How to read these listings

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.

Rated 3.1 out of 5 from 60 reviews

Main Line Health in Bryn Mawr requires an appointment, and that single scheduled visit covers testing for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and TB: with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and HPV and hepatitis vaccines on-site.

Read full overview

Prevention Prescriptions Written at This Clinic

Prevention prescribing gets dropped from many STI clinic rosters: the testing happens, but PrEP and PEP require a separate provider visit somewhere else. Main Line Health writes both, keeping HIV prevention fully in-house alongside the testing and treatment that surrounds it.

Hepatitis C Treatment Runs Through This Clinic

Hepatitis C treatment is delivered on-site at Main Line Health, which means a reactive antibody result doesn't stall out at the diagnostic stage. The clinical relationship that confirmed the infection is the same one that manages the cure.

Nine-Pathogen Panel Includes Herpes and Both Hepatitis Strains

The testing menu at Main Line Health runs to nine pathogens (HIV by rapid and conventional method, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB) which means a single appointment can surface infections that a four-pathogen panel would leave undetected.

Rated 3.1 out of 5 from 36 reviews

Bryn Mawr Medical Specialist Associates tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB on a fee-based, insurance- and Medicare-accepted model; appointments are required, and bacterial STIs can be treated the same visit.

Read full overview

Tenofovir-Based PrEP Prescribed and Monitored Here

Bryn Mawr Medical Specialist Associates prescribes PrEP, including tenofovir-based regimens, and manages PEP entirely within the practice. Ongoing PrEP monitoring, including the required HIV and kidney-function labs, happens at the same site as the prescription, keeping the clinical relationship intact rather than split across providers.

On-Site Hepatitis C Care Beyond the Antibody Test

For anyone without a specialist on file, whether paying out of pocket or working through insurance, the practice's standing capacity to treat hepatitis C on-site is the practical difference between a diagnosis that moves forward and one that stalls. Bryn Mawr Medical Specialist Associates carries care from the hepatitis C test through active treatment without transferring patients to another provider.

Hepatitis B and C Added to the Standard Four

Gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV cover the core, but hepatitis B and C frequently go untested at clinics that stop there. Bryn Mawr Medical Specialist Associates runs both hepatitis tests alongside the standard panel, so a single visit surfaces infections that a narrower screen would miss entirely.

Rated 3.3 out of 5 from 9 reviews

Delaware Valley ID Associates in Wynnewood runs by appointment and brings infectious disease specialization to bear on every visit: covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB, with bacterial infections treated same-visit and fees billed to insurance or set on a sliding scale.

Read full overview

Herpes and Hepatitis Fill Out the Panel

Clinics built around the core four (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV) leave herpes and hepatitis C invisible until symptoms force the question. Delaware Valley ID Associates tests for both, alongside hepatitis B and TB, so infections that typically wait for a specialist referral get caught in the same appointment.

Hepatitis C Diagnosed and Treated in One Practice

A positive hepatitis C result that sends you to a separate gastroenterologist or liver specialist means weeks of scheduling, repeated intake, and a treatment clock that keeps running. At Delaware Valley ID Associates, the prescribing, monitoring, and antiviral management happen within the same infectious disease practice that ran the initial test.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed and Monitored Here

Both PrEP and PEP are prescribed and followed by infectious disease physicians at Delaware Valley ID Associates, the same specialists who manage HIV treatment, meaning the dosing schedule, required HIV and kidney-function labs, and any follow-up adjustments are handled within a single clinical relationship rather than split across providers.

ChesPenn Health Services in Upper Darby runs every STI test (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB) at no fee, with sliding-scale and insurance options available; same-visit treatment for bacterial infections; appointment required.

No Bill Arrives After Treatment Here

When cost follows a diagnosis, people delay treatment, skip follow-up, or absorb the infection gap silently. At ChesPenn Health Services, every service (testing, counseling, treatment) is provided at no fee, closing that gap before it opens.

Spanish-Language Care Without the Gap

A missed nuance in a treatment explanation or a misunderstood dosing instruction can mean an infection that doesn't clear. ChesPenn Health Services delivers care directly in Spanish, so the clinical conversation (symptoms, medications, next steps) lands with full precision.

ChesPenn Health Services prescribes and manages both PrEP and PEP, including the required HIV and kidney-function monitoring that sustains a PrEP prescription, keeping prevention continuous within one practice rather than spread across disconnected providers.

Planned Parenthood Southeastern Pennsylvania in Upper Darby tests for gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, chlamydia, and HIV, treating bacterial infections the same visit, with sliding-scale fees accepted alongside Medicaid and insurance. Appointments are required, and Spanish-language care is available on-site.

Read full overview

Spanish Spoken, Care Delivered Without Relay

Planned Parenthood Southeastern Pennsylvania carries Spanish-language care directly into the clinical encounter, not patched through an outside service. For anyone whose clearest thinking happens in Spanish, that means STI results, treatment options, and prevention conversations land with full precision the first time.

Minor Patients Keep Their Care Confidential Here

Without Title X standing, a minor seeking STI care or family planning often walks away with instructions to return with a guardian. A gap that can stretch weeks. Planned Parenthood Southeastern Pennsylvania holds that Title X designation, meaning legally confidential services for minors are delivered at this clinic, not deferred.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Available at One Clinic

Planned Parenthood Southeastern Pennsylvania prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP under one roof, which means a patient building a prevention strategy doesn't have to split care across separate providers or lose continuity between the medications they're combining.

Spectrum Health Services in Philadelphia tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, on a sliding-scale fee open to all, by appointment, with French and Spanish spoken on staff.

Read full overview

French and Spanish Spoken at Every Appointment

Many clinics hand off language access to a patched-in service that sits between the patient and the provider. At Spectrum Health Services in Philadelphia, French and Spanish are spoken directly by staff, and interpretation is available for other languages. Meaning the clinical conversation stays in the room, not on a screen.

Spectrum Health Services in Philadelphia prescribes both PrEP and PEP on-site. That means a single appointment can cover testing, a prevention-medication evaluation, and a prescription. Keeping the path from risk assessment to medication short.

Hepatitis C Treatment Completed Here, Start to Finish

When hepatitis C treatment requires a specialist referral, the gap between diagnosis and a cure can stretch into months. Time the virus keeps accumulating damage. Spectrum Health Services in Philadelphia treats hepatitis C on-site, so a positive antibody test leads directly into antiviral management without a second provider to track down.

STDs & HIV in Delaware County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in Delaware County, the county that includes Haverford, compare with Pennsylvania and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~28% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.

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.

Delaware County recorded 9.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 8.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Delaware County residents living with HIV, 78.6% are in care · 64.9% 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.

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 Delaware County tests for syphilis.

Local context

About Haverford, PA

Havertown carries the feel of a place that has largely settled in: most households here own their homes, more than half of adults are married, and families tend to be larger than the regional average. That stability shapes daily life along West Darby Road and around Narbrook Park in ways that are genuinely appealing, but it can also mean that routine health care, including STI screening, gets quietly absorbed into a packed family calendar rather than treated as its own standing appointment. That matters because a meaningful share of Haverford's residents are young adults, people in their late teens and twenties who are at the highest statistical risk for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and other infections that routinely go unnoticed without a test.

Delaware County's STI counts confirm the pattern holds locally. With most households carrying a mortgage rather than a month-to-month lease, cost is less often the obstacle than time and scheduling: two working adults, school pickups, and a commute along North Eagle Road leave narrow windows for anything that requires a dedicated trip. For residents near Penn Wynne, checking the nearest listed clinic against the route you already drive toward Ardmore is the simplest place to start.

Confidentiality & consent in Pennsylvania Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania, 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)

Pennsylvania 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.
