- sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and treatment
- assessment and treatment of genital rashes, sores, bumps
- free condoms

All of our services are confidential.
How long does it take to get my STI test results?
Most STI test results take about a week to come back. We will contact you only if the results are positive.
What happens if I test positive for an STI?
A public health nurse will follow up with you and discuss diagnosis, treatment, and management options. We can help you notify your partner(s) so they can be tested and treated to prevent any further spread of infection.
