Laclede County reports about 35 syphilis cases per 100,000 residents, well above the US average. In Evergreen, Missouri, consider your STI testing options whether you have symptoms or just want peace of mind. For guidance and treatment, visit a clinic; for convenience and timing, try an at-home kit. Your best fit depends on the trade-off in care and flexibility. See the list below.
Available testing centers
7 testing options are listed for Evergreen, MO. The nearest, Jordan Valley Community Health Center, is about 8.2 miles away. Compare community and public clinics, private labs, and at-home kits below.
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.

Jordan Valley Community Health Center in Lebanon runs on sliding-scale fees with Medicaid and commercial insurance accepted. The panel covers HIV by rapid or conventional test, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and TB, appointments required, with STI treatment on-site and substance-use care available alongside.
Jordan Valley includes herpes testing within its routine STI workup, not as an add-on requiring a separate referral. That single addition means a visit can produce a complete picture of bacterial and viral exposure status without a second appointment elsewhere.
Jordan Valley carries a substance-use treatment program as a standing clinical service, not a handoff. The consequence is coordinated charting and provider communication between STI care and addiction treatment, conditions that often intersect, without patients managing two separate care relationships.

A safety-net rural health clinic about 9 miles from Evergreen. Sliding-scale STD testing and care are typical here, call ahead to confirm the exact panel and pricing.

Mercy in Lebanon operates within a hospital-affiliated clinical infrastructure, meaning STI care (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, rapid and conventional HIV, plus hepatitis A, B, and C) sits inside a framework built for follow-through. Appointments are required; fees slide by income, with Medicaid and Medicare accepted, and same-visit treatment covers bacterial infections. DoxyPEP is available for prevention.
Mercy's DoxyPEP offering means a provider on staff can prescribe doxycycline, walk through the dosing protocol, one dose taken within 72 hours of exposure, and build in the follow-up monitoring that makes the regimen work safely over time. That clinical continuity, rather than a one-time script, is what the hospital setting makes possible.
Mercy carries herpes testing and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the core bacterial and HIV panel: useful for anyone without a regular provider who needs a complete picture in one appointment, or for someone paying out of pocket who can't afford to split testing across multiple visits. The sliding-scale fee structure applies to the full panel.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Laclede County, the county that includes Evergreen, compare with Missouri and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~54% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#26 of 115 Missouri counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 77% of the state
| Infection | Laclede County | Missouri | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 354.4 130 cases ▼ 29% | 498.6 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 76.3 28 cases ▼ 62% | 201.9 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 35.4 13 cases ▲ 65% | 21.5 | 15.8 |

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 Laclede County, chlamydia has risen from 291.4 to 354.4 per 100,000 (22%), gonorrhea has fallen from 152.6 to 76.3 per 100,000 (50%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.8 to 35.4 per 100,000 (1164%).

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 Laclede County.

Laclede County HIV care continuum (2023)
Laclede County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 10.6 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Laclede County residents living with HIV, 86.4% are in care · 81.8% 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 Laclede County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Evergreen draws people at different life stages, and young adults moving through their late teens into their thirties make up a real presence in the community. For this group especially, knowing where to get tested without delay or fanfare carries weight. Testing clinics and health providers in and around Evergreen listed on this page offer the straightforward access that matters when someone wants answers, no lectures, no assumptions, just clinical care. Confidentiality here works the way it should: what you disclose stays with the provider, and test results don't travel beyond the person who requested them.
That separation between your medical visit and everyday life is built into how these services operate, not an exception granted on request. The testing itself is quick, and results typically come back within days. Whether you're new to the area, between jobs, or simply want a baseline screen as part of regular health maintenance, the clinics serving Evergreen handle routine and urgent cases alike. Many offer extended hours or weekend availability, which removes the friction of trying to fit testing into an already packed schedule.
Getting there

Two things that actually depend on Missouri 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 Missouri, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Missouri 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.
