You can get STD tests at Planned Parenthood facilities (1650 Valencia St, SF Health Center), San Francisco City Clinic (356 7th Street), Women's Community Clinic (1833 Fillmore).

There are many facilities to receive free or low-cost STD testing facilities. But keep in mind that many facilities test for some -- not all -- STDs. So do your research in advance. They typically do not require appointments, and they run on a first come, first serve basis. So it is recommended that you arrange for a test on a day when you have time to wait to receive your tests and results. Some STD clinics also offer vaccines for meningitis, Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B, as well as alcohol and drug treatment.
