Fees & payment
La Clinica in Medford runs on a sliding-scale fee and accepts Medicaid and private insurance, covering HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB: with STI treatment, PrEP, PEP, and HPV and hepatitis vaccines available by appointment, with services in Spanish.
Many clinics treat language as a logistical afterthought, something handled at the margins of a visit rather than woven into it. La Clinica conducts care directly in Spanish, with interpretation available for other languages, so the conversation between patient and provider carries the same precision regardless of which language it happens in.
La Clinica prescribes both PrEP, the daily oral regimen that blocks HIV acquisition, and PEP, the post-exposure course that must begin promptly. Having both available at one prescribing location means monitoring, refills, and follow-up testing stay with the same clinical team rather than splitting across separate providers.
For anyone without a specialist on their care team, La Clinica's on-site hepatitis C treatment is the practical answer: the clinic doesn't stop at confirming infection and sending you out. Direct-acting antivirals and the clinical oversight behind them are available here, making La Clinica a full treatment destination for a curable but often under-treated disease.

Planned Parenthood of Medford tests for gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, chlamydia, and HIV on a sliding-scale fee with appointments required; bacterial infections are treated the same visit, and HPV vaccination rounds out the standard panel.
Live interpretation is available for non-English languages at Planned Parenthood of Medford, which means a patient's history, results, and treatment plan are communicated directly. Not summarized after the fact.
As a Title X family planning site, Planned Parenthood of Medford is legally required to keep services for minors confidential. Not as a policy choice, but as a federal program obligation. That distinction shapes what can and cannot be disclosed to a parent or guardian.
Many prevention-focused clinics prescribe PrEP and leave bacterial STI prevention unaddressed. Planned Parenthood of Medford carries DoxyPEP alongside both PrEP and PEP, covering HIV and bacterial exposure risk through a single prescribing relationship.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Jackson County, the county that includes Jacksonville, compare with Oregon and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~16% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#15 of 36 Oregon counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 58% of the state
| Infection | Jackson County | Oregon | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 280.8 620 cases ▼ 23% | 362.5 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 75.2 166 cases ▼ 36% | 117.2 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 8.6 19 cases ▼ 55% | 19.2 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 2.3 5 cases ▼ 76% | 9.6 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 10.9 24 cases ▼ 45% | 19.7 | 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 Jackson County, chlamydia has fallen from 327.4 to 280.8 per 100,000 (14%), gonorrhea has fallen from 140.6 to 75.2 per 100,000 (47%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 17 to 8.6 per 100,000 (49%).

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 Jackson County.
Local HIV snapshot
Jackson County HIV care continuum (2023)
Jackson County recorded 6.8 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.6 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Jackson County residents living with HIV, 84.6% are in care · 75.5% 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 Jackson County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
OR 238 bends through the heart of Jacksonville as East California Street, and reaching the nearest clinic on this page means committing to a real drive. This is a small historic town, not a medical hub, so options listed here draw from the broader region rather than from Jacksonville itself. For a town where homeownership runs high and home values push well above $400,000, that drive is manageable for many, but the four in ten residents who rent, paying over a thousand dollars a month, are balancing housing costs against every other line in the budget, which shapes how freely anyone schedules an optional health visit. Just under half the adult population is in the labor force at any given time, and with more than half of adults married and households averaging just over two people, Jacksonville skews toward settled, partnered life.
Couples who share health decisions and may or may not prioritize routine screening when nothing feels urgent. The younger adults moving through their twenties and early thirties, the years when STI rates run highest, are a smaller slice of this community than in most Oregon cities, but they're here. Near Bybee Corner, along the South Oakdale Historic District, living in rentals that already stretch a budget. The options listed on this page make that trip as short as the region allows; knowing they exist is the first step for most Jacksonville households.

Two things that actually depend on Oregon 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 Oregon, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Oregon 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.
