Integrity Urgent Care in Wichita Falls accepts Medicare and most insurance for STI testing and treatment, with fees applying to uninsured visits. The panel covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C, with HPV and hepatitis A vaccines on-site. Appointments are required.
Plenty of clinics can schedule you with a Spanish speaker, then hand the actual clinical conversation off to someone else entirely. At Integrity Urgent Care, Spanish is available through the care itself, so the questions, the results, and the treatment plan all move through the same language without a gap in the middle.
When a clinic tests only for the bacterial four, a herpes diagnosis or an undetected hepatitis B or C infection can sit unaddressed: meaning a second appointment somewhere else, a separate bill, and weeks of delay. Integrity Urgent Care tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard panel, so those gaps close at a single visit in Wichita Falls.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Wichita County, the county that includes Iowa Park, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~20% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#91 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 64% of the state
| Infection | Wichita County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 366.4 477 cases ▼ 26% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 142.1 185 cases ▼ 19% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 22.3 29 cases ▲ 49% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 26.1 34 cases ▼ 1% | 26.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 35.3 46 cases ▼ 20% | 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 Wichita County, chlamydia has fallen from 438.3 to 366.4 per 100,000 (16%), gonorrhea has fallen from 182.5 to 142.1 per 100,000 (22%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 3.1 to 22.3 per 100,000 (619%).

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 Wichita County.
Local HIV snapshot
Wichita County HIV care continuum (2023)
Wichita County recorded 6.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Wichita County residents living with HIV, 75.4% are in care · 60.2% 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 Wichita County tests for syphilis.

Testing sites listed on this page in and around Iowa Park offer that privacy without requiring you to explain yourself or travel far from home.
The clinics and providers serving Iowa Park understand that people here value discretion and straightforward care.

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.
