What to Expect at Midwest Express Clinic in Valparaiso

When the Valparaiso location opens, here is how a typical STD testing visit will work — this is the same process at all Midwest Express Clinic locations today:

  • Walk in or check in online to reduce your wait time — most patients are seen within 15 to 30 minutes
  • You’ll speak privately with a provider about your concerns, symptoms (if any), and which tests are right for your situation
  • Testing may involve a urine sample, a blood draw, a swab, or a combination — your provider explains what’s needed before anything is collected
  • Samples go to our lab partner (Quest Diagnostics); results are generally available within 48 hours
  • Results are accessible through the Patient Portal or MyQuest as soon as they’re posted — your provider will follow up to discuss findings
  • If a test comes back positive, our team discusses treatment options clearly and handles your care with complete discretion

 

Everything discussed during your visit is confidential. Our providers approach sexual health conversations without judgment.

Sick or injured? Get the personal care of primary care with the speed of urgent care. Walk in to Midwest Express Clinic, seven days a week.

Who Should Get Tested — and How Often?

Regular STD and STI testing is recommended for anyone who is sexually active. Here are general guidance points:

  • All sexually active adults: at minimum once per year, even with consistent condom use
  • Anyone with a new partner or multiple partners: testing before and after new sexual contact is a sound practice
  • Anyone who has had unprotected sex: get tested as soon as possible rather than waiting
  • Pregnant individuals: STD screening is a standard component of prenatal care
  • Anyone experiencing symptoms: walk in today — don’t wait for a scheduled appointment

 

Many STIs cause no symptoms at all. The only way to know your status is to get tested.

Common STD and STI Symptoms to Know

While many STIs are asymptomatic, some do produce noticeable signs. See a provider if you experience any of the following:

  • Unusual discharge from the penis, vagina, or rectum
  • Burning or pain during urination
  • Sores, blisters, bumps, or ulcers on or near the genitals, anus, or mouth
  • Rash on the palms, soles of the feet, or elsewhere on the body
  • Pelvic or abdominal pain
  • Unexplained joint pain or swelling
  • Itching, irritation, or discomfort in the genital area
