Family Health Care Clinic in Water Valley runs by appointment and covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee open to all. With same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and Spanish-language care available.
For someone navigating PrEP, a new hepatitis diagnosis, or ongoing HIV treatment without fluent English, the clinical conversation itself is the care, and Family Health Care Clinic in Water Valley handles it directly in Spanish or through interpretation services, so nothing gets lost between the question and the answer.
PrEP at Family Health Care Clinic means a provider assesses eligibility, writes the prescription, and schedules the repeat HIV and kidney-function testing that keeping the medication safe requires. The full clinical loop, not just a one-time script.
Without on-site hepatitis C treatment, a diagnosis often stalls into months of specialist scheduling and insurance navigation. Gaps where the virus continues its damage. Family Health Care Clinic in Water Valley closes that gap by treating hepatitis C directly, moving from confirmed diagnosis to active management without sending patients elsewhere.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Yalobusha County, the county that includes Coffeeville, compare with Mississippi and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~29% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#40 of 82 Mississippi counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 51% of the state
| Infection | Yalobusha County | Mississippi | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 670.1 83 cases ▼ 4% | 700.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 242.2 30 cases ▼ 4% | 251.1 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 72.7 9 cases ▲ 142% | 30.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 24.2 3 cases ▲ 48% | 16.3 | 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 Yalobusha County, chlamydia has fallen from 985.5 to 670.1 per 100,000 (32%), gonorrhea has fallen from 512.8 to 242.2 per 100,000 (53%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 24 to 72.7 per 100,000 (203%).

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 Yalobusha County.

Yalobusha County HIV care continuum (2023)
Among Yalobusha County residents living with HIV, 81.8% are in care · 72.7% 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 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 Yalobusha County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Yalobusha County's Coffeeville carries a particular kind of quiet, the kind built into neighborhoods where three-quarters of residents own their homes, many of them modest houses assessed well below the national median. That stability is real, but it coexists with an employment picture that leaves a significant share of working-age adults outside the formal labor force entirely, and an unemployment rate that means stretching every dollar matters. When rent is low by most measures, that still doesn't soften a month when hours get cut or a check arrives late. Those pressures land hardest on people in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI rates are historically steepest and when a clinic visit can feel like one more errand competing with everything else.
What does help is volume: testing options are listed on this page, spanning different hours, distances, and fee structures. With more than two-thirds of Coffeeville households in higher income tiers, cost may be less of a barrier than logistics, so filtering by location and appointment availability is where to start. A clinic forty minutes out on a clear road is a different calculation than one requiring two transfers.
Getting there
At 4.31/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Coffeeville generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Source: Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, CMS, 2025 rates (data.cms.gov). Reference rate for the lab assay only: a clinic visit, sample collection, or a bundled multi-test panel may cost more. Medicaid and most insurers cover STD screening at no out-of-pocket cost.
Two things that actually depend on Mississippi 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 Mississippi, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Mississippi 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.
