The Process

Step-by-Step Service Flow

Step
1

Reserve Your Visit

Book a few clicks online, or ring the office if you’d rather speak with someone directly.

Step
2

Discuss Your Concerns

In the office or over video, your Illinois-licensed provider asks about symptoms, roughly when exposure may have occurred, and anything relevant from your history.

Step
3

Choose the Right Test

Based on timing and symptoms, your provider decides whether urine, blood, a swab, or a more thorough look makes sense.

Step
4

Get Ongoing Guidance

Once results are ready, our team explains what they mean, covers treatment if it’s needed, and helps with partner notification when relevant.

How Do I Know When to Get Tested?

It depends on a mix of things the infection you’re concerned about, how long it’s been since possible exposure, and whatever symptoms you’re noticing, if any. Some infections can be caught almost immediately; others take longer before results are reliable. Your provider will typically ask about your exposure window, current symptoms, prior testing, pregnancy status, and whether a partner has tested positive. Depending on your situation, testing might mean a urine sample, bloodwork, a swab, or coming back for a follow-up test. At our Lansing office, your plan follows your actual circumstances, not a fixed routine.

Questions Worth Bringing to Your Provider

  • Which tests are relevant to my case?
  • How long should I wait before testing?
  • What kind of sample gets collected?
  • What are my results actually telling me?
  • Is a retest something to consider?
  • What symptoms mean I shouldn’t delay?

Your visit shouldn’t feel like a checklist your provider works from your exposure history and symptoms. That includes staying involved after results come in, covering treatment, prevention, and partner conversations if needed.

Could STI and STD Testing Be the Right Move for You?

Our STI and STD Testing Services Include

General STI Screening

Many infections don’t show obvious signs, which is why a screening based on your history and risk factors can catch what might otherwise slip by.

Chlamydia & Gonorrhea Screening

Usually just a urine sample or swab, with your provider choosing the method based on your sexual history.

HIV Screening

Whether it’s part of standard care or prompted by a specific exposure, your provider explains timing, results, and what comes next.

Syphilis Screening

One blood test covers it, with recommendations shaped by your symptoms, pregnancy status, and exposure background.

Symptom-Based Testing

Discharge, sores, pelvic discomfort, burning, or irritation are all worth addressing through testing or a closer exam.

Results, Treatment & Continued Care

Depending on what’s found, next steps might mean starting treatment, confirming with a retest, prevention guidance, or help with partner notification.

Common Reasons People Schedule STI Testing

The Most Question We Got so Far

How soon after sex should I get tested for STDs?

Still have questions? Reach out we’re just a message away.

Can an STI be present without any symptoms?

Yes, and it’s fairly common. Many infections cause no noticeable signs, which is why testing decisions rely on age, sexual history, and exposure risk rather than symptoms alone.

Partially. Consultations and reviewing results can often be done virtually, though most sample collections still require an in-person visit.

Your provider explains what it means, walks through treatment options, and helps coordinate next steps, including partner notification if it applies.
