How do I get STD / STI testing without a doctor?
For most Americans, obtaining a doctor’s order for medical testing is simple:
- Schedule an appointment with the doctor’s office
- Discuss personal and intimate details regarding sexual activity
- Determine which test(s) to order
Your doctor would then provide you with a physical or digital lab order. But what if you don't have a regular Primary Care Physician (PCP)? What if you do, but the next appointment is six months away, or more?
What if you don’t even have insurance?

With Request A Test, you can bypass the nuances of going through your doctor.
