STD Testing in Lauderdale Lakes, FL: Free, Same-Day & Confidential

Herpes and Hepatitis Added to Every Panel

Primary Medical Care Center tests for herpes and both hepatitis B and C alongside the core bacterial and HIV screen, meaning a single visit produces a genuinely complete picture. Rather than leaving two of the most common infections undetected until symptoms force the question.

PrEP Prescribed and Managed On-Site

Many sexual health clinics test and educate but hand off prevention prescriptions to a primary care provider. Primary Medical Care Center writes and manages PrEP directly, and also provides PEP, so ongoing prevention doesn't require coordinating a separate clinical relationship.

Spanish-Language Care Staffed Into Clinical Workflow

Spanish at Primary Medical Care Center is built into the clinical staff itself: counseling, medication adherence education, and STI treatment conversations happen directly in Spanish, without routing communication through a separate service layer that sits outside the exam room.

Herpes and Hepatitis Don't Get Skipped Here

Plenty of testing sites cap their panel at gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV: herpes and hepatitis require a separate appointment somewhere else, or never get checked at all. Alive and Well runs hepatitis A, B, and C antibody testing alongside a herpes screen in the same visit, closing gaps that a narrower panel leaves open.

Spanish Care Without a Secondary Step

When care at a clinic isn't available in Spanish, patients often cycle through a second appointment, a separate provider, or leave with instructions they have to piece together later. Each gap a point where follow-through breaks down. At Alive and Well, Spanish is woven into the clinical interaction itself, so nothing about your diagnosis, treatment plan, or prevention options gets lost between languages.

PrEP and PEP Are Prescribed and Managed On-Site

Alive and Well prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly: PrEP as an ongoing regimen requiring periodic HIV and kidney-function monitoring, and PEP as a time-sensitive course that the clinic initiates and tracks through completion. Uninsured patients have a dedicated pathway for PrEP coverage, keeping the medication from stalling at the pharmacy.

Herpes and Hepatitis Tested on the Same Visit

Beyond the four-infection baseline, Mendez tests for herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB in a single appointment. That means one visit generates answers across infections that otherwise require separate scheduling, each result coming back through the same provider who ordered the test.

Mendez Medical Center holds standing capacity to prescribe and manage both PrEP and PEP, the daily pill for ongoing HIV prevention and the post-exposure course, without sending patients to an outside prescriber. For anyone without a regular provider who needs either medication, the prescribing relationship starts and stays here.

Clinical Staff Carry Conversations in Spanish

Spanish is a working language of the clinical staff at Mendez, not a supplementary service. That means medical history, test results, and treatment decisions move through a direct conversation. No intermediary, no delayed clarification.

Every Service Runs at Zero Cost

All services at Broward Community and Family Health Centers carry no charge, and the concrete effect is that a patient managing multiple needs, say PrEP alongside STI treatment, moves through both without a billing split that would otherwise stall one or the other.

Haitian Creole and Spanish Are Working Clinical Languages

Haitian Creole and Spanish are staffed languages at Broward Community and Family Health Centers, meaning prescriptions are explained, adherence counseling is conducted, and medication monitoring conversations happen directly in those languages. Not routed through a secondary layer.
