- STD / STI Infection Screening
Private Screening, Clear Information, Respectful Care
This page should make screening feel normal, confidential, and easy to discuss. La Familia Health Clinic PLLC can provide STD / STI screening based on the patient’s concerns, symptoms, exposure history, and the tests available through the clinic.
The copy should avoid suggesting that one test checks for every infection. Instead, it should explain that the provider chooses the appropriate test or combination of tests for the individual visit.
