At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the importance of proactive and preventative measures in maintaining good health. Our comprehensive STD screenings are a core part of our services designed to ensure your optimal wellbeing. We take an all-encompassing approach – testing for all common sexually transmitted diseases using advanced diagnostic procedures that give clear, definitive results. Our empathetic team takes every precaution to maintain your privacy while giving you swift access to necessary information about your health.
Our clinic is invested in reducing waiting time for test results while maintaining accuracy – which prominently features in our rapid STD testing service. This module ensures quick detection of common sexually transmitted diseases such as Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis among others. Not only does this eliminate anxiety linked with prolonged result wait times but also promotes immediate treatment commencement if necessary.
We do more than just diagnose at Womens Health Group Chicago; we treat and manage detected conditions too. Post-testing, depending on diagnosis outcome, we custom-tailor effective clinical interventions to help battle any identified infections. Beyond medicinal prescriptions or possible surgical treatments when required, we offer continuous disease management assistance until complete recovery compels us to discharge patients from active monitoring.
We understand how important it can be for intimate partners of positive-tested individuals to get themselves checked out as well. To ease into possibly uncomfortable confrontations around this sensitive issue, we provide partner notification services – alerting them anonymously about potential exposures they may have had along their journey too towards diagnosis or in forging a pathway toward appropriate preventive care.
Prevention being better than cure holds quite true in public healthcare – particularly related to communicable diseases like HPV where vaccines exist as defenses against infection. To this end, our clinic provides essential vaccinations as part of our preventive health campaign aimed at protecting you and your loved ones from preventable diseases.
Knowledge is undoubtedly the first line of defense against STDs. Thus, we work hard to ensure that all women in Country Club Hills and beyond are well-educated about sexually transmitted diseases – their causes, symptoms, preventive measures and available treatments. Our team of experienced counselors provide one-on-one counseling sessions on prevention strategies – promoting safe sex practices along with regular screenings for early detection – underlining once again how comprehensive care is central to the service ethic we uphold across every clinical encounter within Womens Health Group Chicago.

April Susmarski2024-08-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a new patient and the care I received there from all of the staff really impressed me. I couldn’t be happier with Dr. Mike and I cannot recommend him enough! His review of my (and my family’s) medical history was so in depth that we actually covered more than I ever have with my regular doctor. He went above and beyond to say the least. His approach is preventative, instead of just waiting for an issue to arise. Needless to say, I know I’m in good hands there.

An STD, or sexually transmitted disease, is an infection that is passed from one person to another through sexual contact. STDs can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites.
The most common STDs include:
STDs can be transmitted through vaginal sex, anal sex, and oral sex. They can also be transmitted through sharing needles or other drug paraphernalia.
The symptoms of STDs can vary depending on the type of infection. Some STDs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, may not cause any symptoms at all. Other STDs, such as herpes and syphilis, can cause painful sores or blisters.
The best way to prevent STDs is to abstain from sexual contact. However, if you do choose to have sex, there are a number of things you can do to reduce your risk of getting an STD, such as:
Most STDs can be treated with antibiotics. However, some STDs, such as HIV and herpes, are incurable.
If left untreated, STDs can lead to serious complications, such as infertility, pelvic inflammatory disease, and cancer.
If you think you may have an STD, it is important to see a doctor right away. They can test you for STDs and provide treatment if necessary.
It is also important to talk to your sexual partners about STDs and to encourage them to get tested.
