Every Test and Visit Costs Nothing Here

All services at Virginia Department of Health in New Kent carry zero cost to the patient, which means the decision to get tested, treated, or vaccinated never has to wait on a billing calculation.

Interpretation Services Built Into the Appointment

Interpretation services for non-English languages are available at Virginia Department of Health in New Kent, so clinical conversations (exposure history, treatment instructions, prevention counseling) reach patients in full rather than in approximation. Access to interpretation is part of scheduling, not an afterthought.

DoxyPEP Prescribed Directly, No Outside Referral Needed

Virginia Department of Health in New Kent carries a standing ability to prescribe DoxyPEP, doxycycline taken after potential bacterial STI exposure, making it a practical option for anyone without a regular provider or primary care relationship who needs ongoing bacterial prevention built into their sexual health routine.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 from 453 reviews

Central Virginia Health Services in Charles City runs by appointment, so scheduling unlocks same-visit bacterial treatment for gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis alongside rapid or conventional HIV testing, hepatitis B and C screening, and sliding-scale fees. With care delivered in Spanish.

Hepatitis C Antiviral Treatment Prescribed Here

Central Virginia Health Services doesn't stop at diagnosing hepatitis C, clinicians prescribe and monitor direct-acting antivirals on-site, managing the full treatment course rather than handing it off. That means lab work, dosing adjustments, and follow-up happen within the same practice where the diagnosis was made.

PrEP Prescribed and Managed at Central Virginia

For anyone paying out of pocket, establishing PrEP, or accessing PEP, without a separate specialist is a real logistical advantage. Central Virginia Health Services holds the standing capacity to prescribe both, which means someone without a regular HIV-prevention provider can begin and maintain either medication here, on sliding-scale fees.

Spanish-Language Care Is a Clinical Default Here

Spanish is an operational language at Central Virginia Health Services, not a bridging accommodation: meaning clinical conversations about PrEP adherence, hepatitis C treatment protocols, or STI prevention unfold directly in Spanish. The practical consequence is that nuanced medication education reaches patients without compression or delay.

STDs & HIV in New Kent County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in New Kent County, the county that includes New Kent, compare with Virginia and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data.

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.

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.
