At Integrity Urgent Care, Spanish-language care covers consultation, diagnosis, and same-visit bacterial treatment, so nothing gets lost between question and answer.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in McLennan County, the county that includes Crawford, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~18% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#14 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 94% of the state
| Infection | McLennan County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 637.4 1,712 cases ▲ 30% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 202.5 544 cases ▲ 15% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 14.5 39 cases ▼ 3% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 18.2 49 cases ▼ 31% | 26.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 24.2 65 cases ▼ 45% | 44.3 | 29.5 |

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 McLennan County, chlamydia has fallen from 779.8 to 637.4 per 100,000 (18%), gonorrhea has fallen from 402.2 to 202.5 per 100,000 (50%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 11.5 to 14.5 per 100,000 (26%).

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 McLennan County.
Local HIV snapshot
McLennan County HIV care continuum (2023)
McLennan County recorded 18.8 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among McLennan County residents living with HIV, 79.5% are in care · 69.8% 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 AtlasPlus · 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 McLennan County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Crawford took its name from the Crawford family, early settlers whose ties to the land ran deep. A pattern that still marks the town today. Homeownership and multigenerational households remain the backbone of community life, and that stability shapes how residents approach health decisions. For those navigating STI testing, that same rootedness can cut both ways: the continuity people value also means knowing discretion matters when seeking care.
Young adults in Crawford, those in their late teens through their thirties, often face the clearest need for straightforward, confidential screening. Life transitions like new relationships, job changes, or health concerns prompt the question, and testing clinics and providers in and around Crawford listed on this page offer the privacy that allows someone to get answers without the weight of small-town visibility. The testing itself is straightforward and handled by professionals trained to keep your information separate from everyday social circles. Access to testing in Crawford reflects the town's practical character.
Whether you live closer to TX 317 or toward Avenue G, the clinics serving the area understand that people here value their privacy and their time. Results remain yours alone, and seeking a test is a personal health step that doesn't require explanation to anyone but yourself.

Two things that actually depend on Texas 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 Texas, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Texas 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.
