Free STD, HIV Testing and Treatment at the Spot
Get tested on a walk-in basis for free Monday through Friday.
Free and anonymous HIV testing is offered Monday through Friday in West Hollywood thanks to the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center.
The Los Angeles-based multi-services organization provides at no cost a dozen or more services, including STD and rapid HIV testing, Hepatitis A & B vaccinations,
and PEP (Post Exposure Prophylaxis) for those who think they may have been exposed to HIV to reduce the chance of becoming HIV positive.
Testing takes place Monday through Friday from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Spot, located at 745 N. San Vicente Blvd.
