Situated in the fertile San Tan Valley, Queen City is a town that rests in both Maricopa and Pinal Counties. Their rapidly growing population is experiencing an upswing in the prevalence rates for STDs and HIV.
In fact, during the period from 2014 to 2018, Queen City and the surrounding Maricopa County realized a 16.5% rise in its STD prevalence rate and a 6.3% increase in that of HIV. Moreover, the first half of 2019 demonstrated a 6% increase in the STD prevalence rate over that of 2018.
Queen City has experienced a population boom that has brought with it rising rates of STD transmission. Education is the best defense against the spread of these diseases and we need to inform our community immediately to avoid a health crisis.
For those residents of Queen Creek who wish to be tested for STDs and/or HIV, there are a number of possible sources from which to choose. The following health centers and clinics may offer these tests.
Pinal County Public Health Services provides the community with the San Tan Valley Clinic in Queen City. Also, CVS MinuteClinic within the CVS pharmacy on East Ocotillo Road may provide these tests.
Planned Parenthood provides locations in Mesa and Tempe; 13 and 18 miles northwest of Queen City respectfully. Furthermore, One Medical on East Williams Field Road in Gilbert might provide STD and HIV screenings.
Often, clinics will advertise free STD testing. Keep in mind that while these tests may be free, they might not be comprehensive or available for all STDs. Moreover, these tests may not offer free doctor consultation.
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.
