What Guidelines Does the Treatment Actually Follow?

Molecular fluorescence imaging — Auspicious Laboratory, Houston

The standard is the CDC STI Treatment Guidelines — not a house protocol.CLIA #45D2048957 · CAP #8722734 · Same-day results · Walk-ins welcome

A fair question to ask any clinic that offers same-day treatment: on what authority? The answer here is the CDC STI Treatment Guidelines, the same document used in academic infectious-disease practice. What we add is not a different standard — it is the ability to apply it the same day, because the molecular result and the physician are a few minutes away.

Guideline, result, physician

Input	Source
What to treat and with which drug class	CDC STI Treatment Guidelines
What organism you actually have	Your in-house molecular PCR result, same day
Dose, route, allergy and pregnancy adjustments	The licensed physician who sees you
Retesting and partner management	CDC — including expedited partner therapy where appropriate

Speed without a standard is just a faster way to be wrong. The point of the same-day loop is to deliver the guideline-based decision sooner, not to skip it.

The organism row in that table comes from testing, and you can see what our Houston lab tests for before your visit.

We name drugs, never doses. Every treatment statement here is attributed to CDC guidance, and every path ends the same way: a licensed physician decides what you actually take.

Same day, start to finish. Sample by 1:00 PM → results at 5:00 PM → if treatment is clinically appropriate, a licensed physician in our partner network sees you between 5:00 and 6:00 PM, a few minutes away. That window is reserved for patients tested here, and your slot is held the moment we take your sample — the slot is held, not hunted. On your own, a same-day appointment is nearly impossible; at an urgent care, you wait in the queue. STAT: ~2 hours, sample in by 3:00 PM.
