gonorrhea, genital herpes, or another STD is by visiting STD testing centers.
Fortunately, it’s easy to find a lab when you rely on Priority STD Testing in Riverside, CA. Priority STD Testing is a local STD testing facility operating within Quest Diagnostics. It’s fast, non-invasive, and accessible.
All you need to do is book individual tests, such as a trichomoniasis or syphilis test, or a testing panel online or over the phone, and turn up to your nearest STD screening location. This might be in Riverside, San Bernardino, Moreno Valley, Santa Ana, or anywhere near you.
After you make your test booking, you don’t need to make an appointment or visit with a referral from a public health center. You simply need to turn up, provide a blood or urine sample with no need for swabs, and wait for your test results. These arrive in as little as three business days, while your overall appointment is complete in under half an hour.
