Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Added to the Panel

Allina Health tests for herpes and hepatitis A and B alongside the standard bacterial and HIV panel, which means a single appointment can surface infections that a narrower panel would leave unexamined. Giving you and your provider a fuller picture to act on.

Clinical Care Conducted Fully in Spanish

Spanish-language care at Allina Health is a direct clinical capability (history, counseling, and treatment discussion happen in Spanish with staff, not mediated through a secondary channel) so nothing is compressed or lost when the medical detail matters most.

HealthPartners

HealthPartners in Saint Louis Park pairs same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs like gonorrhea and chlamydia with testing for HIV, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and TB: all on a sliding scale, with appointments required, and every service provided at no fee.

Every Service Runs Without a Bill

All care at HealthPartners carries zero cost to the patient, which means the sliding scale doesn't just reduce a bill, it eliminates it entirely, so nothing about what you can afford shapes which tests you get or which treatments you leave with.

PrEP and PEP Available Without a Primary Care Provider

HealthPartners prescribes and manages both PrEP and PEP on-site, making it a standalone source for HIV prevention medication. Useful for anyone paying out of pocket or without an established provider who would otherwise write that prescription.

Hepatitis C Treatment Runs Through This Clinic

After a confirmed hepatitis C diagnosis, HealthPartners initiates antiviral therapy directly: prescribing direct-acting antivirals, monitoring viral load through treatment, and managing the full course in-house rather than handing care off to a specialist.

MyHealth for Teens and Young Adults in Hopkins delivers STI testing (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and appointments required; all services carry no fee.

Read full overview Show less

Every Service Runs at Zero Cost

Every service at MyHealth for Teens and Young Adults is provided at no charge, which means the full panel, treatment, PrEP, vaccines, and counseling are all available without a cost calculation entering the picture. That frees a visit to be about care, not about which services someone can afford to say yes to.

Interpretation Services Support Every Appointment

Interpretation services are available for non-English languages at myHealth, meaning a patient's primary language doesn't limit which services they can access, which questions they can ask, or how clearly they can weigh their options during a visit.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed Here, Without a Referral Elsewhere

MyHealth for Teens and Young Adults carries both PrEP and PEP as standing clinical services: useful for anyone who lacks a regular provider and needs prevention medication managed in one consistent place, rather than assembled across separate appointments and practices.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 from 56 reviews

Hennepin Healthcare in Richfield runs on sliding-scale fees with Medicaid and private insurance accepted, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, rapid and conventional HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB: by appointment, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and care delivered in American Sign Language, Spanish, and additional interpreted languages.

Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Treatment Stay Together

A hepatitis C diagnosis that ends at the antibody test sends patients chasing a second provider, a second intake, and weeks of delay before antiviral therapy starts. At Hennepin Healthcare, treatment follows diagnosis in the same clinical relationship. The gap between knowing and actually getting better doesn't open.

Hennepin Healthcare prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning patients leave with an active prevention plan rather than pending paperwork. That continuity keeps the window between decision and medication as short as possible.

ASL and Spanish Aren't Bolted On Here

Many clinics treat non-English and Deaf patients as edge cases, routing communication through intermediaries that slow and flatten a clinical conversation. Hennepin Healthcare delivers care in American Sign Language and Spanish directly, and interpretation is available for other languages, so the exchange between patient and provider carries the same precision it would in any other visit.

Every Test and Treatment Costs Nothing Here

When testing reveals a bacterial infection, the next step is treatment, and at First Care Pregnancy Center in Richfield, that step never generates a separate bill. No service here carries a charge, so the gap between diagnosis and care closes at the same visit, not across multiple appointments driven by what someone can afford.

Spanish Speakers Get Direct Care, Not Brokered Communication

Many clinics handle Spanish by patching in an outside service, which puts distance between a patient and their provider at exactly the moment clarity matters most. First Care Pregnancy Center in Richfield delivers care directly in Spanish, so nothing about the conversation gets filtered or delayed.

First Care Pregnancy Center in Richfield runs herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C tests alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV: a range that serves anyone without a regular provider who needs a thorough baseline, or who wants to rule out infections that a shorter panel would simply leave unaddressed.

Planned Parenthood North Central States in Eden Prairie pairs family planning infrastructure with a full STI panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, and rapid or conventional HIV) on a sliding-scale fee with appointments, same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and interpretation services for non-English speakers.

Read full overview Show less

Live Interpretation, Not a Language Line

Walk-in urgent-care and many standalone test sites hand off language access to a phone service that neither clinician knows how to use well. At Planned Parenthood North Central States, interpretation is coordinated as part of the visit itself, so the conversation about symptoms, treatment, and next steps happens with real fluency, not workarounds.

Title X Confidentiality Extends to Minors Here

As a Title X-funded clinic, Planned Parenthood North Central States provides legally confidential family planning services to minors: meaning a young person can access STI testing, treatment, and prevention without that care appearing on a parent's insurance or requiring guardian involvement.

The clinic prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, no outside referral for the medication itself. PrEP requires periodic HIV testing and kidney-function labs to stay on the regimen safely; the clinical staff at Planned Parenthood North Central States handles that monitoring, keeping the prescription and the follow-up care in the same place.

Aliveness Project in Minneapolis tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C on a sliding-scale fee open to everyone, with walk-ins welcome, same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and all services provided at no charge.

Read full overview Show less

Zero-Cost Care, No Cash Required

Without a regular provider or insurance, the cost of STI care can quietly become the reason care gets delayed. Aliveness Project's standing policy covers every service (testing, treatment, PrEP) at no fee, so the financial calculation never enters the room.

Spanish-Language Care Stays In-House

When a clinic can't deliver care in Spanish, the gap doesn't just cause inconvenience. It can mean a prescription that goes unfilled or a diagnosis that doesn't land clearly. At Aliveness Project, Spanish-language services are built into the care itself, not routed around it.

PrEP and PEP Are Prescribed and Managed On-Site

PrEP requires more than a single prescription: it involves regular HIV testing, kidney-function monitoring, and follow-up visits to keep the regimen going. Aliveness Project staffs all of that directly, including PEP for uninsured patients, so prevention stays active rather than stalling between appointments.

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 Hennepin County tests for syphilis.

Data & references

About Edina, MN

Normandale Park sits quiet on most weekday mornings, lined with the kind of established homes that reflect how deeply ownership defines this city's residential character. With most households owner-occupied and more than half earning above six figures, Edina projects a settled, comfortable image, and that social texture shapes how residents relate to health maintenance: it tends to get treated as something to schedule carefully rather than urgently. Meanwhile, a meaningful share of households do rent here, many of them younger adults in their twenties and early thirties who are working, forming relationships, and navigating a cost of living that leaves little slack for appointments that require time off or complicated logistics.

That younger population, the group statistically most likely to encounter chlamydia, gonorrhea, or syphilis for the first time, lives alongside a county STI picture that does not sort by zip code. High labor-force participation across Edina means most people keep structured weekday hours, so clinic access depends heavily on whether the options listed on this page offer early-morning, evening, or Saturday slots. For anyone in the Lake Cornelia neighborhood, the most practical next step is checking distance and hours for the closest listed option before the week's schedule locks around other obligations.

What each STD test costs

Medicare reference prices per lab test, a benchmark before you pay out of pocket

These are the federal Medicare reference prices for processing each lab test. Public clinics and the community health centers serving Edina often test free or on a sliding scale; private labs and at-home kits bundle several tests into one fee. Use this as a per-test benchmark before you pay out of pocket, or see the full guide to STD test costs for insurance, free, and at-home options.

Confidentiality & consent in Minnesota

Two things that actually depend on Minnesota 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 Minnesota, 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)

Minnesota 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.
