Spanish-Language Care Without a Workaround

Crossroads Family Care delivers STI testing, counseling, and treatment directly in Spanish. Not routed through a separate service or scheduled separately. For someone navigating a diagnosis, discussing family planning, or managing ongoing treatment, that capacity sits inside the clinic itself, on the same appointment.

Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Beyond the Standard Four

Many clinics test for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, and stop there. Crossroads Family Care extends its panel to herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB, giving a more complete picture in a single appointment rather than requiring separate referrals for those additional tests.

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 Rusk County tests for syphilis.

About Mount Enterprise, TX

Railroad Avenue runs quiet through the center of Mount Enterprise, the kind of main corridor where neighbors recognize each other's trucks, and where the nearest STI testing clinic, according to the options listed on this page, requires getting on US 84 or US 259 and committing to a real drive into a larger town. The town's workforce picture adds texture to that barrier. With unemployment running noticeably above typical Texas levels, a meaningful share of residents are navigating stretched budgets alongside irregular schedules. Conditions that make a mid-week clinic appointment in another city genuinely harder to arrange.

Renters, who make up more than a third of households here, tend to carry the tightest margins in a place where typical rent still represents a significant slice of take-home pay at that income tier. For people in their late teens and twenties, the years when STI transmission is most concentrated, combining transportation costs with time off work can quietly shelve a test that would otherwise be straightforward. For the roughly one-in-four Mount Enterprise households earning above six figures, sliding-scale or low-cost options listed on this page may feel beside the point. But for renters on an $861-a-month lease, the fee structure of whichever clinic sits at the top of that list is worth reading closely before making the drive.

Confidentiality & consent in Texas

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

Two things that actually depend on Texas 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 Texas, 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)

Texas 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.
