PrEP is a daily pill (or every-other-month injection) that prevents HIV. Here's how to start, what labs you'll need, and how we make it easy in Oakland.
PrEP — pre-exposure prophylaxis — is a safe, highly effective medication you take to prevent HIV. Most patients take a single pill once a day; some choose an injection given every two months. Either way, the goal is the same: peace of mind, on your terms.
What this looks like in practice
We meet people where they are. That means short, honest conversations, plain-language answers, and a plan that fits your life — not a one-size-fits-all script.
- Same-day appointments are often available.
- Tuesday evenings open until 8 pm.
- Telehealth visits when you can't come in.
"Good medicine is a relationship — not a transaction."
