Yes.
HIV depends on which test you did. 4th gen is probably conclusive.
Syphilis test needs to be done again at 90 days. Hep A - 4-6 months. Hep B - 6 weeks. Hep C - 6-9 weeks.
That all said, what is your exposure? You may not need some or all of these tests. Hep A and C, for example, are rarely transmitted sexually.
