Community Health Systems of Wisconsin in Beloit tests for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis A, B, and C, treating bacterial infections the same visit, on a sliding-scale fee open to all, by appointment, with care available in Spanish.
Leaving herpes or hepatitis undetected means a second appointment elsewhere, another copay, and a gap where transmission continues. Community Health Systems of Wisconsin tests for herpes simplex and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the core bacterial and HIV panel. Closing that gap at a single visit.
Community Health Systems of Wisconsin prescribes both PrEP, the daily antiretroviral regimen that prevents HIV acquisition, and PEP directly, with the ongoing lab monitoring those medications require handled at the same clinic rather than split across providers.
For someone whose primary language is Spanish and who has no regular English-speaking provider, Community Health Systems of Wisconsin delivers the complete visit (history, testing, and treatment) in Spanish, so nothing about medication instructions or follow-up scheduling gets lost in translation.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Green County, the county that includes Brodhead, compare with Wisconsin and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~23% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#22 of 72 Wisconsin counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 69% of the state
| Infection | Green County | Wisconsin | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 249 92 cases ▼ 41% | 422.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 27.1 10 cases ▼ 77% | 118.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 8.1 3 cases ▼ 11% | 9.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 2.7 1 cases ▼ 56% | 6.2 | 16 |

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 Green County, chlamydia has risen from 172.5 to 249 per 100,000 (44%), gonorrhea has fallen from 51.2 to 27.1 per 100,000 (47%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.7 to 8.1 per 100,000 (200%).

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 Green County.
Local HIV snapshot
Green County HIV care continuum (2022)
Green County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 5.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Green County residents living with HIV, 85.7% are in care · 85.7% 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 Green County tests for syphilis.

Brodhead's affordability and stability attract people who settle in for the long term, but that same character means health decisions sometimes feel more visible than they actually are.

Finding a testing appointment here is uncomplicated. Clinicians and urgent-care settings in and around town understand that confidentiality isn't a special request; it's the standard.

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