Why Choose Priority STD Testing in Palm Harbor, FL

Same Day Testing

At Priority STD Testing, you won’t need to make appointments weeks in advance simply to get tested. We provide same day testing, and our entire process is easy and convenient. The procedure only takes a few minutes, and almost all patients are done and back to their day in under a half hour. And, start to finish, your personal information is kept discreet and secure.

Completely Confidential

We understand the need for personal privacy when it comes to your sexual wellness. Our service is HIPAA compliant, and absolutely nothing at all will be mailed to your residence or disclosed to your health insurance provider. We will never call you directly without prior consent, and your personal privacy is respected every single step of the way. Our business name or anything related to STD testing will not appear on your bank or credit billing statements after your test has been ordered.

Discreet Locations

Public centers or health divisions supplying free STD testing provide little privacy when it involves your sexual health and wellness. Going to your physician can be awkward and even raise questions regarding the reason for your visit by others. Our discreet collection centers are nondescript, meaning you will never be singled out for getting an STD test. No other patients will know the reason for your visit other than to provide a routine blood and urine sample.

Treatment Options

Our care counselors are readily available to discuss treatment alternatives for patients testing positive for gonorrhea, chlamydia or trichomoniasis. We’ll work with you to set up a phone consult with one of our physicians to authorize the right treatment. Office visits are not necessary. Appropriate medications are readily available, in most cases, the same day and can be picked up at your local pharmacy.

Comprehensive Tests

It is essential to understand which tests are right for your circumstance. Oftentimes, just a few are provided at your local public medical clinic or physician’s office. Priority STD Testing offers a variety of testing choices for numerous diseases consisting of, but not limited to, HIV, oral herpes (HSV1), genital herpes (HSV2), chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and trichomoniasis.

FAQs

How do I know what type of test I should take?

If at any point you need assistance, call us at 1-888-211-2365 and one of our care counselors will assist you with any questions you may have regarding your testing options. We offer both customized tests and comprehensive panels to fit your testing needs.

My results are negative but I still have symptoms. What should I do?

If your results come back negative, but you are still experiencing symptoms, you should see a doctor or call our care counselors. With the help of a health care physician, the underlying cause of such symptoms can be discovered and proper treatment can be established.

Do I need to fast before getting tested?

No fasting is required for any type of test we offer. If you are testing for chlamydia, gonorrhea, or trichomoniasis, please ensure that you have not urinated for at least one hour prior to visiting the testing center.

My partner is positive, but I tested negative. How is this possible?

It is possible that couples testing can result in one partner receiving a positive result and the other a negative result. This can be due to low exposure to the STD/STI or the incubation period unique to each. The incubation period is the time frame between exposure and symptoms when the bacteria or virus is undetectable by lab tests. Due to this, it is important to be mindful of the incubation period of the particular illness which you are testing for and when to schedule your test. This will achieve the most accurate results. Men and women also have different levels of risk for transmission--depending on the illness. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), women are more at risk for contracting an STD in general. This is due to the thinner membrane and moist environment of the vagina, making it easier to breed infection. Meanwhile, the penis does not have such delicate membranes. However, over 80% of all the newly reported HIV cases within the US in 2017 were among men. This statistic is even higher for HIV cases that were transmitted via male-to-male sexual contact. For this reason, keeping the risks for your demographic in mind is a great way to remain proactive about sexual health. Some physicians may prescribe the medication for the ailment, despite negative test results. They may also recommend later testing to avoid the incubation period. This is especially true for infections such as chlamydia or gonorrhea that are easily treated but have serious consequences if ignored. For example, chlamydia and gonorrhea are the most common root-causes of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID can cause multiple complications including infertility and chronic pelvic pain.
