Jamestown Family Health Clinic in Sequim runs appointments for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV testing. With same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs on a sliding-scale fee. PrEP and PEP are available on-site.
Without on-site PrEP and PEP prescribing, the path to prevention often fractures across multiple appointments at separate practices. Each one a delay. Jamestown Family Health Clinic holds both prescriptions in-house, so neither prevention option requires a second provider to complete.
Jamestown Family Health Clinic tests for herpes simplex and both hepatitis B and hepatitis C alongside the core bacterial and HIV panel, seven infections in total. Catching hepatitis B early connects directly to the adult hepatitis B vaccine available at the same clinic, closing a gap that a narrower panel would leave open.

Jefferson County Public Health in Port Townsend runs entirely on sliding-scale fees, accepts Medicaid and private insurance, and covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and TB. With same-visit treatment for bacterial infections. An appointment is required; all services carry no charge to the patient.
Jefferson County Public Health is staffed and funded so that the sliding scale bottoms out at nothing, no copay collected, no bill sent after insurance processes. Every clinical interaction, from the initial test to STI treatment, is absorbed within that structure.
Spanish is offered as a direct care language at Jefferson County Public Health, not routed through an auxiliary service. That means clinical conversations, including PrEP counseling and STI treatment decisions, happen in Spanish without routing through an intermediary, keeping the clinical record accurate and the care continuous.
When prevention medication requires a separate specialist, each handoff is a point where people drop out. Jefferson County Public Health prescribes and monitors both PrEP and PEP directly, so the person who tests negative and wants to stay that way leaves with a prevention plan, not a referral to track down.

#32 of 39 Washington counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 18% of the state
| Infection | Clallam County | Washington | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 141.7 110 cases ▼ 60% | 354.4 | 492.2 |

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.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Clallam County, chlamydia has fallen from 155.5 to 141.7 per 100,000 (9%), gonorrhea has risen from 13 to 30.9 per 100,000 (138%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 1.3 to 1.3 per 100,000.
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Clallam County.
Local HIV snapshot
Clallam County HIV care continuum (2022)
Clallam County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 6.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Clallam County residents living with HIV, 80.2% are in care · 72.1% 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.
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 Clallam County tests for syphilis.

Two things that actually depend on Washington 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).
In Washington, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Washington 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.
