Rated 4 out of 5 from 202 reviews

Planned Parenthood los Angeles in Lawndale tests for gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, chlamydia, and HIV on a sliding-scale fee with no appointment required, treating bacterial infections the same visit and offering HPV and hepatitis B vaccines alongside Spanish-language and interpretation-supported care.

Read full overview

Spanish Spoken by Staff, Not Routed Around

Spanish is a working clinical language at this location, providers communicate directly in Spanish rather than relying solely on intermediary services. For languages beyond Spanish, trained interpretation is coordinated into the visit itself, so medical history, treatment options, and follow-up instructions are conveyed with the same precision as any other appointment.

Title X Makes Minor Confidentiality a Legal Guarantee

As a Title X-funded site, Planned Parenthood los Angeles in Lawndale operates under federal family planning regulations that legally protect the confidentiality of services provided to minors. This is a structural feature of the funding designation, not a discretionary policy. That means a minor's STI testing, treatment, and contraceptive care are handled under a framework with defined legal standing.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed On-Site, Not Sent Elsewhere

Many clinics screen for HIV risk but leave patients to chase a prescriber elsewhere for PrEP or PEP. Planned Parenthood los Angeles in Lawndale writes those prescriptions directly, meaning PrEP initiation, including the baseline labs required to start, and PEP are handled by the same clinical team doing the testing.

STDs & HIV in Los Angeles County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in Los Angeles County, the county that includes El Segundo, compare with California and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~28% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.

Los Angeles County HIV care continuum (2023)

Los Angeles County recorded 19.6 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.9 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Los Angeles County residents living with HIV, 91.6% know their status · 72.8% are in care · 65.2% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.

Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.

Pregnant or planning to be? Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when

Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Los Angeles County tests for syphilis.

Local context

About El Segundo, CA

Sepulveda Boulevard funnels El Segundo residents north toward LAX and south toward the South Bay in minutes, and the options listed on this page sit within that same corridor, making a clinic visit a realistic detour rather than a separate errand. That access matters here, because most households in El Segundo rent, and at nearly two thousand dollars a month the cost of living leaves little appetite for anything that feels optional or inconvenient.

More than half of adults in the city are married, and average households run to just over three people, which means many El Segundo residents are navigating shared health decisions with partners or families rather than on their own. Young adults and people still in their late twenties, who represent a real share of the population, carry the years when chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis circulate most readily, and a county like Los Angeles keeps those rates consistently elevated. For that group especially, a visit to a listed option near Imperial Highway or along the Sepulveda stretch costs an hour, not a day.

The workforce here is large and active, and a six-figure household income is the norm for roughly half of residents, yet unemployment is present enough that cost sensitivity is real for a meaningful portion of the community. Testing fits most cleanly into the rhythms El Segundo actually runs on: high employment, long commutes past the clinics already listed, and households where two adults are making decisions together.

What each STD test costs Medicare reference prices per lab test, a benchmark before you pay out of pocket

These are the federal Medicare reference prices for processing each lab test. Public clinics and the community health centers serving El Segundo often test free or on a sliding scale; private labs and at-home kits bundle several tests into one fee. Use this as a per-test benchmark before you pay out of pocket, or see the full guide to STD test costs for insurance, free, and at-home options.

Confidentiality & consent in California Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on California law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).

Can a minor consent on their own?

In California, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

California permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.

Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
