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.

Every Service Runs on Zero Dollars
All services at Northwell Health in Huntington carry no charge, which means the same appointment that confirms a diagnosis also delivers treatment, without a separate billing hurdle standing between the two.
Spanish-Language Care Is Staffed, Not Patched
Spanish-language services at Northwell Health in Huntington are integrated into clinical operations: counseling, treatment instruction, and medication adherence education are conducted directly in Spanish, so the clinical relationship itself runs in that language without intermediary steps.
Hepatitis C Treatment Happens Here, Start to Finish
Northwell Health in Huntington treats hepatitis C on-site, which means a confirmed diagnosis moves directly into a managed treatment plan within the same clinical relationship rather than opening a separate search for a specialist.
Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic in Huntington covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and rapid HIV testing on a sliding-scale fee open to everyone, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and no appointment required, and staff serve patients in Spanish with broader interpretation available.

Spanish Spoken Here, Interpretation Beyond That
Many clinics hand off non-English communication to an outside line, which means critical nuance (dosing instructions, exposure questions, follow-up timing) gets filtered through a stranger on a call. At Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic in Huntington, Spanish is spoken directly by staff, and interpretation services extend the same directness to other languages.
Title X Covers Minors With Legal Confidentiality
Without Title X, a minor seeking STI care can face a bill routed to a parent's insurance, effectively ending confidentiality before it begins. Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic holds Title X designation, which means its family planning services, including STI testing and treatment, are legally confidential for minors, not just practically so.
PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed at One Clinic
Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic in Huntington prescribes PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP, the doxycycline regimen shown to reduce bacterial STI acquisition, all from the same clinical team, which means prevention planning doesn't require coordinating across separate providers.

Northwell Health-GoHealth Urgent Care in Huntington runs STI testing through urgent-care infrastructure, pairing walk-in availability with a full panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C) plus same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and sliding-scale fees. Interpretation services are available for non-English speakers.

Herpes and Hepatitis A, B, C on the Panel
Gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV are the baseline; Northwell Health-GoHealth Urgent Care in Huntington adds herpes, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C to the same visit. That broader scope means a single appointment can surface infections that a narrower panel would leave undetected and unaddressed.
Northwell Health-GoHealth Urgent Care in Huntington has interpretation services available for non-English languages, which means test results, treatment instructions, and medication adherence counseling are communicated directly, not summarized through a workaround, for patients who don't primarily use English.

Community Care RX
No ratings yet
Community Care RX in Plainview requires an appointment, so scheduling ahead means arriving to a focused visit that covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C: with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and care delivered in Chinese and Spanish.
Read full overviewShow less
Hepatitis C Diagnosed and Treated at Community Care RX
A hepatitis C diagnosis that sends you to a separate specialist means weeks of delay before treatment begins, a gap that allows liver damage to quietly continue. Community Care RX in Plainview closes that gap by treating hepatitis C on-site, so a positive result moves directly into a care plan without an intervening handoff.
PrEP and PEP Available, With Ongoing HIV Management
Community Care RX in Plainview prescribes both PrEP and PEP, which means prevention stays consistent rather than interrupted by gaps in access, and for patients already living with HIV, medical treatment continues at the same clinic.
Chinese and Spanish Spoken by Staff, Not Sourced Elsewhere
Many clinics handle non-English communication through workarounds that keep a patient at arm's length from the person making care decisions. At Community Care RX in Plainview, Chinese and Spanish are spoken directly in the clinical encounter, so medication adherence counseling, diagnosis, and treatment all happen in the language a patient uses to think about their own health.
Sun River Health in Wyandanch runs on a sliding-scale fee accepted by Medicaid, Medicare, and most insurance, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB. With same-visit treatment for bacterial infections. Appointments are required.

Direct Care in ASL, Spanish, and More
Deaf patients and those whose primary language is Spanish have direct clinical communication at Sun River Health, not routed through add-on services. For anyone whose clearest thinking happens in a language other than English, that directness shapes every part of the visit, from intake through treatment decisions.
Ryan White Funds the Full HIV Care Continuum
Ryan White Program funding at Sun River Health supports HIV care as a continuous clinical relationship: antiretroviral prescribing, viral load monitoring, and medication adherence counseling are staffed and sustained on-site. A patient isn't handed off once a diagnosis is made, the same clinic manages treatment over time.
Sun River Health prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, which means the follow-up labs and prescription renewals that make PrEP effective long-term stay within the same practice rather than requiring a separate provider relationship.

Spanish and Interpretation Services Built Into Every Appointment
CEC Health Care conducts visits in Spanish and offers interpretation services for additional languages, meaning the clinical conversation (exposure history, medication instructions, follow-up planning) happens in the language a person speaks at home. For anyone navigating a sliding-scale payment or managing a new prescription, that clarity from the first appointment forward is the difference between a plan that holds and one that doesn't.
PrEP and PEP Prescribed On-Site in Hauppauge
CEC Health Care prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, with PrEP available to uninsured patients through dedicated coverage. Meaning the medication itself, not just the referral, is accessible regardless of insurance status. Ongoing PrEP management, including the required HIV and kidney-function monitoring, is handled within the same practice.
Herpes and Full Hepatitis Panel Alongside the Standard Four
For anyone without a regular primary-care provider, CEC Health Care's panel matters because herpes testing and hepatitis A, B, and C screening sit alongside the gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV workup. Conditions that often go unasked-about elsewhere. One sliding-scale appointment covers the infections most likely to be missed in a shorter panel.

Long Island Crisis Center in Deer Park runs on scheduled appointments and covers rapid HIV and syphilis testing alongside HIV counseling, PrEP, and PEP. With every one of those services provided at no fee.
Read full overviewShow less
Zero Cost Across Every Service Offered
Long Island Crisis Center charges nothing: not for the rapid HIV test, not for syphilis screening, not for PrEP or PEP. That means the full scope of what the clinic offers stays available regardless of whether a patient arrives insured, underinsured, or without coverage.
Spanish-Speaking Staff on Site, Not on Call
Spanish-language care at Long Island Crisis Center is handled through staff and on-site interpretation: meaning HIV counseling, medication adherence education, and prevention conversations happen in Spanish directly, without routing through an external service or scheduling around availability.
Prevention Prescriptions Stay in One Place
Without a clinic that prescribes both PrEP and PEP in-house, a patient often leaves with a referral and loses days tracking down a prescriber willing to take them. Long Island Crisis Center closes that gap, both medications are prescribed and managed on site, keeping prevention continuous rather than contingent.

Prevention Prescriptions Without a Second Stop
Chasing prevention medication across multiple providers means gaps: unfilled prescriptions, delayed starts, and out-of-pocket detours between offices. Simple Healthcare prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP in the same appointment where your testing happens, so none of those options stall in transit.
Simple Healthcare treats hepatitis C on-site, which means a confirmed diagnosis moves directly into a managed treatment plan. Shortening the window between knowing and clearing the infection.
Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Alongside the Core Panel
Simple Healthcare's clinical panel is built to test for herpes simplex and hepatitis A, B, and C in addition to the standard four bacterial and viral STIs: each ordered, processed, and interpreted by the same on-site staff managing your full care.
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 less than a mile away; if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Huntington, 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 (opens in a new tab) 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.

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 Suffolk County tests for syphilis.

Huntington Station draws a younger, more transient slice of this largely owner-occupied town. Renters navigating monthly costs well above national norms in a community where most households have long since put down roots. That tenure split shapes daily life in ways that matter for health decisions: people renting here tend to be earlier in their careers, more likely to be in the relationship-forming years when STI exposure is highest, and more likely to be watching every discretionary dollar. The workforce here is broadly employed and skewed toward higher earners, which sounds like an advantage, but full schedules cut both ways.
When most adults in a household are working and the average home holds more than three people, carving out a weekday afternoon for a clinic visit takes genuine planning, especially along a corridor like NY 110 where driving is essentially the only option and everything takes longer than it looks on a map. Younger adults in Huntington Station and South Huntington, in particular, may find that distance and car-dependency are the real obstacles, not cost or awareness. The clinics listed on this page represent real range (some near New York Avenue, others reachable via East Jericho Turnpike) so the practical question becomes which one fits a commute rather than requiring a separate trip entirely.

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