TelePlus Care offers confidential STI testing visits to people in Spruce Grove, Stony Plain and Parkland County, daily from 8 AM to 7 PM Mountain Time. A Canadian licensed doctor reviews symptoms and exposure timing, orders tests by requisition, goes over the results and treats when appropriate. No referral is needed.
Clinical content is reviewed for accuracy and scope. TelePlus Care appointments go ahead only when a doctor agrees it is the right call, after a real assessment, and the doctor will explain the next step if virtual care is not the right fit.
Plenty of people put off STI testing because booking it feels awkward, or because the nearest clinic is one where they might run into a neighbour. A virtual visit takes that first step out of public view. You speak privately with a Canadian licensed doctor by video or phone from home, your car or anywhere else in Alberta. There's no referral, no need to have a family doctor and no judgment about why you're asking. Wanting a check with no symptoms at all is a perfectly good reason to book, since many infections cause none.

Expect questions about any symptoms, when a possible exposure happened, the kind of contact involved, condom use, and whether you've been tested or treated before. Those answers shape the requisition, so being frank helps you get the right tests the first time. Depending on your situation, the doctor may order:

Once you have a requisition, the community lab collection site at Queen Street Place, 505 Queen Street, is the central option in Spruce Grove. It accepts walk-ins as well as appointments, and walk-ins are taken up to 30 minutes before closing, so confirm the current hours before heading over late in the day. Bring the requisition with you. The same address is home to the WestView Primary Care Network office, which is useful to know if you're also hoping to find a family doctor.

Every infection has its own gap between exposure and the point where a test can reliably pick it up. Test too soon and a result can come back negative even though an infection is there. Tell the doctor the date of the contact you're worried about, and you'll get advice on whether to test now, wait a little, or test now and again later. If you already have symptoms, don't hold off booking to wait out that gap; symptoms change the plan.

Spruce Grove Transit's Route 560 offers weekday commuter service to NAIT, MacEwan University and downtown Edmonton, so many students and workers spend long days away from home. A phone or video visit can fit into a spare hour on campus, as long as you find somewhere private to talk. If reaching Queen Street Place during its hours will be hard, tell the doctor where you spend your week and ask about a collection site closer to it. For any treatment, pick a pharmacy near home or near class.

The doctor reviews your results and, when treatment is appropriate, sends a prescription to the pharmacy you choose in Spruce Grove, Stony Plain or elsewhere. You'll also talk about avoiding sex during treatment and whether retesting is needed. Several infections, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis and HIV, are reportable in Alberta, which means a positive result is shared with public health. Public health nurses may then contact your partners to recommend testing and treatment, and they don't give partners your name or personal details.
