STD Testing

No symptoms does not always mean no STD

Many STDs can have mild symptoms or no symptoms at all. Testing can help you get clear information so you know your next steps.

  • Chlamydia and Gonorrhea testing: $150
  • Includes an HIV test at no additional cost.
  • Most results are available the same day, typically within 30 mins.

  • Appointments include time to review your results, answer your questions, and discuss next steps.

  • Additional follow-up with a medical provider may be recommended, based on your results.

Getting tested is part of routine healthcare.

Sexual Health FAQs

Do I need an appointment?

Walk-ins are welcome during testing hours, but you’re welcome to schedule ahead if you prefer.

Do I need symptoms to get tested?

No. Many people ask about testing after a possible exposure, before starting PrEP, before a new relationship, or as part of routine sexual health care. An infection could be present without any symptoms; this is why it’s best to test.

What is a Baseline Test?

Think of a baseline screening as your sexual health’s annual physical routine. It is a simple way to check in on your sexual health. It’s a good idea before becoming intimate with a new partner or when returning to sexual activity after a break, so you can move forward with greater peace of mind.

How much does testing cost?

Chlamydia and Gonorrhea testing is $150 and includes HIV testing at no additional cost.

How long does testing take?

Most visits take 20–30 minutes, including your results and time to ask questions.

How much does HIV testing cost by itself?

HIV testing through Orenda Health & Wellness is free and confidential.

What is the difference between PrEP and PEP?

PrEP is ongoing HIV prevention for people who are HIV negative. PEP is medication that can help prevent HIV after a possible exposure if started within 72 hours.

Is my visit private?

Yes. Sexual health visits, testing, and prevention conversations are handled as private health information under HIPAA.

You can start here.

Testing, symptoms, prevention questions, hormone concerns, and sexual health education can all be part of the conversation. Orenda can help you understand what makes sense next.
