Florida Department of Health in Seminole County is a public health department in Sanford, where STI care sits alongside TB management, family planning, and chronic disease programs.

Ryan White Program funding underwrites HIV services here from initial testing through sustained medical treatment, so a person who tests positive enters a supported care structure at the same clinic, without having to rebuild a care relationship somewhere new.
PrEP and PEP are both prescribed on-site, which means prevention medication can be initiated and managed within the same clinical relationship. Patients aren't handed off to find a prescriber willing to take it on.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Seminole County, the county that includes Lake Mary, compare with Florida and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~23% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#44 of 67 Florida counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 34% of the state
| Infection | Seminole County | Florida | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 340.5 1,649 cases ▼ 32% | 498.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 128.4 622 cases ▼ 38% | 206.7 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 11.2 54 cases ▼ 42% | 19.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 16.7 81 cases ▼ 33% | 25.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 17.6 85 cases ▼ 53% | 37.7 | 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 Seminole County, chlamydia has fallen from 370.6 to 340.5 per 100,000 (8%), gonorrhea has risen from 125.7 to 128.4 per 100,000 (2%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 10.8 to 11.2 per 100,000 (4%).

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 Seminole County.
Local HIV snapshot
Seminole County HIV care continuum (2023)
Seminole County recorded 16.3 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Seminole County residents living with HIV, 82% are in care · 75.8% 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 Seminole County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Lake Mary's surface reads comfortable: most households here own their homes, nearly six in ten adults are married, and nearly half of all households clear six figures. But stable doesn't mean simple, and for the younger adults who live and work in this part of Seminole County, the logistics of routine screening can quietly stack up in ways the neighborhood aesthetic doesn't suggest. The city's layout is the first honest challenge.
With nearly two-thirds of residents in the labor force and unemployment low, most people are genuinely occupied; renters paying north of $1,600 a month have even less room to absorb costs or take a long lunch for an appointment downtown. That matters most for the city's late-teens-and-twenties crowd, who carry STI risk in the years before routine healthcare feels urgent. Testing options appear on this page, several with fee structures that ease cost concerns, and Seminole County's own STI data gives reason not to wait.
Getting there
At 8.64/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Lake Mary generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

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).
In Florida, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
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.
