HERE’S HOW TELEPrEP WORKS

step 1

You’ll connect privately via text, phone or video call with our Philly, Keep on Loving team. They’ll answer your questions and ask some about you.

step 2

They’ll help you schedule a Televisit with a doctor. Or, if you’re ready to go ahead and schedule, click one of our self-schedule links. Someone on our team will reach out and confirm your appointment.

step 3

Get your lab work done at our local clinic or lab company of your choice. If you need HIV or STI treatment, our local clinic will give you what you need.

Once you’ve had your Televisit and your test results come in, we can prescribe PrEP*.

OR

If you’ve chosen injectable PrEP, you’ll have to come in for in-person appointments.

*Oral PrEP, we can send in a discreet package or you can pick it up at a pharmacy or clinic.
