How to read these listings

Listings tagged Community health center are federally funded health centers and rural clinics that treat everyone regardless of insurance or ability to pay: required to bill on a sliding fee scale and provide confidential care, and in many states minors may consent to their own STI testing. A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 from 32 reviews

Fulton County Board of Health in Alpharetta runs gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and rapid or conventional HIV testing with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections; hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB screening round out the panel. Fees follow a sliding scale and walk-ins are welcome.

Read full overview

Hepatitis B, C, and TB Sit in the Standard Panel

Gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV are the floor, not the ceiling: hepatitis B antibody testing, hepatitis C antibody testing, and TB screening are ordered through the same visit. That single appointment generates results across all infections without scheduling separate referrals to outside labs.

Spanish-Language Care Is Delivered Directly at This Clinic

Clinical care at Fulton County Board of Health in Alpharetta is conducted in Spanish: counseling, STI treatment decisions, and hepatitis and TB education included. Accuracy in those conversations shapes treatment adherence and follow-up, which is why Spanish is a primary service language rather than an accommodation layered on afterward.

Southeast Medical Group

No ratings yet

Southeast Medical Group in Johns Creek requires an appointment, so scheduling is the first step: once you're in, a single visit covers rapid and conventional HIV testing, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, TB, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, on a sliding-scale fee, with all services provided at no fee.

Read full overview

Every Service Runs at Zero Cost

Southeast Medical Group charges nothing across its full catalog: testing, STI treatment, hepatitis B and C treatment, PrEP, PEP, vaccines, and HIV medical management all carry a $0 price tag. That means the scope of care you can access isn't shaped by what you can spend.

Spanish Spoken, Interpretation Beyond That

Spanish is available directly at Southeast Medical Group, and interpretation services extend to additional non-English languages. The practical effect: details like dosing instructions, medication adherence counseling, and prevention education land accurately, not approximately.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed and Managed On-Site

Southeast Medical Group prescribes and manages both PrEP and PEP directly, no separate infectious-disease provider needed. For someone without a primary care relationship, or anyone who needs HIV prevention medication handled in one place alongside testing and counseling, that consolidation is the practical advantage.

Herpes and Hepatitis Confirmed Without a Second Stop

Chasing a herpes or hepatitis diagnosis through a separate specialist means another copay, another wait, and a gap where an undetected infection continues unmanaged. At Nexclin Medicine, herpes typing and hepatitis A, B, and C testing sit alongside the core panel in a single appointment. No second referral loop required.

Gwinnett Clinic in Duluth tests for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis, treating bacterial infections the same visit. Fees run on a sliding scale and insurance or Medicaid is accepted; an appointment is required.

Gwinnett Clinic carries both PrEP and PEP on-site, meaning anyone without a regular prescribing provider, or paying cash and wanting to consolidate care, can get the medication and the ongoing counseling that makes it effective in one place.

Herpes and Hepatitis Added to the Standard Panel

Testing at Gwinnett Clinic covers herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the core bacterial and HIV tests, so a single appointment produces a fuller picture of your status rather than leaving gaps that would otherwise require a separate visit.

Georgia Harm Reduction Coalition

Rated 4.4 out of 5 from 15 reviews

Georgia Harm Reduction Coalition in Norcross covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, hepatitis A, hepatitis C, and HIV testing, treating bacterial STIs the same visit and dispensing condoms and vaccines. All on a sliding scale with no cost to most people who walk in.

Read full overview

Every Service Runs Without a Bill

Fee-for-service clinics routinely separate testing from treatment, leaving patients to reconcile costs at every step. Georgia Harm Reduction Coalition absorbs the whole encounter (testing, treatment, vaccines, PrEP, PEP, DoxyPEP) at no charge, so nothing on the service menu carries a separate price tag.

Three Prevention Prescriptions, One Clinical Team

Georgia Harm Reduction Coalition prescribes and monitors all three prevention medications (daily oral PrEP for ongoing HIV protection, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP for bacterial STI prevention after potential exposure) through a single clinical relationship rather than separate specialists or referral chains.

Hepatitis C Treatment Delivered at the Same Address

For people without a primary care provider or managing hepatitis C costs out of pocket, Georgia Harm Reduction Coalition's standing capacity to treat, not just detect, makes the difference. Antiviral treatment for hepatitis C is administered on-site, meaning a reactive test doesn't end the visit; it starts the next clinical conversation.

Center for Pan Asian Community Services

Center for Pan Asian Community Services in Norcross tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis A, B, and C, and herpes on a sliding scale, and every service is provided at no fee. Appointments are required, and bacterial STIs are treated the same visit.

Read full overview

Every Service Here Carries Zero Cost

Sliding scale at most clinics still produces a number at the end, a co-pay, a lab fee, something. At Center for Pan Asian Community Services, the scale bottoms out at nothing across the board: testing, treatment, vaccines, counseling, every line item. The fee is not reduced; it is gone.

Clinical Conversations Happen in Your Language

When a patient can't fully explain symptoms or history in their primary language, the clinical picture is incomplete, and so is the care. Center for Pan Asian Community Services conducts care directly in Chinese, Spanish, and Vietnamese, with interpretation available for additional languages, keeping nothing lost between a patient and their provider.

Substance-Use Treatment on the Same Care Plan

Most STI clinics treat the infection and leave the underlying risk factors for someone else to address. Center for Pan Asian Community Services integrates substance-use treatment into the same setting, so a patient whose STI risk is tied to substance use gets both addressed without splitting care across separate providers.

North Georgia Health District

No ratings yet

North Georgia Health District in Woodstock runs STI care on a sliding-scale basis, with free HIV testing and donations accepted in place of fees, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and conventional HIV, by appointment.

Read full overview

Cash Payers Get Full Care, Zero Balance

North Georgia Health District's standing policy is that no one paying out of pocket hits a hard cost wall: every service, from testing to STI treatment to vaccines, runs on donations accepted or sliding-scale, with HIV testing free outright. For anyone without a regular provider or insurance, that's the whole visit covered.

Spanish Speakers Treated Here, Not Redirected

Without Spanish-language capability on-site, a patient leaves with instructions they can't fully act on. A treatment they may not take correctly, a follow-up they may not book. North Georgia Health District in Woodstock closes that gap directly, delivering STI care and counseling in Spanish at the point of service.

Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Alongside the Core Panel

Someone without a regular doctor, and therefore without routine bloodwork, often has no way to screen for herpes or any of the three hepatitis strains outside a specialized clinic. North Georgia Health District tests for all of them in the same appointment that covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV.

Rated 3.1 out of 5 from 273 reviews

Four Corners Primary Care Centers in Norcross is a primary care practice where STI care sits alongside ongoing medical services: meaning gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and herpes testing, plus same-visit bacterial treatment, happen within a full clinical relationship, on a sliding-scale fee, by appointment, with care available in Spanish.

Read full overview

Spanish Spoken, Charted, and Treated Here

Four Corners delivers care in Spanish across the full visit: not just intake, but counseling, treatment, and follow-up. That means a patient's clinical decisions and questions about their STI care get handled in the same language throughout, without switching registers mid-appointment.

Title X Covers Minors With Legal Confidentiality

Four Corners operates under Title X, which makes family planning services for minors legally confidential: not just a clinic policy, but a federal protection that determines what can appear on a billing statement or be shared without the minor's consent.

Many primary care practices screen for HIV risk but send patients elsewhere for actual prevention prescriptions. Four Corners prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, so HIV prevention is managed within the same practice handling the rest of your sexual health care.

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.

Among Fulton County residents living with HIV, 86% know their status · 76.4% are in care · 64.5% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.

Pregnant or planning to be? Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when

Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Fulton County tests for syphilis.

About Alpharetta, GA

GA 120 stretches west out of Alpharetta toward the nearest testing options listed on this page, and depending on where you sit along Old Milton Parkway, that drive can run twenty minutes or more each way, a real time commitment for a city where most adults are actively employed and schedules fill fast.

The household profile here shapes how people think about health logistics. Most residents own their homes, and with average household sizes running notably larger than the national norm, families share cars, share calendars, and share competing obligations. Married adults make up a clear majority of the population, which means many screening decisions involve coordinating around a partner's schedule as much as one's own. At the same time, the roughly one-in-three residents who rent are doing so at monthly costs that leave less room for appointments that carry out-of-pocket fees, making affordable options on this page worth a close look before booking.

Young adults in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI exposure tends to peak, live alongside Alpharetta's established families in neighborhoods like Jamestowne and Wedgewood Forest, and their access calculus is different: fewer anchor obligations, but also fewer reasons to prioritize a clinic run over the next thing on the list. For households of any size or life stage, knowing which listed options accept your coverage and sit closest to the GA 9 corridor removes one more reason to postpone.

Confidentiality & consent in Georgia Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Georgia law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).

Can a minor consent on their own?

In Georgia, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Georgia permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.

Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
