El Centro Family Health is a family practice in Truchas whose STI care sits within full-spectrum medicine, so gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis testing share a roof with ongoing treatment, sliding-scale fees for all, and appointments required. Spanish spoken here.
When a language barrier means critical questions go unasked, follow-up appointments get skipped and treatment stalls. At El Centro Family Health in Truchas, Spanish is a direct care language: questions about exposure, symptoms, and next steps move through fluent conversation, not across a gap.
Plenty of clinics run a hepatitis C antibody test and leave the rest to someone else, El Centro Family Health in Truchas carries the diagnosis through to treatment on-site, so a reactive result doesn't become an open errand.
Leaving substance-use treatment to a separate provider means two schedules, two intake processes, and a gap where neither issue gets fully addressed. El Centro Family Health in Truchas offers both tracks in the same setting, so neither condition waits on the other.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Santa Fe County, the county that includes Cundiyo, compare with New Mexico and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data.
#17 of 33 New Mexico counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 48% of the state
| Infection | Santa Fe County | New Mexico | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 380.2 593 cases ▼ 27% | 523.6 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 109.6 171 cases ▼ 35% | 169 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 20.5 32 cases ▼ 44% | 36.6 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 5.1 8 cases ▼ 72% | 18.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 31.4 49 cases ▼ 59% | 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 Santa Fe County, chlamydia has risen from 377.9 to 380.2 per 100,000 (1%), gonorrhea has fallen from 115.6 to 109.6 per 100,000 (5%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 9 to 20.5 per 100,000 (128%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Santa Fe County.
Local HIV snapshot
Santa Fe County HIV care continuum (2023)
Santa Fe County recorded 5 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 10.4 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Santa Fe County residents living with HIV, 79.9% are in care · 76.2% 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 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 Santa Fe County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Oratorio de San Buenaventura sits at the quiet heart of Cundiyo, a village where essentially every household owns its home and most adults are part of a couple. A stability that shapes daily life in ways the county STI figures don't capture on their own. That rootedness matters here because the picture it paints is one of a tight-knit, largely settled community rather than a transient or high-turnover population. Still, Santa Fe County's STI landscape is active enough that younger adults (people moving through their late teens and twenties, still building relationships and often least likely to prioritize a clinic visit) benefit most from options that don't demand much logistical effort to reach.
That's a real consideration when an appointment requires carving time out of a rural schedule and covering the distance on roads that wind through terrain like the slopes below Cerro Piñon. The breadth of the options listed on this page, 27 in all, means residents aren't locked into a single provider or a single fee structure. Someone near the Chimayo Apple Shed corridor can compare hours, sliding-scale costs, and distance before committing, which is exactly what makes the difference between a test that stays in mind and one that actually gets scheduled.
Getting there
At 5.15/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Cundiyo 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.
