Rated 4.5 out of 5 from 5 reviews

Healthfirst Network in Stevens Point runs on a sliding-scale fee structure, accepting Medicaid and private insurance, with the full panel (HIV (rapid and conventional), syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C) available by appointment.

Read full overview Show less

Herpes and Hepatitis Tested Where You Already Are

A herpes or hepatitis diagnosis delayed is often a hepatitis or herpes infection spreading, and the cost of a second clinic visit, a second co-pay, and a second intake adds up fast. At Healthfirst Network, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C testing happen at the same appointment as the rest of your panel, closing that gap before it opens.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed Under One Provider

Healthfirst Network prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP, which means a patient's full prevention strategy (ongoing HIV pre-exposure coverage, post-exposure response, and bacterial STI prevention after sex) can be managed and adjusted by clinicians who already know their history.

Care Conducted in Your Language, Not Relayed Through One

Many clinics leave non-English speakers to navigate care through a chain of intermediaries, a front-desk call, a patched connection, a delay. Healthfirst Network provides interpretation services directly within the visit, so clinical conversations about symptoms, treatment, and prevention move at the pace of care, not around it.

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.

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 Portage County tests for syphilis.

About Junction City, WI

Junction City's economy turns on manufacturing, forestry work, and the seasonal rhythms that come with proximity to Little Bear Hemlocks State Natural Area: jobs that keep people moving, stretched across shifts and seasons.

Confidential STI screening in and around Junction City listed on this page is designed to work with that reality: quick appointments, straightforward results, no delays that pile up alongside everything else. Young adults in their late teens through their thirties make up a significant share of Junction City's population, and many are at the life stage when routine screening catches things early and prevents them from becoming problems. Testing is available without judgment, and what you learn stays private.

Not because the clinics are hiding anything, but because your health record is yours alone. The testing sites serving Junction City offer the kind of straightforward care that fits a town where people value directness. Whether you're due for a routine check or have a specific concern, the providers listed here know how to move fast without cutting corners. Getting tested is one of the clearest ways to know your status and move forward with certainty.

Confidentiality & consent in Wisconsin

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin, 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)

Wisconsin 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.
