At the beginning of 2018, close to 3000 people were living with HIV in Middlesex county, a rate the Department of Health considers to be epidemic. Although the number of new HIV cases each year has remained fairly steady, the fatality rate has dropped dramatically in Middlesex county from 92% in 1990 to less than 5% in 2017. This decline can be attributed to early diagnosis and ongoing treatment with medication.
The COO of the South Jersey AIDS Alliance believes diagnosis and treatment with medication is essential to lowering the number of, or even eliminating, new transmissions.
The Middlesex County Public Health Clinic, located on Jersey Avenue, New Brunswick, provides a range of services including testing, counselling and referral for HIV. All testing is confidential and the staff are sensitive and friendly, however the testing is subject to a fee.
You might also try Planned Parenthood on Industrial Drive, New Brunswick, for knowledgeable and dedicated service. The staff can provide extensive information about sexual health, language interpretation services and perform STD testing anonymously and confidentially depending on your needs. Once again, there is a fee for testing, although insurance may cover some services so you should take it with you if applicable.
Another option is the Dr William Toth Memorial Health Center located on Idlewild Road, Edison – approximately 20 minutes drive from New Brunswick. The Sexual Health Clinic runs on alternate Monday evenings and generally does not require an appointment. Specific HIV testing takes place separately and does require pre-booking.
It is worth contacting individual clinics to find out whether any provide free STD testing to eligible patients, however these programs often have long lines and may keep inconsistent or inconvenient hours.
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.
The cost of STD testing depends on whether you select private, public, or at-home testing, as well as the type of test(s) you need.
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.
