Public Health Sexual Health Clinic at Harborview
- Address: 908 Jefferson St, 11th floor, Seattle, WA 98104 (First Hill)
- Hours: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Tuesday 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
- Walk-ins reduced: the county says staffing shortages mean fewer walk-ins than usual and recommends booking ahead online or at 206-744-3590. Walk-ins should arrive by 4 p.m.; after 3:30, call to check the clinic is still accepting patients.
- Services: confidential STD and HIV evaluation, testing, and treatment, PrEP (now also walk-in; PrEP line 206-744-3954), and walk-in hepatitis A and B, HPV, and mpox vaccines
- Cost: sliding-fee scale
Rapid HIV results are available during the visit; lab results take several days. Snohomish County and Kitsap County residents have their own county health district options.
Urgent care in Seattle
Urgent care centers on Capitol Hill, in South Lake Union, Ballard, and across the Eastside offer STD testing with an exam. Without insurance, plan on a visit fee of $150 or more plus lab charges, with results in 2 to 5 days.
Washington notes
- Minors aged 14 and older can consent to their own STD testing and treatment in Washington.
- Expedited partner therapy is permitted in Washington for chlamydia and gonorrhea.
- Tech employers: many Eastside and Seattle employers self-insure, so an insurance claim is visible to the plan administrator. A private walk-in lab keeps testing off the claims file entirely.
When to test
Chlamydia and gonorrhea at 2 weeks after exposure, HIV and syphilis at 6 weeks, herpes antibody at 12 weeks. With symptoms, test now and retest after the window.
Which tests to order
The 10-test panel ($139) covers the common infections in one visit. After one known exposure, chlamydia and gonorrhea together ($99) at two weeks and HIV plus syphilis ($49 each) at six weeks is a reasonable minimum.
Testing with a partner in Seattle
A lot of people get tested as a couple, at the start of a relationship or before stopping condoms. It works the same way as testing alone, just twice: each of you places your own order, so each of you gets your own private results, then you can walk into the same lab together and be done in about ten minutes.
- Same tests, same day. Ordering the same panel for both of you keeps the results easy to compare. The 10-test panel is the usual choice; add trichomoniasis if you have vaginal sex.
- Results are individual. Neither of you can see the other's results unless you share them, which is worth agreeing on before you test.
- If one of you tests positive, treat both of you at the same time for chlamydia, gonorrhea, or trichomoniasis, even if the other person tested negative, or the infection passes back and forth. Retest in 3 months.
- A positive result is not proof of recent cheating. Chlamydia, trichomoniasis, herpes, and HPV can go unnoticed for months or years.
