Placerville, CA, is a small city in the Sacramento-Arden-Arcade-Roseville metro area experiencing an STD crisis. The El Dorado County city has a rising number of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis infections.
Chlamydia cases are increasing fast. In 2015, the county listed 422 and by 2019, the rural area listed 488 new chlamydia infections.
El Dorado County reported 79 gonorrhea diagnoses in 2015. By 2019, it had 119 new infections.
Primary and secondary syphilis is another problem. The county listed only three cases in 2015. Four years later, in 2019, it recorded 18.
State and county officials are asking all people sexually active in the metro to seek regular STD testing to stop the spread of preventable diseases.
Several clinics near Placerville, CA, and El Dorado County provide STD testing. Many sites offer comprehensive screenings, treatment, and follow-up care.
STD testing is available at a few El Dorado County Health and Human Services Agency Public Health Services Clinics, including the Placerville site on Spring St. and the Placerville Office on Golden Center Dr.
The agency also offers screenings at the Diamond Springs Office on Missouri Flat Rd. in Placerville and the Cameron Park Office on Ponte Morino Dr.
Another option is the Shingle Springs Health and Wellness Center on Honpie Rd in Placerville.
Some locations offer free STD testing. Before heading to an open clinic, consider the privacy issues. These facilities don't provide much anonymity. Also, appointments may be limited to a few days per month, making it difficult to get fast results for immediate treatment.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.

Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
