STD Testing

Sexually Transmitted Disease Testing

Currently more than 65 million Americans are living with an STD and an estimated 19 million are being added to that number every year.  Perhaps the most frightening statistic in this epidemic is that most of those infected have no symptoms.  This means that not only are there a large number of people who are unaware they have been infected; they may also unknowingly be infecting others.
 
PSC offers STD testing to any woman whose behavior has made her at risk for contracting a sexually transmitted disease.  The STD Clinic is open every Wednesday from 2:00 - 4:00 pm*. Walk-ins are welcome in the clinic, but please call to verify times or to set up an appointment
 
If you suspect you have an STD or if your sexual lifestyle has left you at risk for an STD, please call PSC at (330) 455-7500 to find out about our STD clinic.
