According to 2015 data chlamydia is one of the most commonly reported STDs in Riverside County where Coachella, CA is located with females aged 20 to 24 most affected. However, the incidence of gonorrhea has increased as well, doubling since 2010, as has the rate of syphilis cases, rising almost 50%.
In 2016, the Riverside University Health System reported that the rate of Syphilis in Coachella Valley was, in fact, rising to a significant degree, reaching rates of 192.3 per 100,000 of the population, a great degree higher than the national rate of 7.5 per 100,000.
“The data and its trajectory are troubling. Sores from syphilis heighten the risk of spreading HIV. We also know that HIV can exacerbate the pace at which syphilis progresses – a disease which can cause permanent physical damage.”
There are several places you can go for STD testing, such as a Planned Parenthood in Coachella, CA and a series of mobile clinics as part of a health program offering HIV and STD testing by the Desert AIDS project. There is also a dedicated HIV and STD testing clinic called The Dock in Palm Springs.
You can also get tested at a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) like Clinicas de Salud del Pueblo, based at the Coachella Medical Clinic on Harrison Street or Borrego Health at Centro Medico Coachella on Van Buren Street.
Free HIV testing, free STD testing and low-cost testing may be on offer at clinics in the area but doctor consultation might be an extra charge.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.

Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
