Previous threads mention options that aren’t available anymore (e.g., Dr. Johneen Manning), so I’m looking for updated recommendations.

I’m trying to find a place where I can get a Pap smear without a referral as I do have a family doctor, but they won’t refer me elsewhere because they offer Pap tests at their own clinic, however their clinic only runs one week per month, and it consistently falls during my period. Since it’s not recommended to do the test while menstruating due to possible inconclusive results, I’ve had to postpone it for the past three months.

At this point, I don’t want to keep delaying. Does anyone know of clinics or providers where I can book a Pap test directly without a referral?
