Sexual health matters at every age.

We often hear older adults say they “no longer need our services” — but did you know that STIs and HIV are on the rise among adults 50 and older? And rates have more than doubled for adults 65+?

Whether you're re-entering the dating scene or simply prioritizing your health, know this: s*xual activity is a normal, fulfilling part of life at any age. We’re here to support you with confidential, affordable STI/HIV testing.

📞 Call (440) 322-7526 to schedule an appointment today.
