Chickasaw Nation in Ardmore covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and TB testing at no charge to every patient. Hepatitis A and B vaccines and same-visit bacterial STI treatment are included, with appointments required to be seen.
Chickasaw Nation charges nothing for any service it provides: testing, treatment, and vaccines alike. That flat structure means a patient leaves with hepatitis B vaccination or gonorrhea treatment without a bill attached to any part of the visit.
The clinic's panel names herpes explicitly alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Five pathogens tested rather than the common four. Catching herpes serology at the same appointment that covers bacterial STIs reduces the number of separate visits needed to build a complete picture.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Love County, the county that includes Marietta, compare with Oklahoma and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~31% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#38 of 77 Oklahoma counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 51% of the state
| Infection | Love County | Oklahoma | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 369.1 38 cases ▼ 22% | 471.3 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 77.7 8 cases ▼ 54% | 170.3 | 179.5 |

| Syphilis (early) | 19.4 2 cases ▲ 13% | 17.1 | 16 |

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 Love County, chlamydia has fallen from 374.5 to 369.1 per 100,000 (1%), gonorrhea has fallen from 167.6 to 77.7 per 100,000 (54%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 29.6 to 29.1 per 100,000 (2%).

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 Love County.
Local HIV snapshot
Federal priority area: Oklahoma is one of the U.S. jurisdictions prioritized under the Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative: targeted federal funding to expand local HIV testing, PrEP, and prevention.
Love County HIV care continuum (2023)
Love County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.4 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Love County residents living with HIV, 100% are in care · 90.9% 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 Love County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Memorial Park sits near the center of Marietta, a place where the town gathers and where health matters close to home. STD testing in and around Marietta reflects the same straightforward practicality that defines the community itself: services are accessible, affordable, and designed to fit lives that often span generations under one roof. Young adults, a significant presence here, have particular reason to seek routine screening: it's the kind of preventive step that pairs well with the responsibility many carry for family and household. Confidentiality in a town where people recognize each other carries real weight. Testing facilities listed on this page understand that discretion isn't bureaucratic fine print but a genuine need.
Results remain yours alone, shared only with you and your provider, and the process moves without unnecessary complexity or delay. Cost matters in Marietta, where household budgets are tight. Clinics and health centers serving the area offer sliding-scale fees and work with uninsured and underinsured patients, making screening feasible regardless of income. Starting with a conversation about what's available locally, whether through your primary care doctor or a dedicated testing site, removes the first barrier to peace of mind.

Two things that actually depend on Oklahoma 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 Oklahoma, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT) is potentially allowable in Oklahoma: it is not expressly authorized, but not prohibited either. Ask your provider whether they will prescribe treatment for a partner without a separate visit.
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.
