LA County Sexual Health Clinic
I just wanted to take a moment and share my recent experience using the services of the LA County sexual health clinic.
First, I’ve never went to anything like this, but my experience was wonderful, actually, probably better than I’ve had with regular doctors and medical facilities.
I had a small scare with an STD, wasn’t sure what to do, after some research, decided why not try the County Health clinic.
First, there services are free. If you have insurance, they bill the insurance but you don’t need to make any co-pays. And in my visit they had the medication I needed there.
It was so nice being able to talk through my issues with someone who was an expert in the field, what they’ve seen and experienced. Really took me off the edge and made me stop endlessly googling stuff. In a non judgmental environment, especially as a gay man.
They’ve got it all too, prep, doxy, pep and vaccines.
Online services can be more convenient, however, the low to zero cost and care I received was so much better than I had expected.
I get it, sexual health can be embarrassing and hard to talk about, but, I encourage anyone looking for these services to reach out to them.
Special thank you to the staff at the center I had my visit it, very wonderful and kind staff, thank you!
