The topic of STD testing has not come up on the board in a while. Since it had been a while since I last got tested, I did again a week ago.

STD testing is everyone's responsibility. Do yourself and everyone else who provides and hobbies a favor, check when the last time was that you were checked. If it's time, get tested again.

Red Door is a Hennepin County operation, and is completely anonymous if you want it to be.  It is even operated on a donation basis.  You can give them any name and any made up social security number and they don't verify it.  Just be sure you know what info you fill out, as you will need to verify it later in the visit for your results.  You can also pay cash, for the donation you should give them.  I always give them around $75.   Here is the link:  http://www.reddoorclinic.org/

confidential, no-hassle

I found the red door clinic to be very helpful, took the time to be complete, and very confidential.

Where is the best place to get tested if you don't want to go thru your local Dr office?  Might raise to many questions if I was to go there.

It uses a lab in Edina and you are generally in and out in 15 min, except on Monday mornings when there are too many walk-ins.  

You order and pay for it online.  The lab test is then pre-paid and you get a confidential email a few days later.  I think the full panel is still around 200.  The run discount specials all the time.  

Very confidential.

That is what I do.  I just go in a 3 months and get a check up.
