Pride Family Medicine in Cedar Park screens for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, and HIV on a fee-based structure that accepts Medicare and most insurance, with appointments required and same-visit treatment available for bacterial infections.
Without on-site language support, an STI diagnosis can stall: prescriptions go unfilled, follow-up questions go unasked, and care quietly lapses. Pride Family Medicine in Cedar Park integrates interpretation services directly into the appointment, so nothing critical gets lost between the provider's explanation and the patient's next step.
Pride Family Medicine in Cedar Park prescribes and manages PrEP and PEP as part of its regular care, which means patients can establish continuous HIV prevention alongside their other health needs rather than juggling separate providers.
Pride Family Medicine in Cedar Park runs herpes testing as part of its STI panel: a standing capability that serves anyone without a regular provider who wants a thorough picture, or anyone paying out of pocket who needs results that actually answer the question they came in with.

Baylor Scott & White Health in Austin requires an appointment and covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C on a fee-based model with Medicare and insurance accepted; bacterial infections are treated the same visit, and PrEP is available on-site.
Many testing-only clinics leave prevention management to a separate provider. Baylor Scott & White Health in Austin writes and manages both PrEP and PEP in the same clinical setting where testing happens, so prevention and care stay with one team rather than splitting across appointments.
When hepatitis C is detected at Baylor Scott & White Health in Austin, the clinic's own providers prescribe direct-acting antivirals and carry the monitoring through to clearance: meaning lab follow-up, dosing adjustments, and sustained virologic response checks are managed by the same clinical staff who ran the initial test.
The panel at Baylor Scott & White Health in Austin includes herpes and both hepatitis B and C alongside the four core STIs, which means a single visit can surface infections that would otherwise go undetected until symptoms appeared or a separate specialist ordered additional labs.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Travis County, the county that includes Jonestown, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~14% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#9 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 96% of the state
| Infection | Travis County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 681.7 9,100 cases ▲ 39% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 347.9 4,644 cases ▲ 97% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 29.8 398 cases ▲ 99% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 33 440 cases ▲ 25% | 26.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 49.7 663 cases ▲ 12% | 44.3 | 29.5 |
Rates per 100,000 population, 2023. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis). Population figures: U.S. Census Bureau ACS. These figures are the latest available surveillance estimates. Bars are scaled to the highest rate shown.
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 Travis County, chlamydia has risen from 614.3 to 681.7 per 100,000 (11%), gonorrhea has risen from 316.8 to 347.9 per 100,000 (10%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 20.5 to 29.8 per 100,000 (45%).

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 Travis County.
Local HIV snapshot
Federal priority area: Travis 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.
Travis County HIV care continuum (2023)
Travis County recorded 18.2 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Travis County residents living with HIV, 86.7% know their status · 84% are in care · 72.1% 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 Travis County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Highway 183 cuts through the routines of most Jonestown households faster than clinic visits tend to fit into them, and for a community where the nearest testing option listed on this page requires a deliberate drive, that distance is the first thing to plan around. The overwhelming majority of residents here own their homes, many carrying mortgages alongside the other fixed costs of a settled life, which means discretionary time and budget get allocated carefully. A typical rent for those who don't own is modest by Austin-area standards, but the point is the same: people here are managing real household budgets, and a screening visit that demands a half-day away from work or family competes with a lot. That calculus matters most for younger adults still in the earlier, more socially fluid stretch of life: the portion of Jonestown's population moving through their late teens and twenties, when STI transmission runs highest and testing most often gets postponed rather than skipped outright.
Getting ahead of that means finding an appointment that doesn't require sacrificing a full workday, especially with labor-force participation running below majority of working-age adults. Nearly seven in ten adult residents here are married, and average households run close to three people. Meaning a positive result, caught late, rarely stays a solo concern. Routine screening is simply how you protect the people you live with.
Getting there
At 7.28/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Jonestown 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.
