South Tampa Immediate Care Offers STD Testing on Saturday to Accommodate Your Busy Schedule
At South Tampa Immediate Care, we know that life can be hectic, and we want to make it as easy as possible for our patients to make time for their health without having to completely rearrange their schedules. That’s one reason why we offer STD testing on Saturday – in addition to a full range of other non-emergency health care services – at our office in Tampa, Florida.
Of course, some diagnostic centers charge a higher rate for weekend visits. However, at South Tampa Immediate Care, there is no additional cost or fee to receive STD testing on Saturday.
The STD testing process at South Tampa Immediate Care
In a comfortable and confidential setting, you can talk candidly with one of our experienced medical professionals, who will answer your questions and help you determine which STD tests are most appropriate for you (no single test can check for all STDs). From there, we can administer your test(s) on site, so you won’t have to travel to multiple testing centers or coordinate with several providers. Your visit, which may include a simple blood or urine test, will likely take approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
Depending on which test(s) you receive, your results may be available within a few minutes to a few weeks. We’ll contact you as soon as this information becomes available. If you test positive for an STD, we can explain your next steps and help you begin treatment, if necessary.
If you’re sexually active, getting tested for STDs is essential to protect your overall health, and even more so if you are a teenager or young adult (studies show that STD rates are highest among this age group). What many people don’t realize is that they’re not limited to specialty clinics for STD testing – in fact, you can just walk into our office for STD testing.
Stop by South Tampa Immediate Care for STD and HIV testing on Saturday – or any other day that suits your schedule. Our office at 602 South Howard Avenue in Tampa, FL, is open seven days a week, and no appointments are necessary.
