STI Screenings and Sexual Health Services
At the office of Gwynn Patterson, M.D., FACOG, we offer private, respectful, and judgment-free STI screening and sexual health services for women of all ages. Whether you’re experiencing symptoms, starting a new relationship, or simply prioritizing your health, we’re here to support your wellbeing without stigma or shame.
Why STI Screenings Matter
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are more common than most people realize—and many can be present without symptoms. Early detection is key to protecting your health and preventing complications like infertility, chronic pelvic pain, and transmission to partners.
STI screenings are a vital part of routine preventive care, especially if:
- You are sexually active with new or multiple partners
- You are under 25 and sexually active
- You have a history of STIs
- You are pregnant or planning to become pregnant
- You or your partner has had another sexual partner
What We Screen For
Depending on your medical history, symptoms, and sexual activity, we may recommend testing for:
- Chlamydia
- Gonorrhea
- Trichomoniasis
- Syphilis
- HIV
- Hepatitis B and C
- Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
Testing is simple, fast, and discreet—often involving a urine sample, blood test, or swab. Results are delivered confidentially and followed up with care and education tailored to your needs.
Whole-Woman Care in a Supportive Setting
We know that STI testing can be stressful or even emotional. Our goal is to make you feel safe, heard, and empowered throughout the process. Dr. Patterson brings decades of experience as a board-certified OB/GYN and creates an atmosphere of trust grounded in respect and clinical excellence.
Take Control of Your Sexual Health
Sexual health is a core part of your overall wellness—and getting tested is a smart, responsible way to care for yourself and your future. Whether it’s a one-time screening or part of your annual wellness visit, we’re here when you need us.
