Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Alongside the Standard Panel
The panel here runs to eight pathogens: adding herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB to the core four. That count means a single appointment can surface infections that a narrower panel would leave undetected, with TB treatment available on-site for any confirmed case.
DoxyPEP Prescribed Directly at This Clinic
Virginia Department of Health in Waynesboro carries DoxyPEP as a standing service, meaning anyone who needs the medication and lacks a regular prescriber can get it here, without being sent elsewhere. Sliding-scale fees apply, so out-of-pocket cost adjusts to income rather than sitting at a fixed retail price.
ASL Staffing and Live Interpretation for Clinical Conversations
American Sign Language access at this clinic is a staffed clinical capability, not a contingency measure. ASL is available for the appointment itself. For other languages, live interpretation services are arranged, so the exchange of exposure history, treatment instructions, and prevention counseling happens directly, in full, rather than through workarounds.

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.

Pregnant or planning to be?
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 Augusta County tests for syphilis.

Confidentiality & consent in Virginia
Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Virginia 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 Virginia, 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)
Virginia 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.
