Herpes and Hepatitis Tested, Not Deferred

Leaving herpes or hepatitis untested means scheduling a second visit elsewhere, paying twice, and waiting longer to know the full picture. Allina Health in Hastings runs the extended panel (herpes, hepatitis A, and hepatitis B alongside the bacterial infections) so nothing gets deferred to another appointment.

Substance-Use Treatment Sits Inside the Same Practice

For anyone managing substance use alongside an STI concern, coordinating two separate providers means double the scheduling, double the intake. Allina Health in Hastings holds substance-use treatment within the same clinical home, so both conditions land with one care team from the start.

Spanish Care Delivered Directly at This Clinic

Many clinics handle Spanish through workarounds that sit outside the exam room. At Allina Health in Hastings, Spanish-language care is part of what the clinic itself delivers, so the clinical conversation, not just the check-in, happens in Spanish.

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 Dakota County tests for syphilis.

Use this as a per-test benchmark before you pay out of pocket, or see the full guide to STD test costs for insurance, free, and at-home options.

Confidentiality & consent in Minnesota

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

Two things that actually depend on Minnesota 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 Minnesota, 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)

Minnesota 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.
