Zero-Cost Care for Whoever Needs It Most
Whether you're paying entirely out of pocket, managing HIV medication on a fixed income, or simply without a regular provider, Signature Health extends every service (testing, treatment, PrEP, vaccines) at no fee. That standing capability means nothing is withheld because of what's in your wallet.
Spanish Spoken as the Clinical Language
The gap at many clinics is that Spanish speakers get routed through workarounds that sit outside the exam room, leaving the actual clinical conversation in English. At Signature Health in Highland Hills, Spanish is spoken directly by staff, so the diagnosis, the treatment plan, and the medication instructions land without a layer between them.
Ryan White Funding Anchors HIV Care End-to-End
Ryan White Program funding at Signature Health means HIV care doesn't terminate at a positive result, it extends into ongoing medical treatment and medication management for people who qualify. That federal program specifically exists to sustain continuity, covering the cost gap that would otherwise interrupt antiretroviral therapy.

Rated 4.4 out of 5 from 51 reviews
Central Outreach Wellness Center in Cleveland offers its full panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB) at no charge, with walk-ins welcome and same-visit treatment for bacterial infections covered under that same zero-cost structure.
Read full overviewShow less
Every Service Runs at Zero Cost
All care at Central Outreach Wellness Center (testing, treatment, vaccines, PrEP, PEP, DoxyPEP) carries no fee, regardless of insurance status. That means a patient managing an ongoing PrEP prescription and a new hepatitis concern faces the same bill: nothing, at every visit.
PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Without a Regular Provider
Central Outreach Wellness Center holds standing capacity to prescribe PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP. All three prevention medications, not a rotating subset. For someone paying cash or without an established primary-care relationship, that breadth means one clinic handles the full prevention conversation without gaps in the formulary.
Hepatitis C Treatment Delivered On-Site
Central Outreach Wellness Center treats hepatitis C directly, keeping the treatment course, including prescribing and monitoring, within the same clinic that ran the initial test. Hepatitis B treatment follows the same model, so a reactive result for either virus moves into active medical management without changing providers.
Northeast Ohio Neighborhood Health Services in East Cleveland tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C on a sliding-scale fee open to all, with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs and appointments required.

PrEP and PEP Available Where Many Stop
Plenty of testing sites hand off prevention prescribing to a separate provider entirely. Northeast Ohio Neighborhood Health Services writes both PrEP and PEP on-site, keeping HIV prevention in the same clinical relationship as HIV testing itself.
Hepatitis C Treatment Runs Through This Clinic
A hepatitis C antibody-positive result at Northeast Ohio Neighborhood Health Services doesn't end the clinical encounter, direct-acting antiviral treatment is managed on-site, meaning viral clearance is a goal this clinic pursues rather than delegates.
Substance-Use Treatment Shares the Same Address as STI Care
Northeast Ohio Neighborhood Health Services carries a licensed substance-use treatment program alongside its sexual health services, a structural pairing that matters because co-occurring substance use and STI risk are clinically linked, not coincidentally adjacent.
Cleveland Clinic in East Cleveland pairs same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs with a full diagnostic panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis A, B, and C) billed to Medicaid or insurance, with a fee schedule for those paying directly. Appointments are required.
Read full overviewShow less
Cleveland Clinic prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning ongoing prevention, including follow-up labs and dosing adjustments, stays within the same care relationship rather than being handed off elsewhere.
Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Treatment in One Place
Many clinics confirm a hepatitis C antibody and leave patients to find a specialist on their own. At Cleveland Clinic in East Cleveland, treatment is carried out on-site, so a positive result moves directly into a management plan without a separate referral chain.
Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Alongside the Core Panel
Standard STI panels at many clinics cap out at four infections. Cleveland Clinic adds herpes, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C to the same visit, catching diagnoses that a narrower panel would miss entirely.
Beyond the dedicated testing centers above: at-home kits by mail, hospital labs certified for STI testing, local clinicians who can order a panel during a regular visit, pharmacies for self-test kits and prescriptions, and online PrEP & treatment.
The nearest testing center is about 1 mile away; if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Lyndhurst, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab. Results come online in days, with a clinician available if anything is positive. Same labs as a clinic, no waiting room, and you can read how accurate at-home STD tests are before you order.
Want a free option first? The CDC-supported TakeMeHome (opens in a new tab) program mails free at-home HIV self-test kits, and, in many areas, free STI kits, to your door, with no insurance or payment needed. The paid kits below add broader panels and faster turnaround.

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.

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 Cuyahoga County tests for syphilis.

Mayfield Road cuts through Lyndhurst in under ten minutes from most addresses, putting several of the clinics listed here within a genuinely short drive, which matters more than it might seem in a city where the overwhelming majority of residents own their homes. That kind of stability is real, but it also means the rental market is thin and relatively expensive for those who do rent, leaving less room in a monthly budget for anything that feels optional. For younger adults (people in their late teens and twenties navigating new relationships, new jobs, or both) a testing option that doesn't add a copay anxiety on top of an already tight month is the kind of detail that actually changes behavior. Lyndhurst's workforce participation sits at a solid majority, and with about a third of households clearing a comfortable income threshold, the city isn't uniformly stretched.
But employment schedules are uneven, and the adults most likely to benefit from routine STI screening are often the ones with the least schedule flexibility. Richmond Road and Cedar Road connect the Ardmore and Bexley Park areas to clinics with extended or weekend hours, so the geography at least isn't working against anyone. With the testing options indexed here, ranging across fee structures and appointment types, the practical question for most Lyndhurst residents isn't whether screening is accessible, but simply which option fits the corner of the map they're already on.

Confidentiality & consent in Ohio
Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Ohio 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 Ohio, 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)
Ohio 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.
