Whether you are sexually active or simply prioritizing your health, we are here to help you stay protected and informed.
What Counts as STI Prevention?
STI prevention in San Antonio is not just about condoms or routine tests. It is a series of preventive measures designed to lower your risk and protect your partners. Also, you will be able to catch issues early.

How Do We Help You with STI Prevention in San Antonio?
1. How do we diagnose and evaluate your health?
We begin with a full clinical workup, including HIV confirmation, CD4 count, viral load testing, and screening for infections like Hepatitis B/C, syphilis, tuberculosis, and other STIs. This helps us understand your immune health from the start.
2. What does your personalized treatment plan include?
Your ART regimen is designed around your unique needs — taking into account your medical history, co-existing conditions and medication tolerances. We focus on long-term success, not just short-term results.
3. Do we care for more than just HIV?
Absolutely. We manage your whole health — from chronic conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure to preventative screenings, nutritional guidance, and immune support.
4. What kind of emotional or behavioral support is available?
We know HIV can bring emotional challenges. That’s why we offer counseling for stress, depression, or stigma-related concerns, and referrals for addiction recovery when needed — all in a judgment-free, confidential setting.

Our experts monitor your progress with regular lab tests and clinical visits. As your body changes, we adjust your plan accordingly. This helps you stay informed and healthy for the long run.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that sexually active individuals get tested at least once a year. However, those with multiple partners or new partners should consider testing every 3 to 6 months. Regular testing is crucial, especially since many STIs can be asymptomatic.
If your results come back positive, we will start treatment immediately or provide a prescription the same day. We will also offer counseling, partner support resources, and follow-up testing as needed. Our goal is to treat the infection and help you prevent future exposures.
Preventive measures include regular testing, vaccination (such as HPV and hepatitis B vaccines), consistent condom use, and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention.
