You don’t have to keep wondering.
Maybe it was one night you’re not sure about. Maybe a partner said something. Maybe you just feel off and can’t stop thinking about it. Whatever brought you here, the fastest way to make the worry stop is to know. Most people who test come back negative – and the ones who don’t are treated quickly and quietly. Either way, you’ll be okay.

STDs in Amherst: what the numbers say
Erie County reports more than 7,000 new chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis cases a year, about 19 a day, with a chlamydia rate 13% above the national figure and a gonorrhea rate well above it. Most of these infections cause no symptoms at all, which is the case for a routine test when you feel fine, not just when something seems wrong.
The people hit hardest are the ones least likely to have a doctor to call: nearly half of all chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis cases nationally are in people aged 15 to 24, and the University at Buffalo alone enrolls more than 30,000, most of them on the North Campus in Amherst. The Erie County Department of Health's sexual health clinic on William Street in Buffalo tests and treats for free, and it is a real option if cost is the only barrier, but it means clinic hours, a wait, a drive downtown, and a visit that goes on a medical record.
That is who we built this for. No insurance, no referral, no exam, one flat price, four places to go across Amherst, two of them open Saturday and twenty more around Buffalo and Niagara, and a result in your private account in 1–2 business days. If something comes back positive, our care team calls you and, for most infections, treatment is a short prescription.

Questions people in Amherst ask us
Is the 3950 E Robinson Rd location open on Saturday?
No. This location is open weekdays 6:30 am to 3 pm, weekdays only. If you need a Saturday, Sheridan Drive in Eggertsville and Transit Road in Williamsville both open Saturday from 6 to 11; the Amherst page lists every location by area. Order first so your lab order is waiting when you arrive.
What do I need to bring to 3950 E Robinson Rd?
Nothing but yourself. Your lab order is already at the test center; you sign in at the kiosk with your first name, last name and date of birth. No ID check, no paperwork, no payment at the lab, and no insurance card, because nothing is billed to insurance. The charge on your card shows as RSC Health.
Is there free STD testing in Amherst?
Yes. The Erie County Department of Health's Sexual Health Center on William Street in Buffalo tests and treats for free, and Evergreen Health and Planned Parenthood of Central and Western New York offer free or sliding-scale testing in Buffalo. If cost is the only thing stopping you, use them. The trade-offs are clinic hours, a wait, a visit that goes on a medical record, and results that can take longer. We are a paid service, and what you pay for is speed and privacy: order today, go to any of our labs without an appointment, no exam, nothing billed to insurance, and a result in your own account in 1–2 business days.
Can I get an STD test at CVS or Walgreens in Amherst?
CVS MinuteClinic locations in Amherst do offer STD testing, but it is a clinic visit: you book, see a provider, the visit is billed to insurance or paid out of pocket at clinic prices, and it goes on your medical record. Walgreens sells at-home collection kits you mail in. With us there is no exam and no appointment; the doctor's order is included, you give the sample at a lab in about five minutes, and the charge on your card shows as RSC Health.
How much does an STD test cost in Amherst?
One flat price that includes the doctor’s order, the lab visit and your results – no facility fees, no separate lab bill and nothing billed to insurance. Call (866) 872-1888 and a care advisor will quote it in about a minute, or see the Tests & Pricing page if you prefer to order online.
Which Amherst lab is closest to UB, Williamsville or Snyder?
From the UB North Campus, Getzville or the 990, East Robinson Road is minutes away. From the South Campus, University Heights, Eggertsville or Snyder, use Sheridan Drive, which opens at 6 AM and on Saturday, or Maple Road. From Williamsville, Clarence or East Amherst, Transit Road at Transit Town Plaza is closest and also opens Saturday.
Can I get tested on a Saturday in Amherst?
Yes. Two Amherst locations open Saturday from 6 to 11 AM: Sheridan Drive in Eggertsville and Transit Road in Williamsville. The other two are weekdays only. Order online or call first so your lab order is waiting.
Do I have to live in Erie County to use these labs?
No. Anyone can use any location, and people come in from Niagara County, the Tonawandas, Lockport and across the border from Fort Erie every day. If Buffalo, Cheektowaga, Tonawanda, Depew or Niagara Falls is closer to home or work, each has its own page with addresses and hours.
Will my Amherst employer, school or parents find out?
No. We never bill insurance, so nothing appears on a family plan statement, and we never mail anything. Your results are posted only to your password-protected account, the lab staff see a lab order rather than a reason, and the charge on your card reads RSC Health.
Where is the closest place to get an STD test near me in Amherst?
Once you’ve ordered, this location takes about 5 minutes – no appointment needed. Order online or call first so your lab order is waiting when you arrive; there are other Amherst locations listed below if another one is closer.
What if I’m too embarrassed to go in?
You don’t have to explain anything at the lab. They see a lab order, take a small sample, and you leave. Nobody there knows what you’re being tested for, and nobody calls you by your reason for being there.
How soon after exposure can I test?
It depends on the infection – some show up in days, others take a few weeks. Call us and we’ll tell you the right timing for your situation so you don’t get a false “all clear.”
What if it’s positive?
Most STDs are cured with a short course of medication, and the rest are managed with treatment that lets you live normally. Our care team calls you, explains the result in plain language, and helps you get treated fast.
Do I need an appointment or a doctor?
No. The doctor’s order is included when you order, and every location takes you without an appointment once you’ve ordered.
Will this show up on my insurance?
No. We never bill insurance, so nothing appears on your record or on a parent’s or spouse’s statement.
How fast are results?
Most results are ready in 1–2 business days and are posted to your private online account. Results are never mailed or texted.
