Rated 3.5 out of 5 from 5 reviews

MercyOne in Davenport charges on a sliding-scale fee and accepts insurance, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and TB: appointments required, with bacterial infections treated the same visit and PrEP and PEP available.

Read full overview Show less

PrEP and PEP Prescribed Directly at MercyOne

MercyOne carries both PrEP and PEP, and uninsured patients have a dedicated cost pathway for PrEP. That means the prescription, the monitoring labs, and the clinical relationship all stay in one place: no separate specialist, no gap between the medication and the care managing it.

Hepatitis C Treatment Happens Right Here

MercyOne's standing capability runs from hepatitis C antibody test through to treatment, on-site. For someone without a regular provider or paying out of pocket, that matters: the path from diagnosis to curative medication doesn't require navigating a separate specialist or absorbing a second set of costs.

Skipping Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Has a Price

A panel that stops at chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV leaves herpes and hepatitis B and C undetected until symptoms force a second appointment. Often at a different clinic. MercyOne's broader panel closes that gap in a single visit, so nothing is deferred and no infection goes unnamed.

STDs & HIV in Scott County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in Scott County, the county that includes Davenport, compare with Iowa and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~28% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.

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.

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 Scott County tests for syphilis.

Data & references

About Davenport, IA

West Kimberly Road cuts through Davenport's everyday commerce, and the modest home values and rent levels along that corridor reflect a city where housing costs stay genuinely accessible by most measures. That affordability shapes how residents budget across the board, and for the roughly three in eight households who rent rather than own, monthly expenses tend to stay tight enough that a clinic visit with an unexpected fee can feel like a real calculation, not a casual one. With nearly two-thirds of adults in the labor force and household sizes averaging well above two, schedules here tend to be full and shared.

Young adults in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI rates run highest, are navigating that same texture: jobs, shared housing, and limited flexibility in the middle of a workday. Neighborhoods like Riverview Terrace and Black Hawk sit within a city where most residents do own their homes, building a kind of longer-term stability, yet nearly one in five households still earns above six figures alongside a significant share managing on considerably less. That spread means the sliding-scale and low-cost options among the listings here stay relevant across a wide cross-section of Davenport.

Confidentiality & consent in Iowa

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Iowa 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 Iowa, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own; a parent may be notified only in the case of a positive HIV test result.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Iowa 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.
