All STD test results are available within 7 business days.
The clinic operates from the Shapiro Building on Albany Street, placing it within the wider Boston Medical Center campus in the South End. Being located inside a larger academic medical center means patients benefit from on-site laboratory services, pharmacy support, and access to additional medical specialties when needed. The setting is designed to feel welcoming and accessible, and the surrounding medical campus offers familiar landmarks, transit connections, and parking options for those traveling across the city.
Standard clinic hours run Monday through Friday with extended availability on Wednesdays, and separate walk-in hours are published for anyone who wants rapid screening without scheduling. Test results are generally available within a set number of business days, so patients can plan follow-up conversations accordingly. Because appointment slots can be limited during busy periods, the clinic encourages calling ahead when a visit is needed for diagnosing and treating a specific concern.
The clinic provides screening and treatment for a broad range of sexually transmitted infections, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, and hepatitis, along with prevention services such as pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis, vaccines, and partner notification support when someone tests positive. Confidential consultations, symptom assessment, and referral to specialty providers or established treatment regimens are all part of the clinical approach, delivered by nurses, physicians, and trained clinical staff.
Reaching the clinic is straightforward, whether you prefer to make a phone call, send an email, or simply walk in for testing. The team answers questions about appointments, insurance, and the screening process, and every inquiry is handled confidentially. If you have been exposed to a possible infection or are experiencing symptoms such as discharge, soreness, or unusual fatigue, contacting the clinic early allows providers to review your history and arrange the right visit without delay.
