Spektrum Health, an Orlando community health organization, folds STI testing into full HIV and sexual-health medical care: the standard panel, sliding-scale fees, same-visit bacterial treatment, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and appointments required for all services, with PrEP and PEP available on-site.
Read full overviewShow less
PrEP and PEP Prescribed and Monitored Here
Spektrum's own clinical staff write and manage PrEP prescriptions, including the required HIV and kidney-function labs at each follow-up, and PEP is dispensed and overseen in the same setting. No outside prescriber, no gap between the prevention counseling and the medication itself.
Hepatitis C Treatment Dispensed Without a Referral Chain
Spektrum carries hepatitis C treatment in-house, which serves anyone without a specialist relationship or a primary-care physician to hand off to. The diagnosis and the antiviral prescription come from the same team, cutting out the months a specialist waitlist can add.
Herpes and Hepatitis Screening Alongside the Core Panel
Anyone who wants a genuinely thorough picture, not just the four-infection baseline, can be screened for herpes simplex and hepatitis A, B, and C at Spektrum alongside the standard gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV tests. That breadth is especially useful for someone self-paying who wants to consolidate labs in a single appointment.

Comprehensive Health Center in Orlando pairs rapid and conventional HIV testing with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs like gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis (plus hepatitis A, B, and C, herpes, and TB) on a sliding-scale fee, by appointment, with every service available at no cost.
Read full overviewShow less
Every Service Carries a Zero Balance
A gap in care (an untreated bacterial infection, a missed hepatitis follow-up, a PrEP prescription that stalls at the pharmacy counter) often comes down to cost accumulating at each step. At Comprehensive Health Center, no service generates a bill, so treatment, vaccination, and prevention land without a financial barrier between the diagnosis and the next step.
French, Haitian Creole, and Spanish Spoken on Staff
Comprehensive Health Center conducts care directly in French, Haitian Creole, and Spanish: meaning medication instructions, treatment decisions, and prevention counseling are delivered in those languages by the clinical team itself, not routed through a secondary channel, which matters when accuracy in a medication adherence conversation cannot afford ambiguity.
Comprehensive Health Center prescribes and monitors both PrEP and PEP directly: PrEP requires regular HIV testing and kidney-function labs to stay on protocol, and both are managed by the clinic's own providers rather than handed off, keeping the prescription, the monitoring schedule, and the counseling in one continuous clinical relationship.
Embrace Health in Belle Isle runs entirely on donations and charges no fee for any service: HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia testing all covered, with Medicaid and most insurance accepted, walk-ins welcome, and same-visit treatment for bacterial infections.

Every Test, Every Visit, Zero Charge
Plenty of clinics advertise free HIV testing and quietly bill for everything else. Embrace Health charges nothing, not for herpes, not for hepatitis, not for the full bacterial panel, not for counseling. Donations are accepted, but no service carries a price tag.
Spanish and Haitian Creole Spoken on Staff
Many clinics default to remote interpretation for any language beyond English, which layers delay and distance into a conversation that deserves neither. Embrace Health conducts care directly in Spanish and Haitian Creole, with broader interpretation available for other languages.
PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP in One Prevention Portfolio
Embrace Health prescribes all three frontline prevention medications: daily oral PrEP for HIV, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP, doxycycline taken after potential bacterial STI exposure, a newer protocol still absent from many standard prevention programs.

Florida Department of Health in Orange County delivers STI care (rapid and conventional HIV testing, syphilis screening, and same-visit bacterial treatment) through Orlando's public health infrastructure, with walk-in access, sliding-scale fees, and every HIV and STI test provided at no charge.
Read full overviewShow less
Every Test and Treatment Runs Free
HIV and STI tests carry no fee, and neither does treatment when it's needed. That means the decision to get tested or follow up on results isn't filtered through cost, care and next steps stay in the same visit, at the same place, for nothing out of pocket.
Spanish-Language Care Is Fully Staffed
Spanish-language services at this Orlando clinic run through staff who conduct clinical conversations directly in Spanish: intake, counseling, and treatment discussion included. Patients aren't handed off or slowed down; the care itself happens in Spanish.
Many STI-testing sites document risk but leave prevention prescribing to outside providers. Florida Department of Health in Orange County writes and manages both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning ongoing HIV prevention, including medication monitoring, stays within this clinic rather than starting over somewhere else.

Pineapple Healthcare in Orlando takes walk-ins for the full panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and HPV vaccination, all covered at no cost.
Read full overviewShow less
Every service at Pineapple Healthcare (testing, treatment, PrEP, DoxyPEP, hepatitis care, vaccines) is provided at no charge, which means a patient managing an ongoing HIV regimen and someone walking in for a first-time panel are working from the same financial starting point: free.
Spanish Is a Full Clinical Language Here
Pineapple Healthcare delivers care in Spanish, so medication adherence counseling, PrEP education, and STI prevention conversations happen directly between provider and patient. Without a layer of translation filtering the clinical detail.
Tracking Down PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Separately Costs Time
Coordinating PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP across separate providers means gaps in coverage and repeated intake appointments; Pineapple Healthcare holds all three, so the full arc of HIV and bacterial STI prevention is managed in one clinical relationship.
Beyond the dedicated testing centers above: at-home kits by mail, hospital labs certified for STI testing, local clinicians who can order a panel during a regular visit, pharmacies for self-test kits and prescriptions, and online PrEP & treatment.
The nearest testing center is less than a mile away; if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Edgewood, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab. Results come online in days, with a clinician available if anything is positive. Same labs as a clinic, no waiting room, and you can read how accurate at-home STD tests are before you order.
Want a free option first? The CDC-supported TakeMeHome (opens in a new tab) program mails free at-home HIV self-test kits, and, in many areas, free STI kits, to your door, with no insurance or payment needed. The paid kits below add broader panels and faster turnaround.

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.

Orange County recorded 37.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Orange County residents living with HIV, 82% know their status · 79.8% are in care · 72.4% 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.
Pregnant or planning to be?
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 Orange County tests for syphilis.

South Orange Avenue carries most of Edgewood's daily traffic, and a clinic visit means following SR 527 north or taking I-4 Express toward Orlando. That access reality lands differently depending on where someone sits in Edgewood's life: nearly three-quarters of residents own their homes, many with mortgages anchored to the area for the long term, and households here run larger than the national average. The $1,025 typical rent that the smaller renting share carries isn't negligible either, and when incomes tilt as high as they do locally, it can be easy to assume cost is never a barrier, yet schedule and distance still compress what people actually get done.
What makes routine screening worth building around is the sizable share of younger adults in the mix (people in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI transmission is most common) living alongside a largely married, family-sized population in neighborhoods like Pine Castle and Sky Lake. The options listed on this page cover that whole range of needs, from low-cost appointments to evening hours that fit around full work schedules. Edgewood's high labor-force engagement means a lot of people are busy and out the door early; testing appointments tend to run thirty minutes, which is shorter than the drive to get there from South Orange Blossom Trail.

Confidentiality & consent in Florida
Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Florida 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 Florida, 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)
Florida 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.
