La Casa Family Health Center, a family practice in Clovis, folds STI care into the same appointment-based rhythm as any other health visit: gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia, herpes, and HIV testing, same-visit bacterial treatment, and sliding-scale fees, with services available in Spanish.
La Casa Family Health Center delivers STI care in Spanish, not as an accommodation but as part of how the practice runs. That means clinical conversations, follow-up, and treatment planning happen without switching registers or losing nuance.
La Casa tests for herpes in addition to gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia, and HIV, which means a single appointment can surface infections that a narrower screen would leave unaddressed. Useful when symptoms are ambiguous or exposure history is broad.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Curry County, the county that includes Clovis, compare with New Mexico and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~32% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#7 of 33 New Mexico counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 79% of the state
| Infection | Curry County | New Mexico | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 554.8 262 cases ▲ 6% | 523.6 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 112.2 53 cases ▼ 34% | 169 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 40.2 19 cases ▲ 10% | 36.6 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 19.1 9 cases ▲ 6% | 18.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 82.6 39 cases ▲ 8% | 76.6 | 29.5 |
Rates per 100,000 population, 2023. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis). Population figures: U.S. Census Bureau ACS. These figures are the latest available surveillance estimates. Bars are scaled to the highest rate shown.
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 Curry County, chlamydia has fallen from 964.3 to 554.8 per 100,000 (42%), gonorrhea has fallen from 346.9 to 112.2 per 100,000 (68%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.1 to 40.2 per 100,000 (1814%).

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 Curry County.
Local HIV snapshot
Curry County HIV care continuum (2023)
Among Curry County residents living with HIV, 69% are in care · 45.2% 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 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 Curry County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Clovis runs on shift work and long commutes down Mabry Drive and US 70, which means a Tuesday afternoon appointment is a fantasy for a lot of people here. With a meaningful share of adults outside the labor force altogether, and unemployment above the national average, the calendar pressures that delay testing aren't laziness; they're the math of a town where irregular schedules and stretched budgets share the same household. Nearly half of Clovis residents rent, and at around $822 a month that sounds manageable until you factor in utilities and a household averaging more than three people: cost-conscious decisions get made fast, and a clinic visit without a clear price tag tends to lose. That everyday squeeze lands hardest on younger adults still figuring out relationships, employment, and insurance at the same time.
Exactly the people for whom STI rates run highest and for whom a test that requires two bus transfers or a half-day off work simply won't happen. Curry County's STI picture makes accessible options more than a convenience; they're a practical necessity. The testing locations listed here range across the city's footprint, so whether you're closer to Green Acres or the blocks off North Prince Street, there's likely a site that fits your actual route home.
Getting there
At 7.43/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Clovis generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

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).
In New Mexico, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
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.
