West Virginia University Medicine brings academic medical infrastructure to STI care in Morgantown, covering the full panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, rapid and conventional HIV, and all three hepatitis strains) on a sliding-scale fee, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and appointments required. Ryan White funding anchors HIV care from first test through long-term management.
Ryan White funding at WVU Medicine means someone without a regular HIV provider, or without the means to sustain one, has a single place that handles testing, medical treatment, and ongoing adherence counseling. The program exists precisely for people whose coverage or circumstances would otherwise leave gaps between a diagnosis and consistent care.
WVU Medicine prescribes and manages both PrEP and PEP on-site, which matters most for someone who lacks a primary care provider to write and monitor a PrEP prescription, or who needs PEP access without hunting for a clinic that handles it. Uninsured patients have a dedicated PrEP pathway so cost doesn't stall the medication.
WVU Medicine treats hepatitis C on-site from diagnosis through cure, which means a reactive antibody test leads directly into a treatment plan rather than to a separate specialist appointment that may take months to land. For patients managing multiple infections, hepatitis B or HIV alongside hep C, all three treatment tracks are available within the same system.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Monongalia County, the county that includes Fieldcrest, compare with West Virginia and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~58% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#3 of 55 West Virginia counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Monongalia County | West Virginia | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 377.8 407 cases ▲ 52% | 249 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 107.7 116 cases ▲ 97% | 54.7 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 9.3 10 cases ▼ 15% | 10.9 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 7.4 8 cases ▲ 21% | 6.1 | 16 |

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 Monongalia County, chlamydia has fallen from 506.5 to 377.8 per 100,000 (25%), gonorrhea has risen from 81.3 to 107.7 per 100,000 (32%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 11.3 to 9.3 per 100,000 (18%).

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 Monongalia County.
Local HIV snapshot
Monongalia County HIV care continuum (2023)
Monongalia County recorded 7.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.5 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Monongalia County residents living with HIV, 79.8% are in care · 72.9% 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 Monongalia County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Copper Beech hums with the kind of transient energy that defines so much of Fieldcrest: lease renewals every August, neighbors who arrive and move on, small households where two people share a place and split costs that still stretch against a nearly thousand-dollar monthly rent. That churn matters for sexual health: when most residents rent rather than own, and when a large share of households are unmarried adults navigating new relationships, the social conditions that make routine STI screening sensible are consistently present. Younger adults here, people in their late teens and twenties forming connections in a city where they outnumber almost any other demographic, have real reasons to test regularly, and real obstacles that get in the way. The biggest of those obstacles is geography.
None of which pairs easily with a labor force where a notable share of adults are already outside traditional employment and managing unpredictable daily rhythms. Testing options are listed on this page, which is a genuine asset. Scanning them by distance and hours before committing makes it easier to find one that actually fits around a shift, a class, or a day when the car is available, and in Fieldcrest, that practical match is often the whole story.
Getting there
At 9.46/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Fieldcrest generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

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