Why Should Sacramento Residents Get Tested?

According to a recent study by the California Department of Public Health, Sacramento County saw a 20 percent increase in chlamydia cases from 2017 to 2018 with 11,650 confirmed cases. If you extend the timeline to 2014, that figure represents a 50 percent increase. These totals make Sacramento County the fifth-highest California county in terms of chlamydia rates. Sacramento County also has the seventh-highest gonorrhea rate in the state and eleventh highest rate of primary and secondary syphilis. As STD rates continue to rise in Sacramento County and throughout the state and county, it is more important than ever that adults seek out reputable STD testing providers and get tested regularly.

Why Should Sacramento Residents Get Tested?

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.

We Are Better Than A “Free Clinic”

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.

Comprehensive Tests

In many cases, not all diseases are tested for in a physician’s office or public clinic. It is vital to know which tests are right for your specific circumstance. We provide a wide range of testing options for numerous diseases such as HIV, oral herpes (HSV1), genital herpes (HSV2), chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and trichomoniasis. As always, our care counselors are available to address any questions you may have regarding STD symptoms and also the tests we offer.

FAQs

What does the charge show up as on my bank statement?

Your privacy is our utmost concern. We understand the sensitive nature of testing, therefore our company name or anything related to STD testing will not be displayed on your statement. Our service shows up as a one time payment to “SFHT” and will not be identifiable to your order. If you prefer even more privacy, pre-paid gift cards can be used as well.

My antibody value is low. Should I get retested to see if my result will change?

If usually takes 10 to 18 days for antibodies to be detected in your blood. Because antibodies develop over time, it’s possible that your antibody levels can change depending on when you tested. However, this varies by individual. Talk with your healthcare provider or local health department about your results to see if retesting is advised.

Do I need an appointment after ordering?

No appointments are required at the collection facility after you have ordered your test. Your lab order is valid for 90 days and can be used immediately once your order has been placed. Typically your entire visit will take no more than 15-30 minutes.

Based on the results of my antibody test, do I need to continue social distancing and/or wearing a mask? Can I visit someone who is at risk for severe symptoms of the virus?

There is no test that can tell you when to stop social distancing or isolating. Be sure to check with your healthcare provider about next steps and continue to follow federal, state, and local government guidance regarding social distancing, and avoid visiting at-risk individuals like those above the age of 65 or with pre-existing medical conditions.
