AIDS Healthcare Foundation to Open Dallas Clinic

|

AIDS Healthcare Foundation will open a new center at Medical City Hospital Dallas on Dec. 1, or World AIDS day.

The clinic will host a grand opening event on Dec. 3 from 5-8 p.m., where specialists from AHF’s Public Health Division will be on site to demonstrate the new “INSTI,” a one-minute HIV test.

AHF has been using “INSTI” in Africa, India, and Mexico for about four years. It introduced it to the United States at a West Hollywood event in September. A mobile testing van will make “INSTI” available in North Texas beginning in January.

The Medical City site will be AHF’s second in Texas, joining the Magic Johnson Healthcare Center, which opened in August. The organization also operates 111 clinics in California, six in Florida, two in Washington, D.C., and one in Georgia.
