Every Service Priced at Zero Dollars
The no-fee structure at Dekalb Public Health covers the full scope of what the clinic does: testing, STI treatment, HPV, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and Mpox vaccines included. Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance are accepted alongside it, but the zero-dollar rate holds regardless of coverage status.
Spanish-Language Care Without a Relay Step
Spanish is a direct service language at Dekalb Public Health in Lithonia, meaning clinical conversations (history, counseling, results) happen in Spanish on-site. That capacity spans HIV test counseling, STI prevention education, and partner notification, not just intake.
Hepatitis B and C Testing Alongside the Core Panel
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, Dekalb Public Health tests for both hepatitis B and hepatitis C, plus TB. That six-infection-plus panel means a single appointment can resolve uncertainty across infections that often go unscreened together.

Every Service Carries a Zero Dollar Price
For anyone managing care without insurance, without a regular provider, or simply paying out of pocket, GNR Public Health's standing policy is that no service generates a bill. Testing, treatment, vaccines, PrEP. The fee is zero across the board, no exceptions buried in the intake process.
Spanish-Language Care Without a Handoff
When STI care requires a second appointment or an outside referral to find Spanish-language support, the gap between visit and treatment widens, and bacterial infections don't wait. GNR Public Health delivers services directly in Spanish, keeping diagnosis, counseling, and same-visit treatment on a single timeline.
PrEP and PEP Available, Covered for the Uninsured
GNR Public Health prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, and carries dedicated funding to cover PrEP costs for patients without insurance. Meaning the medication that prevents HIV transmission stays accessible rather than contingent on coverage.
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 3 miles away, if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Collinsville, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab.

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 DeKalb County tests for syphilis.

Collinsville skews heavily toward homeowners, nearly two-thirds of households hold their property, but the substantial renting minority and an unemployment rate that is genuinely elevated tell a different story about financial breathing room. At roughly $1,478 a month, rent here isn't trivial, and for the four in ten households without ownership stakes, an unexpected medical bill can mean deprioritizing a screening appointment that costs nothing in theory but still costs time and energy to arrange. That calculus matters most for younger adults, people in their late teens and twenties moving through Swift Creek and out along Turner Hill Road, because those are the years when STI exposure is statistically concentrated.
With fewer than a third of adults in married households and an average household just under three people, a meaningful share of residents are in the kinds of fluid, transitional living arrangements where regular testing is genuinely useful rather than incidental. Clinics within reach of Covington Highway or accessible without a long drive past Panola Mountain State Park mean that a working adult juggling a 66-percent labor-force participation rate and real rent pressure doesn't have to engineer half a day off to follow through. Listed options on this page means finding one that fits a tight Thursday afternoon, or a Saturday near Arabia Mountain before a trail visit, is a realistic ask, not a stretch.

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