Need Telemedicine Over the Holidays?
As the holidays approach, telemedicine services are more important than ever.
While you may travel over the holidays, that doesn’t mean your health needs to take a backseat. Be sure to utilize our telemedicine services while you’re away from home.

Need STI Testing Today?
St. Thomas Community Health Center offers same-day or next-day appointments for STI testing.
Why Early Testing Is Important
- Early testing is crucial for accessing treatment early if you are experiencing symptoms.
- Many infections don’t show signs right away, but they still affect your health and can pass to others.
- It provides peace of mind and helps you make informed decisions.
Same or next-day STI testing is available to give you fast, confidential answers, so you can protect yourself and your partners, ensuring everyone stays safe and healthy.

Latinx AIDS Awareness Day
October 15th is Latinx AIDS Awareness Day, a day dedicated to breaking down HIV stigma, empowering people through knowledge, and ensuring equitable health resources for all.
By fostering understanding and emphasizing the importance of testing and prevention, we can work towards reducing the health disparities that affect Latinx populations and build a stronger, healthier community together.
