Why Should Charlotte Residents Get Tested?

According to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services and STI Surveillance Reports produced by the CDC, Mecklenburg County boasts a much higher rate of STI and STD cases across the board than state and national averages. Most recently, new chlamydia cases in Mecklenburg County stood at 819.9 compared to the North Carolina average of 612.2 and national average of 528.8. Even more shocking, primary/secondary syphilis cases in Mecklenburg County as well as HIV infection cases were measured at a rate more than double the state and national average. With statistics like these on the rise in Mecklenburg County, we cannot stress enough the importance of getting proper STD testing when 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 Charlotte Can I Get Tested?

We have more than 4,000 testing sites across the country, including three in Charlotte and dozens more throughout North Carolina. Our facilities are open from 6:00 am to 6:30 pm on weekdays from 7:00 am to noon on Saturday. To find the lab closest to you, visit our “Find A Lab” page and enter your five-digit zip code.

We Are Better Than A “Free Clinic”

At each one of our Charlotte testing centers, we go out of our way to create a comfortable environment for our patients. You won’t have to wait in long lines or get stuck in overcrowded 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. Free STD testing services cannot offer the same level of discretion, speed, or accuracy, which is what sets our service apart from the rest.
