Connectus Antioch, in Antioch, calibrates its fees to each patient's income as a federally qualified health center. Meaning cost won't block care. Walk-ins are welcome for STI screening covering syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, with sliding-scale rates available regardless of ability to pay.

Neighborhood Health in Nashville tests for HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB. With same-visit antibiotic treatment for bacterial infections and sliding-scale fees that apply to everyone, by appointment, with care delivered in Spanish.
Prevention programs at many clinics end at education and condoms: Neighborhood Health extends that to PrEP, the daily oral medication that blocks HIV transmission, and PEP, the post-exposure course taken after a potential risk event. Both are prescribed and managed on-site in Nashville.
Neighborhood Health in Nashville prescribes and monitors direct-acting antiviral therapy for hepatitis C, meaning the same clinical team that orders the antibody and confirmatory RNA tests also writes the treatment regimen and tracks viral load through clearance, without sending patients to a separate specialist practice.
Spanish is a working clinical language at Neighborhood Health: not a triage accommodation but a throughline across testing, treatment counseling, medication adherence education, and PrEP management, so nothing gets compressed or deferred in translation.

United Neighborhood Health Services at Lebanon, in Lebanon, welcomes walk-ins for STI screening without an appointment. Federally qualified status anchors a sliding-scale fee structure tied to income, making syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia testing available to patients across a wide range of financial situations.

Nashville CARES requires an appointment, so scheduling ahead means arriving to a visit that covers rapid and conventional HIV testing, hepatitis C, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia: with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and every service provided at no fee.
When cost stays in the equation, people delay testing, skip follow-up, or leave treatment unfinished. Gaps that compound. Nashville CARES removes that entirely: testing, treatment, vaccines, PrEP, PEP, and hepatitis C care are all provided at no charge, to everyone, without exception.
Nashville CARES prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, which means a person can leave their appointment with an active prevention strategy rather than waiting on an outside provider to get involved.
A hepatitis C diagnosis that ends at a reactive test result, with no clear path to antivirals, leaves chronic liver disease advancing in the background. Nashville CARES delivers full on-site hepatitis C treatment, so a positive rapid test leads directly to care within the same clinic.

Tennessee Department of Health in Nashville earned its federally qualified health center designation by anchoring STI care to income-based sliding-scale fees: meaning syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia screening costs adjust to what patients actually earn, with no appointment needed to get started.

Music City PREP Clinic in Nashville covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis A, B, and C testing. All at no cost, with appointments required. Bacterial STIs are treated same-visit, and sliding-scale fees apply to any services beyond the free tier.
Plenty of clinics discount care on a sliding scale but still leave a balance at checkout. Music City PREP Clinic charges nothing, not for testing, not for treatment, not for counseling. The full scope of services runs at no cost to the patient, full stop.
PrEP at Music City PREP Clinic means a clinician initiates the prescription, schedules follow-up lab monitoring, and manages adherence counseling in-house. Not coordinated through an outside provider. PEP is similarly prescribed and overseen on-site, keeping the medication and the clinical relationship in one place.
For someone without a regular provider or navigating care while paying cash, the ability to receive hepatitis C treatment, not just a diagnosis, at the same clinic matters concretely. Music City PREP Clinic prescribes and manages antiviral treatment on-site, so a confirmed hep C infection moves directly into a treatment plan without leaving the building.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Wilson County, the county that includes Mount Juliet, compare with Tennessee and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~24% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#41 of 95 Tennessee counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 57% of the state
| Infection | Wilson County | Tennessee | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 290.2 475 cases ▼ 44% | 517.4 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 90.4 148 cases ▼ 52% | 186.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.5 9 cases ▼ 63% | 14.8 | 15.8 |

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 Wilson County, chlamydia has fallen from 343.2 to 290.2 per 100,000 (15%), gonorrhea has fallen from 111.7 to 90.4 per 100,000 (19%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 5.4 to 5.5 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 Wilson County.
Local HIV snapshot
Wilson County HIV care continuum (2023)
Wilson County recorded 6.6 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Wilson County residents living with HIV, 87.1% are in care · 78.5% 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 Wilson County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Charlie Daniels Park sits at the quieter end of town, the kind of place where families loop the path on weekday evenings and the neighborhood feels genuinely settled. Mount Juliet reads that way broadly: most residents own their homes, households here tend to be larger than the regional average, and nearly two-thirds of adults are married. That stability shapes daily schedules in a particular way, because coordinating around a partner, children, and a full work week means appointments that aren't local or after-hours often don't happen at all.
The options listed on this page serve that reality unevenly. Reaching several of them means heading out on US 70 toward Lebanon or north on SR 171, a real drive from Magnolia Estates or the Jones Family Park side of town. For the roughly one in four households renting here at rates that leave little cushion, cost can be as much of a barrier as the commute: sliding-scale and low-cost options within the listed clinics matter more than they might in a community where nearly half of households clear six figures.
Young adults in their late teens and twenties still tend to move more, change partners, and delay medical care, so simple, nearby access is precisely what keeps screening realistic for that part of the population. For a renting household on a fixed monthly budget, knowing which listed option charges the least, before the drive, is the detail that actually determines whether testing happens.
Getting there
At 6.08/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Mount Juliet generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Tennessee 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 Tennessee, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Tennessee 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.
