Rated 5 out of 5 from 25 reviews

Midway Specialty Care Center in Miami runs rapid and conventional HIV testing alongside hepatitis A, B, and C, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs, on a sliding-scale fee that applies to everyone, by appointment.

Read full overview

Every Service Carries a Zero Balance

A cost that stops treatment mid-course leaves an infection managed in pieces. At Midway Specialty Care Center, every service (testing, STI treatment, HIV/AIDS medical care, hepatitis C treatment, PrEP, PEP, DoxyPEP) is provided at no fee, so nothing in the care plan gets deferred because of what it costs.

Haitian Creole and Spanish Spoken Directly in Care

When a patient can't fully express symptoms or dosing concerns, gaps open up. In diagnosis, in adherence, in follow-through. Midway Specialty Care Center in Miami delivers care directly in Haitian Creole and Spanish, with interpretation available for additional languages, so those gaps don't form in the first place.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed On-Site

Midway Specialty Care Center prescribes all three frontline prevention medications: daily oral PrEP for ongoing HIV protection, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP, doxycycline taken after potential bacterial STI exposure, each with the medication adherence education to sustain them.

CAN Community Health

No ratings yet

CAN Community Health in Miami Beach delivers rapid and conventional HIV testing, a full bacterial STI panel with same-visit treatment for gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis, plus PrEP and DoxyPEP on a sliding-scale fee. All services provided at no fee.

Read full overview

When cost splits the decision between getting treated and walking away, the gap between a diagnosis and resolved care widens fast. At CAN Community Health, every service (testing, treatment, PrEP, DoxyPEP, vaccines) is provided at no fee, so nothing interrupts care between a positive result and a completed prescription.

Full Spanish-Language Care, Not Just Intake

CAN Community Health conducts care in Spanish across the full visit, from test counseling through medication adherence education, which means someone managing PrEP adherence or navigating hepatitis B treatment isn't parsing clinical instructions in a second language at the moment precision matters most.

Ryan White Funds HIV Care From First Test Onward

CAN Community Health is Ryan White-funded, covering HIV testing through ongoing medical treatment and medication adherence counseling in a single care relationship, so a new HIV diagnosis doesn't require rebuilding trust or continuity with a different provider to access managed care.

Miami Beach Community Health Center runs the full bacterial and viral panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, hepatitis A, B, and C, herpes, and rapid or conventional HIV) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections on a sliding-scale fee, no appointment required, with staff fluent in Spanish, Haitian Creole, and American Sign Language.

Spanish, Haitian Creole, and ASL on Staff

Miami Beach Community Health Center has staff who speak Spanish, Haitian Creole, and American Sign Language, with additional interpretation available for other languages, which means the clinical conversation about symptoms, treatment, and follow-up happens directly, without a relay.

HIV Testing Leads to Treatment at the Same Address

Many clinics test for HIV and stop there, handing continuity to someone else. Miami Beach Community Health Center carries Ryan White funding, so ongoing HIV medical management, not just the test, is part of what the clinic itself delivers.

PrEP and PEP Without a Separate Specialist Visit

Chasing a PrEP prescription across multiple providers, or losing days tracking down PEP after an exposure, is a real gap that leaves prevention incomplete. Miami Beach Community Health Center prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, including PrEP coverage for uninsured patients, closing that gap at the source.

How reported STI rates in Miami-Dade County, the county that includes Key Biscayne, compare with Florida and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~17% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.

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.

Miami-Dade County recorded 44.3 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Miami-Dade County residents living with HIV, 92% know their status · 68.9% are in care · 60.5% 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.

Pregnant or planning to be? 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 Miami-Dade County tests for syphilis.

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

Two things that actually depend on Florida 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 Florida, 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)

Florida 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.
