Arizona Pulmonary Specialists in Scottsdale requires an appointment, so visits are scheduled, and within a single one, the clinic covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B and C, and TB testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and HPV and hepatitis A and B vaccines.

Hepatitis C Diagnosed and Treated Here
Plenty of testing sites confirm a hepatitis C antibody and send patients elsewhere for the rest. Arizona Pulmonary Specialists in Scottsdale carries the full arc, antiviral treatment is delivered on-site, so a positive result doesn't open a second referral chain before care actually begins.
Hepatitis Testing Closes the Gap Basic Panels Leave
Leaving hepatitis B or C undetected means a treatable infection quietly advances, and the cost of that delay shows up in liver disease, not a missed appointment. Arizona Pulmonary Specialists includes hepatitis B and C testing alongside the standard bacterial and HIV panel, so nothing requiring treatment goes unspotted at the first visit.
PrEP and PEP Managed Through the Same Practice
Arizona Pulmonary Specialists prescribes both daily oral PrEP and PEP, meaning ongoing HIV prevention medication, including the monitoring labs PrEP requires every three months, stays within the same clinical relationship rather than fragmenting across separate providers.

Every Service Carries a Zero Balance
When cost sits between a person and follow-through (skipped treatment, a second visit that never happens, an infection that lingers) the gap is usually a bill. At Neighborhood Outreach Access to Health, every service, testing through treatment, carries no charge, so nothing interrupts the path from result to care.
ASL, Chinese, French, and Haitian Creole on Staff
Most clinics hand off non-English speakers to a remote interpretation service, workable, but a layer removed from direct communication. Neighborhood Outreach Access to Health delivers care directly in American Sign Language, Chinese, French, and Haitian Creole, keeping the conversation between patient and provider without a third voice in the room.
PrEP and PEP Available, Keeping Prevention Continuous
Neighborhood Outreach Access to Health prescribes both PrEP and PEP, which means a patient's prevention strategy, whether ongoing or time-sensitive, stays connected to the same clinic managing their testing and treatment rather than fragmenting across providers.

Mayo Clinic

Mayo Clinic in Phoenix brings its hospital-grade infrastructure to STI care, covering HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and herpes on a fee-based, insurance-accepted model. Medicaid and Medicare included. Appointments are required; bacterial infections are treated same visit. Services are available in Spanish.
Read full overviewShow less
Spanish-Language Care Across Every Service
Spanish is a working clinical language at Mayo Clinic Phoenix, not a supplemental accommodation layered onto English-primary care. That means consultations, treatment discussions, and PrEP counseling all proceed in Spanish, preserving precision where medical nuance carries real weight.
PrEP Prescribed and Managed On-Site
Mayo Clinic Phoenix maintains a direct PrEP program for anyone seeking ongoing HIV prevention, particularly useful for people without a primary care provider already equipped to prescribe and monitor it. Initiation, follow-up labs, and dosing adjustments happen within the same clinical system.
Herpes Testing Alongside the Standard Four
Beyond HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, Mayo Clinic Phoenix tests for herpes. A specific addition that changes what a single appointment can actually rule out. Because herpes frequently goes undetected without a dedicated test, its inclusion means the panel produces a materially more complete picture.
A public safety-net federally qualified health center about 13 miles from Fountain Hills. Sliding-scale STD testing and care are typical here, call ahead to confirm the exact panel and pricing.
RSG Healthcare in Phoenix accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and most insurance, with sliding-scale fees for everyone else, and tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, and hepatitis C. Bacterial infections treated same visit, by appointment.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Without a Primary Care Detour
RSG Healthcare carries PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP as standing prescribing services: meaning someone paying out of pocket with no established provider, or one who needs all three prevention tools assessed together, gets that conversation and prescription at the same appointment rather than being sent elsewhere to piece together a regimen.
Hepatitis C Treatment Prescribed and Monitored Here
When hepatitis C comes back reactive at RSG Healthcare in Phoenix, treatment doesn't leave the building. Direct-acting antivirals are prescribed and the sustained virologic response is monitored on-site, so the full treatment arc from confirmation through cure is managed by the same clinical team that ran the initial test.
Herpes and Hepatitis Round Out the Standard Panel
RSG Healthcare's panel runs to seven pathogens (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, and hepatitis C) which means a single appointment surfaces infections that a four-pathogen screen would leave undetected and clinically unaddressed.

University, in Mesa, carries federally qualified health center standing. Meaning its STI screening fees slide with your income rather than sitting at a fixed rate. Walk-ins are welcome for syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia testing, with no single price applying to everyone who comes through the door.
Banner Health in Phoenix brings hospital-system depth to STI care: gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, plus HIV, tested on a fee or insurance basis, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and appointments required. PrEP and PEP round out the prevention side.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed Where You're Already Tested
Prevention prescriptions are scarce at dedicated STI clinics, which typically test and treat but stop short of ongoing HIV prevention management. Banner Health in Phoenix handles both PrEP and PEP in the same clinical relationship that runs your panel: no separate provider to track down, no gap between diagnosis and protection.
Herpes and Hepatitis Woven Into the Standard Panel
The testing panel at Banner Health in Phoenix extends to herpes and all three hepatitis strains (A, B, and C) alongside the core four. That range means conditions that often go undetected simply because they weren't ordered get caught in the same appointment.
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 about 1 mile away, if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Fountain Hills, 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 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.

Maricopa County HIV care continuum (2023)
Maricopa County recorded 15.8 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.6 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Maricopa County residents living with HIV, 83.3% know their status · 75.1% are in care · 58.8% 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.
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 Maricopa County tests for syphilis.

Fountain Hills projects the kind of settled calm (high homeownership, a majority of households built around long-term partnerships) that can make health maintenance feel like a low-urgency errand rather than something worth calendaring. But that surface composure has a logistical underside: with barely half the adult population in the active workforce, a significant share of residents are retired or working reduced schedules, and the younger adults scattered through neighborhoods like Eagle Mountain and Firerock often carry the most time pressure of anyone here, stretching entry-level wages against rents that aren't trivial in this zip code. People in their late teens and twenties represent a small slice of Fountain Hills overall, which can create a false sense that STI risk barely registers locally. When in fact that age group accounts for the overwhelming majority of new diagnoses wherever they live. Low numbers don't equal low exposure; they just mean fewer peers talking openly about it.
East Shea Boulevard connects most of the town's livable corridors, and the clinics listed on this page are genuinely reachable, which removes the most obvious excuse for putting off a test. For a community where financial stability is the norm, cost rarely blocks the decision. Scheduling usually does. That's what makes same-week, low-paperwork appointments worth knowing about before you need them, not after.

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