Test for STI, HIV and hep C

Español

Hands holding two red ribbons

It is common to have a STI and have no symptom at all, so the only way to know your status is to get tested. 

The good news is that getting tested for STIs is one of the most important things you could do for your health, and our process is fast and easy at the Crane Center. 

  • Many STIs like gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis are treatable and can be cured, but if left untreated, these infections can cause serious health problems.
  • Young people in Santa Clara County and nationwide are affected by STIs surprisingly more than you would expect.
