Try Planned Parenthood.

Over a decade ago I tried getting the HPV vaccine in my early 20s, but the doctor told me it wasn't recommended for men and that insurance won't cover it. I was young and didn't have the money to pay out of pocket.

I went to Planned Parenthood and got the vaccine last year. At some point they changed the recommendation to men under 45 now and I got all 3 shots free.

Honestly, though I'm glad to have finally got the vaccine it's been a pretty frustrating experience.

Oh that's interesting. Thank you. I have a friend who works there as a provider. I should be able to check before going.
That's great!

For more context, I have Anthem Blue Cross health insurance. The cost might depend on your insurance.
