Henry and Stark County Health Department, Colona's public health department, anchors its STI services in the same infrastructure built for community-wide disease response: meaning gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, and hepatitis B are tested on a sliding-scale fee with same-visit bacterial treatment, by appointment, with PrEP and PEP available for prevention.

Prevention Prescriptions Beyond the Test Visit
Plenty of testing sites hand off prevention medication to a separate provider entirely. Henry and Stark County Health Department writes PrEP and PEP prescriptions directly, keeping ongoing HIV prevention within the same department where testing and counseling already happen.
Herpes and Hepatitis B Tested Alongside the Core Panel
The testing panel here runs serological and culture-based screening for herpes simplex alongside hepatitis B antigen testing, both requiring specific assay types that go beyond basic nucleic acid amplification. That means a single appointment at Henry and Stark County Health Department covers six distinct pathogens rather than four.
MercyOne in Silvis tests for HIV, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee; insurance is also accepted. Bacterial STIs are treated same visit, and appointments are required.

PrEP and PEP Where Most Clinics Stop
Plenty of testing sites can confirm an exposure but hand off prevention to a separate provider. MercyOne in Silvis prescribes both PrEP and PEP on-site, keeping ongoing HIV prevention and post-exposure response in the same clinical relationship rather than scattered across multiple offices.
Hepatitis C Treated Here, Start to Finish
When hepatitis C is detected, MercyOne in Silvis moves directly into treatment. Prescribing antivirals and monitoring response through the same clinical team that ran the test. Patients don't need to re-establish care elsewhere to access a cure.
Herpes and Hepatitis Included in the Panel
MercyOne in Silvis tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard bacterial infections, which means conditions that often go undetected in a basic screening get a diagnosis, and, where treatment exists, can be addressed right away.

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 Clinton County tests for syphilis.

Camanche, the quieter stretch where Lincoln Way rolls toward the county's northern edge, sets the tone for how Clinton residents actually move through their days. Most households here own their homes, with property values well below state averages, and typical rents that leave little cushion once utilities and groceries are accounted for. That cost reality matters for health decisions: when a clinic visit feels like a line item competing with rent, the threshold for booking an appointment rises, even for something as routine as STI screening. The household profile adds texture to that picture.
Families here run slightly larger than the national norm, and just under half of adults are married, meaning a meaningful share of Clinton's population is navigating dating, new partnerships, or longer-term relationships at various life stages. Young adults in their late teens and twenties, who statistically face the steepest STI risk, are part of a broader community where two earners are often stretched thin and fewer than one in five households clears six figures. From Camanche, a short run down US 67 puts several of those listed options within reach. Check the clinic cards for same-day or walk-in availability, then go before anything changes your mind.

Confidentiality & consent in IowaMinor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Iowa 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 Iowa, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own; a parent may be notified only in the case of a positive HIV test result.
Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)
Iowa 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.
