Spanish Care Delivered by Clinical Staff
Without Spanish-language clinical staff, a patient navigating STI results or treatment decisions faces gaps that delay care and compound risk. At First Choice Community Healthcare, Spanish is carried by the people providing care: meaning test results, treatment plans, and follow-up happen in full, without a second appointment to fill the language gap.
Hep C Diagnosis and Treatment in One Clinic
Many clinics will confirm a hepatitis C infection and stop there, leaving patients to locate a specialist willing to take the case. First Choice Community Healthcare in Edgewood treats hepatitis C on-site, from diagnosis through the antiviral regimen, so the path from a positive antibody test doesn't end at detection.
Substance-Use Treatment Shares the Same Building as STI Care
When substance-use treatment lives somewhere else entirely, the second appointment often never happens, and an STI that intersects with active substance use goes unmanaged on both fronts. First Choice Community Healthcare keeps that treatment in-house alongside STI care, closing the gap between two conditions that frequently arrive together.
Beyond the dedicated testing centers above: at-home kits by mail, hospital labs certified for STI testing, local clinicians who can order a panel during a regular visit, pharmacies for self-test kits and prescriptions, and online PrEP & treatment.
The nearest testing center is about 14 miles away; if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Chilili, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab. Results come online in days, with a clinician available if anything is positive. Same labs as a clinic, no waiting room, and you can read how accurate at-home STD tests are before you order.
Want a free option first? The CDC-supported TakeMeHome (opens in a new tab) program mails free at-home HIV self-test kits, and, in many areas, free STI kits, to your door, with no insurance or payment needed. The paid kits below add broader panels and faster turnaround.

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 Bernalillo County tests for syphilis.

Hockett Park anchors the quieter rhythms of Chilili: a place where nearly every resident owns their home outright, households tend to be small, and a substantial share of adults are outside the paid workforce entirely. That kind of stability has its own texture: deeper roots, longer tenures, fewer of the churn-and-transition moments that typically bring younger adults through a clinic door. That demographic reality means Chilili's STI profile looks different from Bernalillo County's broader picture. The young-adult years, when new relationships form and testing habits are still being established, appear to represent a very small slice of local life here.
Even so, sexual health doesn't pause at any life stage, and the adults who are here, married or not, partnered or living alone in a two-person household, deserve straightforward access to screening without treating it as an errand that requires a half-day commitment. Getting to a testing option doesn't necessarily mean reorganizing a workday or arranging a ride, which matters in a community where formal employment patterns are limited and scheduling around a job simply isn't the main constraint. The options listed on this page cover a wide range of circumstances, so a walk from Hockett Park toward whichever listed site fits your situation is, practically speaking, where the next step starts.

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