UTI & STD Testing
Fast Lab Results When You Need Them
Walk-in UTI and STD testing available now at Family First Urgent Care.
When you notice burning during urination, unusual discharge, or pelvic discomfort, waiting days for an appointment only makes things worse. Family First Urgent Care offers same-day testing for urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases, giving you accurate lab results without the delays that come with traditional scheduling.
You can walk in during business hours and provide a urine sample or undergo a swab test depending on your symptoms. Testing identifies bacterial infections like chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis, as well as UTIs caused by E. coli and other common bacteria. Results are typically available within one to three days, and our team contacts you with next steps including prescription treatment if needed.
If you are dealing with symptoms right now and want testing completed today, stop by Family First Urgent Care for lab work that moves at your pace.
What Happens During Your Testing Visit
When you arrive, you explain your symptoms to a medical provider who determines which tests are appropriate based on what you are experiencing. For UTI testing, you provide a clean-catch urine sample that gets analyzed for bacteria, white blood cells, and other infection markers. For STD testing, you may provide a urine sample, blood draw, or swab depending on the specific infection being tested.
Once testing is complete, you leave the clinic and wait for results to be processed by the lab. If your test confirms an infection, you receive a call with treatment options and a prescription sent directly to your pharmacy. You will notice relief from burning and urgency within one to two days of starting antibiotics for a UTI, while STD treatments vary in duration depending on the infection type.
Testing does not include full sexual health panels or partner notification services, but it does give you the diagnosis you need to begin treatment immediately. Results are kept confidential and only shared with you directly unless you request otherwise.
Questions people ask before coming in
These are the most common questions we hear from patients scheduling lab work for infections that need quick attention.
What symptoms mean I should get tested?
You should come in if you have burning during urination, frequent urges to urinate, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, pelvic pain, unusual discharge, sores, or itching in the genital area. These symptoms often indicate a UTI or STD that needs lab confirmation.
How long does it take to get my results?
Most urine culture results for UTIs are available within 24 to 48 hours. STD test results typically take one to three days depending on the specific test ordered. You will receive a phone call once results are ready.
What types of STD tests are available?
We test for chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, syphilis, HIV, and herpes depending on your symptoms and exposure history. Testing methods include urine samples, blood draws, and swab tests.
Why should I get tested at urgent care instead of waiting for my doctor?
Urgent care allows you to walk in the same day without an appointment, so you avoid waiting through a week of discomfort while an infection worsens. Early treatment also reduces the risk of complications like kidney infection or pelvic inflammatory disease.
Will I get treatment the same day?
You receive treatment once lab results confirm an infection. If your provider strongly suspects a UTI based on symptoms, they may prescribe antibiotics the same day while waiting for culture results to finalize.
If you are dealing with symptoms that are affecting your daily routine or causing concern, Family First Urgent Care can run the lab work you need and connect you with treatment as soon as results come back.
