STD Exams and Vaccinations: Some people get a set time to come in. Some do not. We’ll ask you what’s going on and get you the kind of visit that works best. Call 503-988-3700 to make an appointment.

What if I am under 18 years old?

In Oregon teens can consent to HIV and STD testing and treatment without a parent’s permission.

Do I need to give my name?

You can get an HIV test anonymously at one of our community test sites. We need a name for all other tests. If you make up a name, you’ll have to be sure you remember that name when you come for results. We are very careful to protect your privacy and confidentiality here.
