How are sexually transmitted disease results handled?
If you were tested for sexually transmitted diseases (STD’s), you will have to come to the office to get the results in person. This is to protect your privacy. This also makes sure that no one else gets the results without your permission. The only exception is for minors. For children under the age of 18, parents are notified to come in for the results. Being asked to come in for results does not mean that any of the tests are positive, so please don’t worry if you get a call or letter asking you to come to the office.
