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.

El Proyecto Del Barrio in Irwindale runs on a sliding scale and accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, covering rapid HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A/B/C, and TB: by appointment, with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs, and full services delivered in Spanish.

Spanish Is the Working Language Here
Spanish is an operational language at El Proyecto Del Barrio, not a supplemental accommodation. Every clinical encounter, from PrEP counseling to hepatitis C treatment planning, runs in Spanish, which means nuanced conversations about dosing, monitoring, and prevention happen without translation lag or loss.
PrEP and PEP Prescribed Where Most Clinics Refer Out
Prevention prescribing, both PrEP for ongoing HIV risk reduction and PEP for post-exposure management, sits outside the scope of most STI-focused clinics, which hand it off elsewhere. El Proyecto Del Barrio writes and manages those prescriptions directly, keeping prevention and testing in the same clinical relationship.
Hepatitis C Treatment Managed On-Site
El Proyecto Del Barrio carries hepatitis C care through to treatment, not just antibody screening. Antiviral therapy is managed at the clinic, meaning a reactive test result moves into a treatment plan without a separate provider, a separate intake, or a separate wait.

Read full overviewShow less
Spanish Spoken, Not Patched Together
Spanish speakers and those needing interpretation have direct, staffed language access at this clinic. Not a workaround arranged mid-appointment. Whether discussing PrEP eligibility, STI results, or follow-up treatment, the conversation happens in the language the care decision is actually being made in.
Title X Covers Minors With Legal Confidentiality
Without Title X, a minor seeking STI testing or family planning often faces a billing trail back to a parent's insurance, or no care at all. At Planned Parenthood Pasadena and San Gabriel Valley in Glendora, Title X funding makes those services legally confidential for minors, closing that gap before it becomes an untreated infection.
PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed and Monitored Here
PrEP requires baseline HIV and kidney-function testing, a prescription, and periodic monitoring. All handled at this clinic rather than split across providers. DoxyPEP is prescribed for post-exposure bacterial STI prevention, and PEP is available for HIV prevention, each managed within the clinic's own care cycle.

Every Service Runs on Zero Cost
Every test, treatment, and counseling session at East Valley carries no charge, which means the scope of care you receive isn't shaped by what you can afford to add to the visit. You book the appointment you need, not a trimmed version of it.
Spanish-Language Care Is Staffed, Not Sourced
East Valley operates with on-site Spanish-language capacity and interpretation services for other languages, so treatment conversations, medication adherence counseling, and follow-up planning happen in real time without a lag. That operational fluency runs through every clinical touchpoint, not just check-in.
Herpes and Hepatitis Tested Alongside the Standard Four
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, East Valley runs herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C testing in the same appointment. Those additional tests are ordered, processed, and reviewed through the same clinical workflow. No separate referral chain or secondary scheduling required.

AltaMed PACE - Covina carries federal qualification as a community health center, meaning its STI screening (syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia) is priced on a sliding scale tied to each patient's income, with no appointment needed to get started.
Central City Community Health Center in Baldwin Park tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C on a sliding-scale fee that applies to everyone; appointments are required, and bacterial infections can be treated the same visit.

PrEP and PEP Available Directly Here
Sexual health clinics that test and treat often stop short of writing prevention prescriptions, leaving patients to chase a separate provider. Central City Community Health Center in Baldwin Park closes that gap, PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention and PEP are both available here, not elsewhere in the system.
Herpes and Hepatitis Included in the Panel
The testing panel at Central City Community Health Center runs blood draws and cultures for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the core bacterial and HIV tests. Meaning a single appointment generates results across infections that would otherwise require separate clinical visits to catch.
AltaMed Medical Group in Monrovia runs STI testing and treatment within a full-service medical clinic, meaning gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV tests sit alongside family planning and medication counseling on a sliding-scale fee structure. Hepatitis A and B vaccines are also available. Appointments required.

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.

Los Angeles County HIV care continuum (2023)
Los Angeles County recorded 19.6 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.9 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Los Angeles County residents living with HIV, 91.6% know their status · 72.8% are in care · 65.2% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
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 Los Angeles County tests for syphilis.

Northside Park anchors a stretch of Azusa where households run large and neighbors tend to know each other, yet the community that gathers there is also one where nearly half of residents rent rather than own, and a meaningful share of working-age adults are currently outside steady employment. For younger adults still forming relationships and navigating busy, unpredictable schedules, that combination shapes everything about when and whether a health appointment actually happens. Rent at the typical Azusa level leaves limited room for out-of-pocket costs, and irregular work hours make weekday clinic windows harder to hit than they look on a calendar.
Los Angeles County's STI landscape is well documented, and Azusa's share of people in their late teens and twenties is substantial enough that access to routine screening genuinely matters at the neighborhood level, not just county-wide. The roughly seven-in-ten households here that are not married couples reflect a mix of living arrangements, many of them shared, that makes periodic testing a reasonable part of how people look after themselves and the people they live with.

What each STD test costsMedicare reference prices per lab test, a benchmark before you pay out of pocket
These are the federal Medicare reference prices for processing each lab test. Public clinics and the community health centers serving Azusa often test free or on a sliding scale; private labs and at-home kits bundle several tests into one fee.

Confidentiality & consent in CaliforniaMinor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on California 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 California, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)
California 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.
