How to read these listings

Listings tagged Community health center are federally funded health centers and rural clinics that treat everyone regardless of insurance or ability to pay: required to bill on a sliding fee scale and provide confidential care, and in many states minors may consent to their own STI testing. A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Herpes Testing Included, No Second Stop

Leaving herpes off a panel means a separate visit, a separate lab order, and a gap where an undiagnosed infection continues. Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Center tests for herpes alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. One appointment covers what would otherwise require two.

Full STI Care Conducted in Spanish

For someone whose primary language is Spanish, Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Center delivers care (testing, treatment decisions, prevention counseling) directly in Spanish.

Rated 5 out of 5 from 8 reviews

Yamhill County Public Health Department in McMinnville runs a by-appointment clinic testing for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis on a sliding-scale fee open to all, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and care available in Spanish.

Herpes and Hepatitis on the Same Visit

Plenty of STI clinics cap their testing at gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Leaving herpes and hepatitis to a separate referral. Yamhill County Public Health tests for both herpes and hepatitis B and C alongside the core panel, so a single appointment covers infections that would otherwise go undetected until symptoms force the question.

Spanish-Language Care Handled Here, Not Forwarded

When a clinic can't communicate directly in Spanish, the cost falls on the patient. A missed nuance in a diagnosis, a prevention strategy that doesn't land, a follow-up that doesn't happen. Yamhill County Public Health delivers STI care in Spanish directly, keeping counseling and treatment in the same conversation.

Legacy-GoHealth Urgent Care in Sherwood takes walk-ins for a panel covering HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB: fees run on a sliding scale with Medicaid and insurance accepted, and bacterial infections can be treated the same visit.

Herpes and Hepatitis Tested Without a Second Trip

Leaving herpes or hepatitis untested means scheduling elsewhere, waiting, and paying again: Legacy-GoHealth in Sherwood runs hepatitis A, B, and C alongside herpes in the same visit that covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, closing that gap before you walk out the door.

PrEP Prescribed and Managed on an Ongoing Basis

PrEP at Legacy-GoHealth means a provider initiates the prescription, coordinates the required HIV and kidney-function monitoring, and adjusts the regimen over time. Not a one-time handoff. PEP is also available for prevention, handled as a direct clinical service rather than a standalone referral.

Language Access Runs Through the Clinical Encounter Itself

Many urgent-care settings treat language access as an afterthought, patched in only after a communication breakdown surfaces. At Legacy-GoHealth in Sherwood, interpretation services are available for non-English languages as part of the clinical encounter, so the history, the diagnosis, and the treatment plan are communicated directly, not reconstructed afterward.

How reported STI rates in Yamhill County, the county that includes Dundee, compare with Oregon and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~20% 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 Yamhill County tests for syphilis.

Data & references

About Dundee, OR

Sunnycrest's tree-lined streets hold a mostly settled, homeowning population. Couples, families, households that have planted roots here for the long term. Yet the share of younger adults moving through Dundee represents a real stretch of life when new relationships form, health habits solidify, and routine screening is easiest to skip when it feels logistically complicated. With most residents either owning their homes or paying rent that rivals larger metro areas, a $1,500-a-month lease leaves little cushion for medical costs that feel optional.

Even when they're not. That financial reality makes low-cost or sliding-scale options genuinely relevant, not just a safety net for a narrow slice of the community. The workforce here is largely employed and engaged, which means weekday appointment windows are genuinely scarce for many people. A household running on two incomes and averaging more than three people under one roof is coordinating schedules, not just personal calendars.

Testing options that offer flexible hours or brief visit times aren't a convenience, they're the practical difference between something that gets scheduled and something that keeps getting deferred. For those whose nearest listed option sits just off that corridor, screening becomes one stop among several. Not a separate trip carved out of a stretched week.

Confidentiality & consent in Oregon

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

Two things that actually depend on Oregon 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 Oregon, 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)

Oregon 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.
