In Tarrant County, reported gonorrhea runs about 15% higher than the US average. For a one-time concern or regular check-ups in Hurst, Texas, you have options: local clinics to get support or at-home kits for your convenience. The list below covers both types for your choice.
Available testing centers
12 testing options are listed for Hurst, TX. The nearest, Labcorp, is about 2.0 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.

Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas in Bedford runs by appointment, so each visit is structured around you: covering chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis C testing, same-visit bacterial treatment, and sliding-scale fees for everyone.
Spanish is a working language of care at this Bedford location, not a service patched in by request. For other languages, interpretation services are available directly: meaning clinical conversations about test results, treatment plans, and prevention options happen in the language the visit actually requires.
Title X federal designation makes confidential family planning services for minors a legal requirement at this clinic, not a policy choice. That means a minor's visit, test results, and any contraceptive or STI services are protected from disclosure to guardians. Built into the program's governing statute, not left to staff discretion.
Splitting HIV prevention from bacterial STI prevention across separate providers means gaps in coverage and delays in prescriptions. Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas in Bedford prescribes PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP for doxycycline-based bacterial STI prevention. All three under one clinical roof, managed through the same prescribing relationship.

Lighthouse Family Medicine in Colleyville runs STI care on an appointment basis, pairing a full bacterial-and-viral panel with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and sliding-scale fees that apply to everyone. PrEP and PEP available for ongoing and post-exposure prevention.
Plenty of testing-focused clinics hand off prevention prescribing to a separate provider. At Lighthouse Family Medicine, both PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention and PEP are managed in-house. Meaning the same appointment that catches an infection can also start the medication that prevents one.
Lighthouse Family Medicine tests for herpes and all three hepatitis strains alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, so a single visit produces a genuinely complete picture rather than one that leaves common infections unexamined until symptoms force a second appointment.

Collins Family Planning Clinic in Fort Worth covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and HIV on a sliding-scale fee, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections when needed, and all of it, including counseling, in Spanish.
Plenty of testing sites draw the line at gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Herpes and hepatitis land on a separate referral track, if they're addressed at all. Collins Family Planning Clinic tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C in the same appointment, no secondary visit required.
Without Title X designation, a minor seeking family planning or STI care often hits a wall: services that require parental consent, or a referral to a separate facility that may or may not have availability. Collins Family Planning Clinic's Title X status means those services, including legally confidential care for minors, are delivered here, in the same appointment.
Most clinics handle Spanish through an intermediary: a third party on a call, a staff member pulled from another role, a lag between question and answer that flattens the conversation. At Collins Family Planning Clinic in Fort Worth, Spanish is a primary language of care, meaning counseling, history-taking, and treatment discussion happen directly, without the filter.

North Texas Area Community Health Centers in Arlington tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C on a sliding-scale fee that applies to everyone, with Medicare and insurance also accepted. Appointments are required, and bacterial STIs are treated the same visit.
Plenty of STI testing sites stop at the test itself, leaving prevention prescribing to primary care providers who may be harder to reach. North Texas Area Community Health Centers in Arlington writes PrEP and PEP prescriptions on-site, so the path from a negative result to ongoing protection doesn't require a second provider.
The panel at North Texas Area Community Health Centers in Arlington includes hepatitis C alongside HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. Meaning a single visit surfaces a chronic viral infection that often goes undetected until it has caused significant liver damage.

Health 4u Clinic in Fort Worth tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis C on a sliding-scale structure that bottoms out at no fee, with HPV and hepatitis A and B vaccines also available; appointments are required, and bacterial infections can be treated the same visit.
Health 4u Clinic runs a six-test panel that adds herpes and hepatitis C to the gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV baseline. Hepatitis C is diagnosed and managed directly through the clinic, no separate referral chain, and herpes typing is handled in the same appointment.
Health 4u Clinic structures its entire operation (testing, vaccines, STI treatment, prevention counseling) under a sliding-scale schedule with a hard floor of no charge. The sliding scale is not reserved for a subset of services; it governs every clinical encounter the clinic provides, and donations are accepted rather than required.

Aoc in Fort Worth runs on a no-fee model, covering every service it offers at no cost to patients. Walk in without an appointment for rapid or conventional HIV testing, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis A, B, and C: same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs, PrEP, and PEP included.
When a fee becomes the reason care gets deferred (the gonorrhea that goes untreated another week, the follow-up that never happens) that gap is the real risk. At Aoc, nothing on the menu carries a charge: testing, treatment, PrEP, PEP, counseling, all of it, no bill at the end.
Missing a diagnosis because a language barrier distorted a question about symptoms, or a treatment instruction didn't land, is a concrete harm. Aoc delivers care in American Sign Language, Spanish, and French, with interpretation services for other languages, so nothing critical gets lost between provider and patient.
Ryan White funding at Aoc means HIV care doesn't stop at a positive result, it structures what comes next. Clinicians prescribe and monitor antiretroviral therapy, track viral load, and manage long-term adherence, with medication adherence counseling staffed as a standing part of the care model.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Tarrant County, the county that includes Hurst, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~26% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#38 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 85% of the state
| Infection | Tarrant County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 507.1 11,069 cases ▲ 3% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 205.9 4,494 cases ▲ 17% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 15.1 330 cases ▲ 1% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 22.7 496 cases ▼ 14% | 26.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 31.7 691 cases ▼ 28% | 44.3 | 29.5 |

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 Tarrant County, chlamydia has risen from 401.1 to 507.1 per 100,000 (26%), gonorrhea has risen from 191.8 to 205.9 per 100,000 (7%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 12.9 to 15.1 per 100,000 (17%).

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 Tarrant County.
Local HIV snapshot
Federal priority area: Tarrant County is one of 48 U.S. counties prioritized under the Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative: targeted federal funding to expand local HIV testing, PrEP, and prevention.
Tarrant County HIV care continuum (2023)
Tarrant County recorded 18.7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Tarrant County residents living with HIV, 78.6% know their status · 81.7% are in care · 71.6% 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 Tarrant County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Hurst looks, at first pass, like a settled place: most households here own their homes, families run larger than the national average, and a majority of adults are married. That stability is real. What it can obscure is that nearly two in five households still rent, with typical monthly rents that leave little cushion, and more than a third of working-age residents aren't in the labor force at all: caregiving, disability, irregular shifts, or something else entirely pulling them out of the conventional nine-to-five. For that slice of Hurst, a weekday clinic appointment isn't a minor inconvenience; it's a genuine scheduling puzzle.
Geography adds its own layer. Getting anywhere here means a car and a window of time on the Airport Freeway or Precinct Line Road, there's no walking to a clinic from the neighborhoods near Colleyville Plaza or Valentine Park. Younger adults in their late teens and twenties, who account for a disproportionate share of new STI diagnoses countywide, often face the sharpest combination of those pressures: renting at $1,080 a month, stretching a paycheck, and working hours that don't flex easily. That's exactly why the options listed on this page matter: some offer evening or weekend hours, low-cost visits, or locations closer to Central Park and Hurst Community Park, where the geography at least starts to work in your favor.
Getting there
At 10.27/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Hurst generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Source: Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, CMS, 2025 rates (data.cms.gov). Reference rate for the lab assay only: a clinic visit, sample collection, or a bundled multi-test panel may cost more. Medicaid and most insurers cover STD screening at no out-of-pocket cost.
Two things that actually depend on Texas 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 Texas, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Texas 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.
