Integrity Urgent Care in Cleburne runs STI testing through an urgent-care model: appointments required, with gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B and C, and herpes on the panel, same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and fees billed to Medicare or insurance, with care available in Spanish.
Plenty of clinics serve Spanish-speaking patients through workarounds, a separate line, a third party patched in after the fact. Integrity Urgent Care delivers care directly in Spanish, so the conversation about symptoms, treatment, and follow-up happens in real time, with whoever is in the room.
Integrity Urgent Care tests for herpes simplex and both hepatitis B and C alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Useful for anyone without a regular provider who needs a single appointment to cover a wider range of exposures rather than piecing together separate visits.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Johnson County, the county that includes Cross Timber, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~19% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#155 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 39% of the state
| Infection | Johnson County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 256.3 520 cases ▼ 48% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 69 140 cases ▼ 61% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 4.9 10 cases ▼ 67% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 7.4 15 cases ▼ 72% | 26.4 | 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 Johnson County, chlamydia has risen from 240.1 to 256.3 per 100,000 (7%), gonorrhea has fallen from 117.8 to 69 per 100,000 (41%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.8 to 4.9 per 100,000 (75%).

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 Johnson County.
Local HIV snapshot
Johnson County HIV care continuum (2023)
Johnson County recorded 11.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Johnson County residents living with HIV, 72.7% are in care · 64% 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 Johnson County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Cross Timber residents seeking STI testing face the practical truth of a small town: the nearest clinic may not be around the corner, and the choice of where to go often comes down to what's reachable without a long drive. That reality shapes how people approach their health. Testing facilities in and around Cross Timber listed on this page range from local offices to those in nearby areas, each with its own hours and intake process. Worth checking before you go.
For those living in Wildwood or Joshua Meadows or anywhere else in town, knowing your options ahead of time saves frustration. A significant share of Cross Timber's population is young adults in their late teens through their thirties, years when casual screening fits into life without fanfare. Confidentiality at testing sites isn't negotiable; it's standard practice. Your results won't appear on a shared family bill or get flagged in a way that reaches your employer or your neighbor.
The distance between home and a testing site can feel like a barrier, but it's also a buffer. You control when you go, how you get there, and what you tell anyone. That separation, between your private health decision and the small-town knowledge that travels fast, is often exactly what makes the step possible.
Getting there
At 5.69/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Cross Timber 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 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.
