12-marker panel · treated the same dayCLIA #45D2048957 · CAP #8722734 · Same-day results · Walk-ins welcome
Here is the part nobody else offers. Most places test you and send you home to wait. Your result arrives days later by email, you call a clinic, you book an appointment, you take a second afternoon off work. Somewhere in that gap, a lot of people simply disappear — and the infection does not.
We run the panel in-house on high-complexity molecular PCR. Give us a sample by 1:00 PM and your results are ready at 4:30 PM. If you are positive, a licensed physician sees you between 4:30 and 6:00 PM the same day. You came in with a question. Before the day is over you have an answer — and, if you need it, treatment.
Walk in. No appointment. No insurance. Save up to 40% compared to urgent care.

What the 12-marker panel covers
| Sample | What we test for |
|---|---|
| Urine or swab (10 pathogens) | Chlamydia · Gonorrhea · Syphilis · Trichomonas · HSV-1 · HSV-2 · Mycoplasma genitalium · Mycoplasma hominis · Ureaplasma urealyticum & parvum · Gardnerella vaginalis |
| Blood | HIV-1 & HIV-2 antibody · HIV-1 p24 antigen (4th generation) |

The one thing most people get wrong
A urine test cannot rule out a throat or rectal infection. If your exposure was oral or anal and we only test urine, those sites were never tested at all — and pharyngeal gonorrhea is frequently silent. CDC notes that NAAT is validated for pharyngeal and rectal specimens. Tell us how you were exposed and we will collect the right sites. Which site to swab →
Why molecular, not rapid
| Rapid antigen/antibody test | Molecular PCR (what we run) | |
|---|---|---|
| What it finds | A protein marker — indirect evidence | The pathogen's own genetic sequence |
| Early / low-load infection | Frequently missed | Far more sensitive |
| Asymptomatic infection | Often missed | Detected |
| CDC position | — | NAAT is the preferred method for chlamydia and gonorrhea |
Why the numbers matter. CDC reports more than 2.2 million combined cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis a year in the U.S. Congenital syphilis has climbed roughly 700% over the past decade — and much of that was preventable with timely testing and treatment. Delay is the disease's best friend.
Go to an ER, not to us, if: you have severe pelvic pain with fever (possible PID), sudden severe testicular pain and swelling, fever with rash and joint pain, vision or hearing changes, a severe headache with a stiff neck, or you are pregnant and think you have an STI.
What happens if you are positive
You see a licensed physician the same day. What they prescribe depends on your result — the organism, your symptoms, allergies, pregnancy status and history. We do not publish dosages, because a dosage is a prescription and a prescription requires a physician. What we do publish is the framework the physician works from: the CDC treatment pathways →
FAQ
- How fast are STD results?
- Sample by 1:00 PM and your results are ready the same day at 4:30 PM. STAT results in 2 hours if we collect by 3:00 PM.
- Can I be treated the same day?
- Yes. If you are positive, a licensed physician in our partner network sees you between 4:30 and 6:00 PM that same day — the slot is held for you.
- Do I need an appointment or insurance?
- No to both. Walk in any weekday, 9 to 5. Texting us first just lets us prepare the right panel and collection sites.
- Is a urine test enough?
- Not if your exposure was oral or anal. A urine-only test cannot rule out pharyngeal or rectal infection — we collect throat and rectal swabs when they are indicated.
- What does the panel cover?
- Chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, trichomonas, HSV-1, HSV-2, M. genitalium, M. hominis, Ureaplasma (both species), Gardnerella, plus HIV antibody and p24 antigen.
- Is it confidential?
- Yes. Testing and treatment are private and handled under HIPAA and applicable Texas law. No referral, no appointment.
- How much does it cost?
- Save up to 40% compared to a typical urgent-care visit, with no facility fee, and no insurance required.
