Where to get STD testing?

Any recommendations on where to get tested for STDs? Preferably someplace cheap, discreet, and quick, though I would pay a bit more if that means the testing is done right.
Thank you for any replies.

...or some states have QuestDirect where you don't need an order from an MD
You can Google the nearest Planned Parenthood, give them a call and set up an appointment. It will be very cheap (sometimes free if you tell them you're low income) and very discreet. You don't have to give them any past info or insurance info and you can use a fake name if you want. When they call you back for results, they will use a fake name too. Or I'm sure if you don't want them calling you, you could arrange to pick the results up or something. There are other free clinics similar to Planned Parenthood but idk your area.
Find a hospital/clinic with their service. Free testing.
That and the threat of getting bombed by some alt right nut while at PP.
On a serious note thank you everyone for posting this info. Very helpful for those that didn’t know where to go.
If your junk burns - I recommend dipping them in a tub of Top Job (unconcentrated). Make sure you don’t have open cuts - as it will hurt!

Just an additional note about insurance:
I've used STD Text Express and with my insurance (Aetna) the last time. The $65 that @Sinclair mentions only applies to Blue Cross/Blue Shield. With Aetna the first $100 goes to StdTestExpress and there's additional $58 that goes to QuestDiagnostics for a total of $158.
By far the best option is QuestDirect, but it's only available in a few states. There's no MD referral necessary, it's charged entirely to your insurance, it's quick, inexpensive, accurate and discreet. All results are there on your phone or computer.
