Many cities big enough to have a Health Dept (e.g., New York, but many smaller cities, too), sometimes offer testing through their clinics. In a big city, there are many small clinics so you can go out of your neighborhood. Smaller cities, I don't know. I guess it could be embarrassing to go to the clinic and see your neighbor at the receptionist's desk:
"Hi, what are you doing here?""Uh, ... wrong door ... I was aiming for the MiniMart next door to buy a magazine."
"How did you get up here to the third floor?"
"Uh, I thought, maybe, their high class magazines were on an upper level." Of course, you might take a different approach: "Hi, what are you doing here?"
"I've been bangin' your daughter and I'm a little concerned about her rash so I'm here for a test.
Last time I wen to my family doctor, he ordered only two blood test. He said if you don't have symptoms then you don't have
to. But I remember someone mentioned places for parenting or gays that can do a whole set of test. What are they? Thanks.
By the way, how often you do the test ? And how often you hobby ? Thanks for your input. It will help me to make a schedule. Thanks.
I usually use cuttingedgetesting.com (it's local to me). A good source for finding a place near you is porn stars, they know places that are cheap, easy, efficient and they aren't at all surprised as to why you are there.
Lately I see 2-3 girls a month. One very regular, one semi regular and the last is whatever whim strikes me. I'm aware that the two I see most regularly also get tested (have seen results), otherwise I'd probably go monthly.
.....quarterly. I used to go every other month, but many std's stay dormant for quite some time, and my ob/gyn told me that every three months is just fine.

Is your OB/gyn aware of your profession?

...for many reason, but he knows that I am not in a monogamous relationship.

I just used STD Express.com.. Local lab.. results in 3 days.. soemthing like tests for 8 different things.. Not cheap.. $295... not bad for piece of mind.. I had nothing.. never had symptoms.. but not a bad thing to do every once in a while
Any one has compared planned parenthood with other provider ?
std.about.com Plug your zip code in and it will give you a list of available facilities. Private pay, insurance or slide scale fee for service type.
I looked around on that website but could not find the zip code lookup you are referring to. Do you have a URL that goes right to the page?

Your GP/ob-gym should always have a reason to be compelled to perform full panel test. Yes, health care providers may judge for the truth behind this industry. He or she should know that non-monogamy is a main factor. If you want to deflect from yourself, you can say that your significant other is not monogamous with you.
