Without knowing location IRL there's only so much advice I can give you - I know here in Aus there are generally free clinics you can go to (planned parenthood type places) that offer free testing services.
I would check around for some of those myself.
Personally I think your Dr is a quack - even if you were a virgin there is a chance that you would be carrying a dormant STI. You were reponsible to want to get checked and no way in heck should he have simply waved away your concerns in that fashion. If you wanted to get tested for polio or anthrax or the black plague as long as you were serious about it he should have given you the information and helped you to get the tests done. It's not a Dr's place to make decisions about your health, they should simply supply you with the information you need to be fully conscious of the consequences of YOUR decisions.
Never listen to your Dr just because he's a Dr, they're still human and therefore capable of making mistakes.
