Welcome to Private Testing Center
Boston has the 24th Highest overall STD Infection rate in the U.S.
Boston’s cases of Chlamydia and Syphilis increased in 2015 along with the rest of the nation, but at a rate lower then the national averages. However, the number of new cases were the highest among the New England states.
A looming threat to Massachusetts’ progress in slowing the spread of HIV is the expanded use of heroin. “We risk stalling or reversing decades of progress in HIV prevention,” said Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
You can only get HIV from infected blood, semen, vaginal fluids or breast milk entering your body. But because heroin users often share needles, syringes and other similar injection equipment, the risk of an HIV infection becomes much higher. In one study, one third of drug users reported sharing a needle within the past year.
Getting tested regularly for HIV and STDs is essential to stopping their spread. About 1 in 7 people with HIV in the United States don’t know that they are infected, and they inadvertently perpetuate the epidemic when they have sexual contact or share needles with others. Plus, while all STDs can be treated or controlled and many can be cured, if left untreated these diseases can wreck havok on your body, often without any outward symptoms at all.
You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to get the answers about your sexual health. Private Testing Center offers over 60 different locations within a 50 mile radius of Boston. A testing center is guaranteed to be conveniently close. Same day appointments are available, and the average lab visit takes just 15 minutes. There’s no reason not to get tested. Call us Today.

Private Testing Center strives to offer affordable, discreet and convenient testing in an effort to prevent the spread of STDs and HIV.
The CDC estimates there are 20 million new cases of STDs in the U.S. each year, with 50% of those new cases falling on young people ages 15 to 24.
In one study, they examined 1,000 adolescents and found that 1 in 4 of them had at least 1 common STD, and 15% were infected with more then one. Most participants in the study showed no symptoms and didn’t even realize they were infected. Even among people who only had one partner in their lifetimes, 1 in 5 still had an STD — but of those with three or more partners, 50% had an STD.
The good news is that many STDs are curable, and those without a cure are treatable. You owe it to yourself and others to find answers and protect yourself. Private Testing Center has 1500 locations nationwide in one of the largest laboratory networks anywhere in the world. Same day appointments are available with scheduling as soon as 15 minutes after calling. The average lab visit lasts just 15 minutes and some results are available the following day.
