STD Testing Options

STD Testing Options

We offer a wide variety of STD Testing to best meet your specific situation.  All of the following STD Tests are offered individually or within a panel designed for your particular needs.

HIV Testing
HIV-1/HIV-2(Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 & 2) Antibody Screen with Western Blot Confirmation

If your exposure was over three months ago, this particular test will look for the antibodies that are produced by your body’s immune system in response to the virus.

HIV PCR by DNA

For those people who’s exposure has been more recent, this highly advanced test can detect minute traces of the virus’s DNA in your system as early as 72 hours from exposure.

Syphilis Testing
RPR (Rapid Plasma Reagin) For Syphilis

The RPR test is the most common syphilis test performed and is done so with a blood specimen. If the RPR test comes back positive a confirmatory test (fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption or FTA-ABS test) will be performed at no additional charge.

Chlamydia Testing
Chlamydia Urine Test

This test is performed with a simple urine specimen. Using nucleic acid amplification to detect the presence of the bacterium, this test has been proven to be much more effective than a swab test, and much less painful.

Gonorrhea Testing
Gonorrhea Urine Test

As with the Chlamydia test, this test is also performed with a simple urine specimen. Using nucleic acid amplification to detect the presence of the bacterium, this test has been proven to be much more effective than a swab test, and much less painful.

Hepatitis Testing
Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Test

This is the most frequently and easily performed test for hepatitis B and is the first test to show abnormal results. HBsAg generally indicates active hepatitis B virus infection.

Hepatitis B Surface Antibody Test

This antibody appears approximately 4 weeks after the disappearance of the surface antigen and signifies the end of the acute infection phase. HBsAb also signifies immunity to subsequent infections.

Hepatitis C Core Antibody Test

This antibody appears approximately 1 month after infection with HBsAg and declines over several years. HBcAb is also present in people with chronic hepatitis.

CBC
Complete Blood Count (CBC) With Differential Test

The CBC and Differential test provide a snapshot of your body’s immune system and can provide invaluable information that might indicate a possible infection. White blood cell counts, red blood cell counts, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelet counts are just a few of the indicators included in this series.

Urinalysis
Urinalysis Testing

Total Urinary Analysis (UA) involves several routine tests on a urine specimen. Most bacterial infections can be identified using this test, even if the infection is not necessarily an STD.
