Chlamydia diagnoses in Grafton County are about 66% lower than the national average. If you live in Lebanon, New Hampshire and want to get tested for STIs whether you have symptoms or just want peace of mind, consider both community clinics for low-cost or free options and private labs for faster results and more flexible scheduling. We've listed both below.
Available testing centers
9 testing options are listed for Lebanon, NH. The nearest, Dartmouth Health, is about 3.0 miles away. Compare community and public clinics, private labs, and at-home kits below.
Listings tagged Community health center are federally funded health centers and rural clinics that treat everyone regardless of insurance or ability to pay: required to bill on a sliding fee scale and provide confidential care, and in many states minors may consent to their own STI testing. A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Dartmouth Health in Lebanon brings STI and HIV care into an academic health system that runs standard panels (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia) on a sliding scale, with bacterial infections treated same visit; appointments are required, and services extend across French, Portuguese, and Spanish.
A prescription misunderstood or a diagnosis imprecisely conveyed can stall care for weeks. At Dartmouth Health in Lebanon, clinical staff conduct visits directly in French, Portuguese, and Spanish (no relay, no lag) so dosing instructions, follow-up timelines, and risk conversations land with the precision they require.
Ryan White Program funding at Dartmouth Health in Lebanon underwrites the full arc: initial HIV testing, linkage to a provider, antiretroviral prescribing, viral load and CD4 monitoring, and medication adherence counseling maintained over time. Staffed and billed through the program so cost doesn't interrupt the continuum.
Dartmouth Health in Lebanon prescribes and manages PrEP: including the required HIV testing at baseline and every three months, renal function monitoring, and adherence counseling built into follow-up visits. PEP is also available, dispensed and monitored through the same clinical framework.

Planned Parenthood of Northern New England in White River Junction requires an appointment and covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C testing on a sliding-scale fee, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and interpretation services available across languages.
Planned Parenthood of Northern New England carries interpretation services for non-English languages as a standing clinical capability, not a separate arrangement to negotiate before you arrive. For anyone navigating STI testing, PrEP counseling, or treatment in a language other than English, that continuity means medical detail moves without loss across every step of the visit.
Without Title X status, a minor seeking STI care can face a chain of redirects. One provider for testing, another for treatment, billing that surfaces on a parent's insurance. Planned Parenthood of Northern New England's Title X designation consolidates that into one appointment, and its legally confidential services for minors mean the visit stays private by law, not just policy.
Planned Parenthood of Northern New England prescribes both PrEP, daily oral HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis requiring periodic HIV and kidney-function monitoring, and PEP, the post-exposure course initiated after potential HIV contact. Holding both under one prescribing relationship means follow-up labs and medication continuity stay with the same clinical team.

Good Neighbor Health Clinics in White River Junction tests for HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and hepatitis C: all at no fee, on a sliding scale down to zero, with walk-ins welcome and same-visit treatment available for bacterial infections.

Good Neighbor adds hepatitis C to its gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and rapid HIV testing, which is particularly useful for anyone without a primary care provider who might otherwise lack a routine path to hepatitis C screening. On-site treatment is available for bacterial findings the same day.

Mount Ascutney Hospital and Health Center in Woodstock tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C on a fee-based sliding scale, with insurance and Medicaid accepted. Bacterial STIs are treated at the same visit; an appointment is required.
Mount Ascutney's panel runs beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV to include herpes simplex, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. Each drawn and processed through the hospital's own laboratory. That means one appointment covers bloodborne and viral infections that narrower panels route to separate visits or separate orders entirely.
Interpretation at Mount Ascutney is arranged through the hospital's established language-access infrastructure, drawing on the same staffing model used across its clinical departments. That means a clinician can walk through test results, medication adherence plans, or vaccine schedules in a language the patient uses. Not filtered through an ad hoc arrangement.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Grafton County, the county that includes Lebanon, compare with New Hampshire and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~33% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#4 of 10 New Hampshire counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 60% of the state
| Infection | Grafton County | New Hampshire | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 169.6 158 cases ▼ 14% | 196.6 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 29 27 cases ▼ 31% | 41.9 | 179.5 |

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 Grafton County, chlamydia has fallen from 189.9 to 169.6 per 100,000 (11%), gonorrhea has risen from 19.8 to 29 per 100,000 (46%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.2 to 4.3 per 100,000 (95%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Grafton County.
Local HIV snapshot
Grafton County HIV care continuum (2023)
Grafton County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 2.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Grafton County residents living with HIV, 78.5% are in care · 75.9% 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 Grafton County tests for syphilis.

Local context
Getting tested for STIs in Lebanon means navigating the reality of a smaller New Hampshire city where clinical services cluster along the main corridors rather than scatter throughout town. US 4 connects much of what's available, though the nearest comprehensive sexual health screening may require a short trip to a neighboring community. For residents accustomed to the ease of larger medical centers, this geography can feel like a small trade-off for the privacy that comes with being known in a place where word travels fast. The community draws young adults in steady numbers (students, early-career professionals, people building lives here) and that population knows the value of confidential care. Testing clinics and urgent care facilities listed on this page honor that need straightforwardly: what you discuss with a provider stays with them, and results don't flag a notification to anyone else without your say-so.
Lebanon's comfortable, working character means many residents have health coverage that makes testing accessible without the friction of cost. Routine screening is particularly relevant for young adults, whether you're in a new relationship, between partners, or simply taking the sensible step of knowing your status. The clinics and health services in and around Lebanon are equipped for quick, discreet visits. No elaborate story needed, no reason beyond your own peace of mind.
Getting there
At 8.07/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Lebanon 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 New Hampshire 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 New Hampshire, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
New Hampshire 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.
