Looking for a "Planned Parenthood" STD Test in Koh Samui?

If you are an American or Western tourist, searching for "Planned Parenthood" is second nature when you need sexual health services. You are looking for a specific standard of care: confidential, non-judgmental, affordable, and professional.

You want to walk in, get tested without a lecture, and walk out without emptying your bank account.

Here is the reality: The Planned Parenthood Federation of America does not have clinics in Thailand. While there is a "Planned Parenthood Association of Thailand" (PPAT), their branches are primarily in Bangkok and focus on local family planning, not tourist urgent care.

So, where do you go in Koh Samui?

You need a local alternative that shares those same values. At Doctor Lamai Clinic, we have modeled our sexual health services to provide exactly what you are looking for: safe, accessible, and 100% confidential care for travelers.

How We Compare to the "Planned Parenthood" Experience

We know why you searched for that name. You want safety and discretion. Here is how our clinic matches the experience you trust back home.

What STD Tests Can You Get Here?

We offer the full range of screening options you would expect at any major sexual health clinic.

1. The "Peace of Mind" Rapid Screen

• Best for: Routine checks or low-risk encounters.
• Includes: HIV, Syphilis, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C.
• Method: A simple finger-prick blood test.
• Time: Results in 15 - 20 minutes (Wait in the clinic).

2. The Full Comprehensive Panel

• Best for: Anyone with symptoms or a new partner.

Cost Guide: Budgeting for Your Test

One reason people love Planned Parenthood is the fair pricing. In Koh Samui, private hospitals can be very expensive (charging $100+ just to see a doctor).

We keep our prices accessible for travelers:

• Consultation: ~500 - 1,000 THB.
• Rapid HIV/Syphilis Test: ~600 - 1,000 THB.
• Full Lab Panel (Chlamydia/Gonorrhea): ~2,500 - 3,500 THB.

We provide itemized receipts so you can claim this back on your travel insurance if you have symptoms.

No Appointment Needed: Just walk in.

1. Discreet Registration: We need your ID for the medical file (Thai law), but it stays offline and private.
2. Fast Service: You will be seen by an English-speaking doctor in minutes.
3. Treatment: If you test positive (e.g., for Chlamydia), we give you the antibiotics right here. You don't need to go to a pharmacy and explain your situation again.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is there really no Planned Parenthood in Thailand?

There is an organization called PPAT (Planned Parenthood Association of Thailand), but they are an NGO focused on local Thai communities and family planning. They do not have a tourist-accessible clinic in Koh Samui for urgent STD testing.

Do you offer birth control like Planned Parenthood?

Yes. We offer contraceptive injections (Depo-Provera), birth control pills, and emergency contraception ("Morning After Pill"). You can walk in and request these anytime.

Is the Chlamydia test a swab or urine?

For men, it is a urine test (painless!). For women, it can be a urine test or a self-swab, depending on your preference and symptoms. We use the modern PCR method which is highly accurate.

Can I get PrEP or PEP here?

Yes. We offer PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) for HIV prevention if you have had a high-risk exposure in the last 72 hours. We can also prescribe PrEP for ongoing protection.
