Tenofovir-Based PrEP Prescribed and Monitored Here
Boca General and Family Medicine prescribes and manages PrEP, including the required HIV and kidney-function monitoring labs, and provides PEP, keeping both prevention medications within the same practice rather than splitting prescribing from follow-up care.
Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Treatment Without a Separate Specialist
The practice carries hepatitis C treatment on-site, meaning a patient with no regular specialist and no path to a referral can move from antibody test to antiviral prescription within a single care relationship. Critical for anyone whose insurance or cash-pay budget cannot absorb a second provider.
Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Prevent the Second-Appointment Gap
Leaving herpes or hepatitis off an initial panel means a second appointment, a second co-pay, and weeks of unresolved uncertainty. Boca General runs herpes simplex, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard four, closing that gap in a single visit.

Every Service Carries a Zero Balance
When cost becomes the reason someone skips follow-up treatment or leaves an infection unmanaged, the clinical work stops mattering. At Genesis Community Health, no service (testing, treatment, PrEP, hepatitis care) carries a fee, so nothing gets deferred because a bill got in the way.
Spanish and Interpretation Built Into Care
Many clinics handle language as an afterthought, a routed call, a delayed conversation. Genesis Community Health in Boca Raton delivers care directly in Spanish and through full interpretation services, so the clinical conversation itself is never filtered or postponed.
PrEP and PEP Prescribed On-Site
Genesis Community Health prescribes both PrEP and PEP as standing clinic services, which means a patient establishing ongoing HIV prevention leaves with a prescription rather than a second appointment elsewhere.

Helix Urgent Care in Deerfield Beach covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis testing, treating confirmed bacterial infections the same visit. Fees are charged on a sliding scale and the clinic accepts Medicare and insurance, with no appointment needed. Spanish is spoken on staff.

Herpes and Hepatitis Sit in the Panel
Seven distinct tests (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, plus HIV) make up the panel at Helix. That count means a single visit can surface infections that a shorter panel would leave undetected and unaddressed.
PrEP Prescribed and Managed Here Directly
Many urgent-care settings screen for HIV without offering the next step in prevention, Helix does. PrEP is prescribed and managed on-site, and PEP is available for prevention, keeping both pre- and post-exposure options within the same clinic rather than handed off elsewhere.
Spanish Care Is Staffed, Not Patched Together
Spanish-language care at Helix runs through clinical staff who conduct exams, explain results, and discuss treatment in Spanish directly. Not routed through a separate service. Prescriptions, follow-up instructions, and prevention counseling all happen in the same language used to ask the questions.

PrEP and PEP Where Prevention Belongs
Prevention-focused HIV prescribing gets quietly cut from many STI clinic rosters, patients are pointed elsewhere for PrEP initiation or post-exposure management. Boca Raton Family and Pediatric Center carries both PrEP and PEP in-house, so prevention is handled by the same provider running your panel.
Hepatitis A, B, and C Added to Every Panel
The clinic tests for hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the core bacterial and viral panel: meaning each visit generates serology on all three hepatitis strains, TB, and rapid HIV simultaneously. Hepatitis A and B vaccines are also administered on-site for patients who need them.

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.

Palm Beach County recorded 20 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Palm Beach County residents living with HIV, 85.9% know their status · 74.4% are in care · 67% 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 Palm Beach County tests for syphilis.

University Park draws a steady share of Boca Raton's younger adults, people building early careers near Florida Atlantic University and renting in a city where ownership runs unusually high. That ownership tilt means most rentals are scattered through established residential streets rather than concentrated in large complexes, which shapes where people land when they first arrive and how connected they feel to local services.
The workforce picture adds another layer. With labor-force participation sitting below what you'd expect in a city where nearly half of households clear six figures, a meaningful slice of residents is either studying, caregiving, or working part-time hours that shift week to week. For people in their late teens and twenties, those irregular schedules are exactly what makes same-week appointment availability matter: a Tuesday slot that opens up is the one that actually gets used. Rent at Boca Raton levels also competes with out-of-pocket testing costs, so the fee structures listed in the clinic cards on this page are worth comparing before you book.
Getting to the options listed here from neighborhoods like Old Floresta or along Yamato Road typically means a short drive rather than a walk, and that changes the calculation in a specific way: a clinic with evening or weekend hours becomes far more useful than a closer one that closes at five, because nobody is rerouting a commute on SR 808 twice.

These are the federal Medicare reference prices for processing each lab test.

Confidentiality & consent in FloridaMinor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Florida 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 Florida, 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)
Florida 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.
