Every Service Here Carries No Balance
When cost becomes the reason someone delays care, an untreated bacterial infection becomes a longer-term problem. Prince Georges County Health Department charges nothing (no fee at checkout, no sliding-scale floor) for testing, treatment, and vaccines, removing the financial stop that turns a single visit into months of postponement.
Spanish Care That Goes Beyond the Test
Spanish-speaking patients frequently leave clinics having received results but not the counseling or follow-up that should accompany them, because staff capable of that conversation simply aren't there. At Prince Georges County Health Department, Spanish is a working clinical language across HIV counseling, treatment navigation, and prevention education.
Ryan White Funds Continuous HIV Medical Care Here
Ryan White funding at Prince Georges County Health Department underwrites an unbroken arc from a rapid or conventional HIV test through ongoing HIV/AIDS medical treatment: prescriptions managed, adherence counseled, and care sustained without the patient needing to source a separate provider to continue what the test started.
Elaine Ellis Center of Health in Washington runs full-spectrum STI care (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, rapid and conventional HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB) on a sliding-scale fee with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections; appointments are required, and Spanish-language care is available on staff.

Spanish Spoken Directly, Changing What Gets Said
Elaine Ellis Center of Health carries Spanish-language services and broader interpretation for non-English speakers, which means a patient's full symptom picture, medication questions, and follow-up instructions travel accurately. Nothing compressed or left approximate because of a language gap.
Prevention Prescriptions Go Beyond the Standard Panel
Plenty of testing sites hand off prevention prescribing to outside providers, leaving patients to navigate a separate appointment for PrEP or PEP. Elaine Ellis Center of Health prescribes both on-site, keeping HIV prevention continuous and clinician-managed in the same place the testing happens.
Hepatitis C Treatment Completes Here
Elaine Ellis Center of Health treats hepatitis C on-site, so a confirmed diagnosis moves directly into a managed treatment course. No handoff to a separate gastroenterology or infectious disease practice before antiviral therapy can begin.

Family and Medical Counseling Service, a community counseling and medical practice in Seat Pleasant, pairs STI testing (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and rapid or conventional HIV) with sliding-scale fees, same-visit bacterial treatment, and appointments conducted in Spanish.

Spanish Is a Full Clinical Language Here
Spanish is a full service language at Family and Medical Counseling Service, not a supplemental accommodation, meaning history-taking, STI counseling, treatment decisions, and follow-up are all conducted directly in Spanish by the care team, without mediation.
Hepatitis C Treatment Stays in This Building
Family and Medical Counseling Service treats hepatitis C on-site, so a confirmed diagnosis moves directly into a managed treatment plan within the same practice. The clinical relationship that caught the infection is the one that resolves it.
Substance-Use Treatment Is Part of the Clinical Picture
Substance-use treatment is available alongside STI care at Family and Medical Counseling Service, which means conditions that frequently intersect can be addressed by the same practice rather than handed off, keeping the care plan coherent across both.

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.

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 Prince George's County tests for syphilis.

Landover Road cuts through a Cheverly that looks, on paper, like a community of settled stability: nearly three-quarters of households own their homes, and half of all adults are married, often raising families in houses well above the regional average in value. That kind of rooted, multi-person household life is real here, and it shapes everything from how people spend evenings to how discretionary spending gets allocated. But stability doesn't eliminate the pressure of keeping up with it. With close to a third of residents renting, paying over a thousand dollars a month for the privilege, and unemployment running higher than people often expect in a high-ownership town, there are plenty of households where a clinic visit that isn't free or low-cost gets quietly skipped.
Younger adults in their late teens and twenties, who tend to move more frequently and cycle through new relationships more often, are also the group where STIs circulate most actively. In Prince George's County, that pattern is visible in the data. The named places on this page (some near Kenilworth Avenue, others along US 50) aren't generic. They're the actual facilities serving the neighborhoods around Tuxedo and Villa Heights, where people already live and move.

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