At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand the importance of early detection and timely intervention when it comes to sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). That’s why we offer comprehensive STD screenings with utmost discretion and confidentiality. This all-in-one service screens for a range of common as well as less prevalent infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, HIV, herpes simplex and hepatitis among others based on your individual risk factors. Our experienced team utilizes advanced diagnostic techniques to ensure accurate results promoting early treatment and prevention.
Time is crucial in managing STDs effectively, which is why our clinic also specializes in rapid testing for common STDs. With turnaround times as speedy as a few hours for some tests, you need not put your life on hold while waiting anxiously for results. We utilize cutting-edge technology to deliver precise diagnoses quickly so that if needed, your treatment can start immediately.
Our service doesn’t just stop at diagnosis; it encompasses personalized treatments designed to manage or entirely eradicate confirmed infections through tailored plans by considering your overall health status. We employ safe & effective medical therapies combined with lifestyle advice contributing significantly towards better outcomes. At the Women’s Health Group Chicago Clinic in Phoenix City Centre, we’ll be there every step of the way until you’ve regained optimal health.
Concerned about passing an infection onto a partner? Or wondering if you’ve inherited one from them unknowingly? Rest assured because this task becomes ours once diagnosed! Openness may be difficult amidst fear or embarrassment but remember that notifying past or potential future partners is an essential part of preventing further spread of disease within our communities. In addition to guiding conversations compassionately yet comprehensively enough to encourage their testing needs too.
Preventive care is the most effective way to protect yourself from STDs. Among preventative measures, vaccinations play an integral part in the fight against these diseases. Here at Womens Health Group Chicago, we offer vaccinations that can fend off infections including Hepatitis A and B as well as HPV – which alone accounts for a significant number of viral sexually transmitted infections worldwide.
Taking control of your sexual health requires more than just diagnosis or treatment- it also involves being equipped with accurate information about prevention and management options available to you. We educate our patients about safe sex practices, reinforcement of vaccination schedules & other preventive strategies because there’s nothing like avoiding infection in the first place! Our compassionate counselors are on hand for any queries you may have while fostering safer habits.

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.
