Carbon Health Urgent Care, Pasadena - 600 E Colorado Blvd
Service was great, but I can not get my results. When I clicked on the texted link, it took me to an app. I tried to download it, and it would not let me. I called the phone number as I was instructed to and no one answered. I sure would like my test results. If I cannot get them, I guess I’ll need to go somewhere else. I’m not happy.

Advanced Urgent Care of Pasadena, Next to Petco and Starbucks! - 797 S Arroyo Pkwy, Pasadena
I arrived 10 minutes before my appointment to ensure I had everything done prior to my appointment time. Even with that I still had about a 30–35-minute wait. Once inside the exam room things moved pretty quickly. Dr. Miguel listened to and addressed all my questions and concerns. Was in and out of the facility in a little over an hour. I would visit again if the need arised.

This my 1st time at this Urgent Care, and it will not be my last. My appt went very smooth, the receptionist was very welcoming, along with all the other girls, and the gentleman who took my chest x-rays. The doctor was very attentive and allowed me to explain my symptoms to her, and decided to do a couple tests to rule out pneumonia, also a streptococcus test, she's phenomenal literally. I Haven't been to an Urgent Care like this ever. I'm definitely returning. It's very clean. Lastly, I was actually seen at my appt time with no wait, which also won me Over. My visit was on 11/19/23 around 415pm, I think. Check-in was fast actually did everything online, which made everything much easier.

Getting Tested for STDs in Sierra Madre, CA

Who should get tested for STDs?

Anyone who is sexually active should consider regular STD testing, especially if they have multiple partners, are starting a new relationship, or are experiencing symptoms of an STD. This includes both men and women, regardless of sexual orientation. The CDC recommends that all adults and adolescents from ages 13 to 64 should be tested at least once for HIV. Regular testing for other STDs like chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis may also be recommended depending on your lifestyle and risk factors.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for STDs is an essential part of maintaining your overall health. Many STDs do not show symptoms, meaning you could be infected and not know it. Untreated STDs can lead to serious health complications, including infertility, cancer, and increased risk of HIV. Regular testing allows for early detection and treatment, reducing the risk of these complications. According to the CDC, regular testing also helps prevent the spread of STDs to others.

Std testing options in Sierra Madre, CA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

Urgent care and walk-in clinics are a convenient option for STD testing. These facilities often offer same-day appointments, making it easy to fit testing into your schedule. In Sierra Madre, you can book an appointment at nearby urgent care centers like Carbon Health in Pasadena and SmartClinic Urgent Care in West Covina through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Your primary care provider can also provide STD testing. If you have an established relationship with a provider, this can be a comfortable and familiar setting for your testing. However, appointment availability may vary.

Free STD testing and community health centers

For those without insurance or with financial constraints, free STD testing may be available at community health centers. While Sierra Madre does not have a community health center within the city, there are several in nearby Los Angeles County.

At-home testing

At-home STD testing kits are another option. These kits can be ordered online, used at home, and then sent to a lab for analysis. Results are typically available within a few days.

Prevalence of STDs in Sierra Madre

Sierra Madre is part of Los Angeles County, which has one of the highest STD rates in the country. According to the CDC, Los Angeles County reported over 60,000 cases of chlamydia, 20,000 cases of gonorrhea, and 4,000 cases of syphilis in 2018. While specific data for Sierra Madre is not available, the high rates in the county suggest that STDs are a significant health issue in the area.

Risk factors related to STDs in Sierra Madre

Risk factors for STDs in Sierra Madre are similar to those in other parts of the country. These include being sexually active, having multiple sexual partners, not using condoms consistently, and having a history of STDs. Other factors, such as substance abuse and lack of access to healthcare, may also increase risk. Given the high STD rates in Los Angeles County, residents of Sierra Madre should be proactive about getting tested and practicing safe sex.

STD Testing FAQs

  • Where should I get an STD test in Sierra Madre?

    In a doctor's office, a health clinic, or an urgent care center, you can get an STD test. If you're experiencing symptoms, it's best to visit a doctor's office, where they can also treat you or issue you a prescription. While some Sierra Madre clinics and urgent care centers allow walk-in appointments, it's advisable to make an appointment ahead of time to prevent excessive waits.

  • How long does it take to get STD test results?

    Various testing are required for various STDs. Depending on the type of STD test you took, you may receive your results in two to ten days. Some outcomes may be immediately available. Your doctor may be able to diagnose an STD through a physical examination. In some cases, your doctor's office may only contact you if your test results are positive.

  • How much does an STD test cost in Sierra Madre?

    The cost of STD testing is governed by several factors, including where you are tested, the type of test you need, and if you have health insurance. Some Sierra Madre clinics may offer free testing or testing on a sliding scale based on your income. Because of the cost, don't put off obtaining an STD test. With your doctor's office, discuss the cost and payment choices. Delaying STD treatment may have catastrophic implications.

  • Does insurance cover STD testing in Sierra Madre?

    The cost of STD testing is governed by a number of factors, including the location of the test, the type of test required, and whether or not you have health insurance. Some clinics may provide free or sliding-scale testing, depending on your income. Don't let the expense of an STD test deter you from getting one. With your doctor's office, discuss the price and payment choices. Delaying STD treatment could have catastrophic ramifications.

  • How do they test for STDs in Sierra Madre?

    There are around 20 different forms of STDs, each with its own set of diagnostic tests. No single test exists that can detect all types of STDs. Your doctor can help you figure out which tests you'll need. In STD testing, a blood sample or a urine sample may be used. Your doctor may also take a swab from the inside of your cheek, your vaginal area, or another potentially infected place.

  • What STDs can be detected by a blood test?

    Blood tests are used to diagnose hepatitis B, hepatitis C, herpes, HIV, and syphilis. In a laboratory, a technician examines a blood sample for antibodies that the body has produced in reaction to disease. The virus's DNA can also be detected by several blood tests. Remember that if you've recently been exposed to an STD and your body hasn't yet produced antibodies, you could test negative even if you have the disease.

  • Can I get a same-day appointment for STD testing in Sierra Madre?

    Many Sierra Madre, CA urgent care providers offer same-day and next-day appointments, which you may book through Solv. To make healthcare more accessible to everyone, we collaborate with thousands of top-rated local providers. Our physician partners understand that waiting days, if not weeks, for an appointment isn't always the best option, and they share our commitment to simple, accessible health care.

  • How can I book an STD test on Solv?

    To find a healthcare practitioner in your area, simply enter your location and search for "STD test" on our website. A list of providers and available appointments can be found on the following page. Choose the most convenient time and location for you. Make it clear that you've come for STD testing.

  • How long does an STD test take in Sierra Madre?

    If you have a specific STD, inform your doctor so that the necessary test can be scheduled. Otherwise, they'll help you figure out which tests you'll need. The nurse or doctor simply needs a few minutes to get a blood sample, a urine sample, or a swab from the probable infection site.

  • Can I test myself for STDs at home?

    Although there are several STD home tests available, not all of them are accurate. The accuracy of any STD test is determined by the quality of the sample taken. For home STD kits, a blood sample, a urine sample, or both are frequently required. Because doctors and nurses have more experience collecting samples, traditional in-office STD testing is the most accurate.
