STD Testing & Treatment at AFC Joplin

What STDs Do We Test For?

• At AFC Urgent Care, we test for a variety of STDs, providing thorough and accurate results so that you can take the appropriate steps for treatment or prevention. Our experienced medical staff understands the importance of comprehensive care, and we strive to offer the most advanced testing options available.  Comprehensive screening for the most common STDs including:
• Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Trichomonas, Bacterial Vaginosis, Syphilis, HIV, Genital Warts and Herpes Testing

When it comes to STD testing, early detection is key. Many sexually transmitted infections don’t cause visible symptoms in their early stages, making it difficult for individuals to recognize they have contracted something harmful. Left untreated, some STDs can lead to severe health issues, including infertility, chronic pain, or even an increased risk of HIV. At AFC Urgent Care, we prioritize making STD testing as easy, convenient, and thorough as possible, allowing you to stay on top of your health and receive the treatment you may need without delay.

We’re always exploring new technologies to expand our range of tests and provide an even higher level of healthcare for our patients. By offering a wide range of STD testing, we help ensure that our patients are fully informed about their sexual and can make educated decisions about their care.
