Can I walk in for STI or TB testing?
[ VERIFIED · OCT 2026 ]The clinics in the West 12th building provide direct diagnostic and treatment services for tuberculosis and sexually transmitted infections. Call ahead, since each clinic keeps its own schedule rather than general office hours.
Do I need a referral from my doctor to use their services?
[ VERIFIED · OCT 2026 ]No referral is needed for the direct clinical services, which are set up for people with diseases of public health importance. You can contact the centre directly about TB, STI, and immunization services.
Is there a poison emergency line?
