Florida Department of Health in Gadsden County, in Quincy, runs on a sliding scale and accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and TB: with bacterial STIs treated the same visit, by appointment, and care available in Spanish.
The clinic delivers care in Spanish, which means a patient's history, treatment plan, and follow-up instructions stay in the language of the appointment itself. No gap between what's said and what's understood when the details matter most.
The clinic tests for herpes in addition to gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, giving a clearer picture of sexual health in a single visit. Particularly useful since herpes often goes unscreened at practices that limit testing to the standard four.

North Florida Medical Centers in Quincy is a community health center, which means STI care sits alongside primary and preventive medicine rather than in isolation. Appointments are required; the sliding-scale fee applies to everyone, and same-visit treatment is available for bacterial infections. Spanish is spoken here.
The testing panel at North Florida Medical Centers extends to herpes and three hepatitis strains (A, B, and C) in addition to gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. That breadth means a single visit can surface infections that a narrower panel would simply miss.
Spanish-language care at North Florida Medical Centers is a direct clinical capability, not a workaround. The practical consequence is that medication adherence counseling, one of the center's named services, can be delivered in full without a layer of intermediary communication flattening the detail.

Planned Parenthood of Florida in Tallahassee requires an appointment and, at that visit, tests for HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and herpes. Treating bacterial infections the same day on a sliding-scale fee accepted alongside Medicaid and private insurance.
Planned Parenthood of Florida in Tallahassee has Spanish-speaking staff and broader interpretation services built into care, so a patient navigating STI results, contraception, or HIV management in Spanish or another language receives counsel and decision-making support in the same conversation as clinical care. Not a separate step.
Without Title X, a minor seeking STI testing or contraception often faces a parental-notification barrier or a cost that ends the visit before it starts. Planned Parenthood of Florida in Tallahassee closes both gaps: Title X funding covers the sliding-scale fee, and confidential services for minors are legally protected. No guardian signature required.
Planned Parenthood of Florida in Tallahassee prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning ongoing HIV prevention becomes part of a regular care relationship at the same clinic where testing and STI treatment already happen.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Gadsden County, the county that includes Midway, compare with Florida and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~20% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#1 of 67 Florida counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Gadsden County | Florida | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 1177.2 516 cases ▲ 136% | 498.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 579.5 254 cases ▲ 180% | 206.7 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 41.1 18 cases ▲ 113% | 19.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 16 7 cases ▼ 36% | 25.1 | 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 Gadsden County, chlamydia has risen from 1015.4 to 1177.2 per 100,000 (16%), gonorrhea has fallen from 593.3 to 579.5 per 100,000 (2%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 31.9 to 41.1 per 100,000 (29%).

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 Gadsden County.
Local HIV snapshot
Gadsden County HIV care continuum (2023)
Gadsden County recorded 27 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Gadsden County residents living with HIV, 78.6% are in care · 66.7% 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 Gadsden County tests for syphilis.

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 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.
