We provide free sexual health services through Magnet, our sexual health clinic in the Castro, and at sites across San Francisco. Where can I get tested?
HIV and STI testing and treatment, linkage to care, and other sexual health services are provided by our sexual health clinic program Magnet. For community members who have a relationship with substances, drop-in testing and clinical services are also provided at the 6th Street Center. We cover the costs of our services through donations from the public, support from SFDPH, and government and grant funding. Each of our sites has slight variations in testing flow.
No matter which location you choose, you will be cared for by certified sexual health educators and expert medical personnel. At registration, we ask you to fill out a form with basic information including name, date of birth and contact information.
After you are registered for your appointment, you will be given a tablet to complete our intake survey. The intake helps us to learn more about you and your health concerns.
All the information is optional. This intake survey allows us to tailor your counseling session to your specific needs. After your blood sample is collected, you will have the option of completing a counseling session with one of our test counselors.
