Rated 2.6 out of 5 from 9 reviews

Valley Oaks Health in Attica tests for HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and hepatitis B and C, treating bacterial infections the same visit on a sliding-scale fee. Walk-ins welcome, with substance-use treatment available for those who need it alongside STI care.

Substance-Use Treatment Shares the Same Address

Without on-site substance-use treatment, a positive result often ends with two separate care tracks, two separate schedules, and a gap where follow-through falls apart. Valley Oaks Health closes that gap directly, substance-use treatment sits alongside STI care, so both needs get addressed in the same clinical relationship, not across two systems.

Hepatitis B and C Testing Beyond the Standard Four

A standard STI panel at many clinics covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV: hepatitis goes untested, or patients are pointed elsewhere. Valley Oaks Health runs hepatitis B and hepatitis C testing as part of its panel, and carries hepatitis A and B vaccines for those who need prevention alongside screening.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 from 344 reviews

Valley Professionals Community Health Center in Crawfordsville runs by appointment, so arriving with a confirmed slot means one visit covers the standard panel, same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and sliding-scale fees that apply to everyone regardless of coverage.

Read full overview Show less

Standalone STI clinics screen and treat, then leave patients to navigate substance-use care on their own. Valley Professionals folds substance-use treatment into the same health center, so someone whose sexual health and substance use are connected doesn't have to split their care across two separate systems.

Herpes and Hepatitis C Testing Beyond the Core Four

For anyone without a regular provider handling their full history, Valley Professionals' panel extends to herpes and hepatitis C alongside the bacterial infections and HIV. Meaning a single appointment can answer questions that a narrower clinic would leave open.

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.

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 Fountain County tests for syphilis.

Many offer same-day or rapid results, which matters when someone wants answers without prolonged uncertainty. Getting tested doesn't require a referral or a lengthy appointment.

Walk-in visits are common, and the cost structure at most sites is transparent upfront. Whether you're establishing baseline health records, following up after exposure, or simply staying current with screening, the clinics serving Mellott make the process straightforward enough that the decision to test becomes easier than the worry that precedes it.

Confidentiality & consent in Indiana

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

Two things that actually depend on Indiana 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 Indiana, 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)

Indiana 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.
