Highlands Health Clinics in Johnstown runs a full STI panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis C) with appointment-based visits, same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and every service provided at no fee.
Plenty of clinics discount some services and bill for others, sliding scale for the test, full price for the follow-up, out-of-pocket for the vaccine. Highlands Health Clinics charges nothing for any of it: testing, treatment, and vaccines alike land at zero.
Highlands Health Clinics holds on-site hepatitis C treatment, not a diagnosis followed by a search for someone who prescribes. For anyone without a regular provider or managing costs carefully, that means the medication conversation and the medication access happen in the same place.
Anyone wanting a more complete picture of their sexual health (beyond HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia) will find that Highlands tests for herpes and hepatitis C as well, all at the same appointment and at no charge.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Cambria County, the county that includes Nanty-Glo, compare with Pennsylvania 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.
#21 of 67 Pennsylvania counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 69% of the state
| Infection | Cambria County | Pennsylvania | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 266.3 348 cases ▼ 37% | 421.2 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 52 68 cases ▼ 64% | 144.7 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 3.1 4 cases ▼ 66% | 9.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 6.1 8 cases ▼ 41% | 10.3 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 2.3 3 cases ▼ 80% | 11.4 | 29.5 |

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 Cambria County, chlamydia has risen from 249.5 to 266.3 per 100,000 (7%), gonorrhea has risen from 50.2 to 52 per 100,000 (4%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.2 to 3.1 per 100,000 (41%).

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 Cambria County.
Local HIV snapshot
Cambria County HIV care continuum (2022)
Cambria County recorded 7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 8.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Cambria County residents living with HIV, 57.2% are in care · 47.1% 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 Cambria County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Leidy Lane Park sits at the quieter edge of Nanty-Glo, where modest front porches and low home values tell a story of a community that has largely stayed put. That stability runs deep: most residents own their homes, many have lived here across decades, and household life tends to center on families rather than solo arrangements. When nearly half of adults are married and average households run close to three people, health decisions rarely happen in isolation, and a positive STI result left unaddressed affects more than one person under a roof.
The economic picture sharpens that reality. With only a small share of households clearing six figures, and a substantial portion of working-age adults outside the labor force entirely, both cost and scheduling can quietly determine whether a test gets scheduled at all. The options listed on this page include providers within a reasonable drive along PA 271, which threads through town as Chestnut Street before stretching outward toward Johnstown-area services. For young adults, the people in their late teens and twenties for whom STI rates nationally run highest, a straightforward appointment that doesn't require taking an unpaid half-day matters more than it might elsewhere.
Mine Entrance Memorial anchors the center of Nanty-Glo as a reminder of what this community has carried. From there, PA 271 points directly toward the nearest listed clinic: pulling up the hours and fees on this page first makes the drive a deliberate one rather than a guessed one.

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