About

The city health department's weekday sexual health clinic east of downtown, where STI and HIV lab testing is free for everyone and nobody is turned away for lack of insurance.

This clinic doesn’t advertise itself as LGBTQ+ friendly. Most clinics don’t, so this isn’t a sign that it’s unwelcoming. If you’ve been, tell us how you were treated.

United States: good to know

  • What visitors pay. Baltimore's two city sexual health clinics say patients without insurance will be seen and that nobody is turned away for lack of insurance or ability to pay. Laboratory testing for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis and HIV antibody through the city health department's own lab is free for all patients.
  • PEP in this country. Both city sexual health clinics list PEP as well as PrEP, so PEP can be started in clinic hours without going to an emergency department. PEP has to begin within 72 hours of exposure.

Emergency number: 911
