Clinic FAQ

 

  • All Clinic appointments are in-person, and include an intake process. Each appointment is around 45 minutes long and includes patient intake, risk assessment, and sample collection. You will be asked about COVID symptoms, history, and risk behaviors. This information will not impact your ability to get an appointment. 

    We are a clothes on clinic, this means that clients will be taught to self collect samples that come from the genital or rectal area in a private room.  Blood and throat samples are collected by a provider. The Clinic at BAGLY does not provide pelvic examinations of any kind but is happy to refer for these services.

    We are not taking walk-in appointments at this time. While the clinic is open daily, you must book online or email us to make an appointment before you can come in person.
