PrEP and PEP Where Referrals Usually Land

Plenty of clinics test for HIV but hand prevention off to a specialist elsewhere. Third Street Family Health Services prescribes both PrEP and PEP on-site in Bucyrus, keeping the prescription in the same building as the test that prompted it.

Substance-Use Treatment Staffed Alongside STI Care

Third Street runs substance-use treatment as a clinical service within the same practice, meaning a provider who manages STI care can also coordinate medication-assisted or counseling-based treatment for substance use, rather than those two needs competing across separate systems.

Herpes and Hepatitis Added to the Standard Panel

The testing panel at Third Street extends to herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the bacterial core: each requiring its own specimen collection method and lab pathway, all ordered and processed through the clinic's own providers in Bucyrus.

No Bill Follows You Out the Door

When cost becomes the reason someone delays care, an untreated infection goes unaddressed, and that gap compounds. Crawford County Public Health charges nothing for any service it provides, so the decision to come in never hinges on what's in your wallet that week.

Herpes Testing Is on the Standard Panel Here

Gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV make up the panel at most public clinics. Herpes rarely does. Crawford County Public Health includes herpes testing alongside those four, closing a gap that often goes unaddressed at comparable facilities.

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.

About New Washington, OH

New Washington's working rhythm runs on trades and steady jobs: the kind that demand showing up, learning a skill, and staying put. People here tend to own their homes and build lives that span decades. That rootedness comes with a practical side: health care that fits a budget matters, and so does trust. STI testing in and around New Washington reflects that plainspoken approach. Clinics and providers listed on this page offer screening that's straightforward, affordable, and discreet.

No performance, no judgment, just the facts you need. Young adults in their late teens through thirties make up a real presence in the community, and for that age group especially, regular confidential screening is routine. Whether someone's in a new relationship, between partners, or simply keeping baseline health in order, testing happens quietly and without fanfare here. Results are yours alone; no surprise calls to employers, no gossip chains, no assumptions. The affordability that defines New Washington extends to sexual health care.

Sliding-scale fees, insurance coverage, and walk-in visits mean cost doesn't become the reason someone delays screening. Testing takes an hour or less, and follow-up is straightforward when needed. That combination (privacy, price, and plain accessibility) is what makes STI testing fit into the lives people actually live here.

Confidentiality & consent in Ohio

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Ohio 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 Ohio, 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)

Ohio 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.
