Near Hennepin, the rate of reported gonorrhea cases runs about 68% higher than the US average. Regardless of whether it's your first STI test or a routine screening in New Hope, Minnesota, you can choose between clinics that may bill insurance or offer sliding-scale fees and private labs that let you pay a flat self-pay price. We list options below.
Available testing centers
9 testing options are listed for New Hope, MN. The nearest, Annex Teen Clinic, is about 1.6 miles away. Compare community and public clinics, private labs, and at-home kits below.
Annex Teen Clinic in Robbinsdale runs STI testing and treatment alongside ongoing prevention care (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, and rapid or conventional HIV testing) on a sliding-scale fee with walk-ins welcome, same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and PrEP and PEP available on-site.
Leaving Annex Teen Clinic without a prevention plan when you need one means starting over: finding a prescriber, waiting for another appointment, and carrying risk in the meantime. PrEP and PEP are both managed here directly, so that gap never opens.
Annex Teen Clinic tests for herpes in addition to gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, which means an infection that would otherwise go undetected and unaddressed gets named and treated in the same visit.

An appointment is required.

For a young person without a regular provider or paying out of pocket, that standing protection is built directly into every eligible service.
Without language support, a positive result can stall at the moment it matters most. Instructions misread, treatment skipped, follow-up missed. Planned Parenthood North Central States provides interpretation services for non-English languages so that the full clinical conversation, from diagnosis through treatment, reaches the patient accurately and completely.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Hennepin County, the county that includes New Hope, compare with Minnesota 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.
#1 of 87 Minnesota counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Hennepin County | Minnesota | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 634 7,980 cases ▲ 67% | 379.5 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 301.9 3,800 cases ▲ 124% | 134.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 19.5 246 cases ▲ 124% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 16.7 210 cases ▲ 149% | 6.7 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 27.6 348 cases ▲ 88% | 14.7 | 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 Hennepin County, chlamydia has risen from 574.8 to 634 per 100,000 (10%), gonorrhea has fallen from 341.2 to 301.9 per 100,000 (12%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 14.8 to 19.5 per 100,000 (32%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Hennepin County.
Local HIV snapshot
Hennepin County HIV care continuum (2023)
Hennepin County recorded 13.6 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 6.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Hennepin County residents living with HIV, 80.2% are in care · 65.1% 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 Hennepin County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
County Road 81 anchors daily life in New Hope, connecting neighborhoods like The Reserve and Camelot Overlook to the broader metro grid, and the households along those streets have a particular character worth understanding. Nearly half of adults here are married, household sizes run above three people on average, and decisions about health care, including STI screening, often get filtered through shared schedules, shared budgets, and a reluctance to carve out time mid-week. That dynamic shapes how people actually follow through on routine health care, or don't.
Homeownership sits at a majority here, but a substantial share of residents rent at around a thousand dollars a month, leaving limited cushion for out-of-pocket costs they weren't planning on. With fewer than three in ten households clearing six figures, cost isn't an abstraction. The options listed on this page include providers along corridors accessible from CR 81, so reaching one doesn't require a complicated detour, though for working adults whose labor-force participation is solid and whose days are already full, the practical question is whether appointment hours align with a Tuesday evening or a Saturday morning, not just whether a clinic exists somewhere nearby.
Young adults in their late teens and twenties are the group that Hennepin County's STI data consistently reflects most sharply. In a city where household ties run close and social networks connect residents from Cherry Meadows Park to Brookdale Park, staying current on screening is what keeps those county figures from compounding quietly year over year.
Getting there
New Hope scores 13.47/20 on the EPA walkability index, so many trips are walkable or a short ride, though a car still gives you the widest choice of testing centers.

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 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).
In Minnesota, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
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.
