Health Partners of Western Ohio in New Carlisle tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C on a sliding-scale fee open to anyone; same-visit treatment is available for bacterial STIs, and appointments are required.
Plenty of clinics will run a hepatitis C antibody test and stop there, leaving patients to locate a specialist on their own. Health Partners of Western Ohio carries treatment on-site, a positive result moves into a managed care plan without stepping out the door.
When STI care and substance-use treatment are split across separate providers, one appointment often never gets made, and that gap compounds both conditions. Health Partners of Western Ohio holds substance-use treatment alongside STI services, so both concerns land in the same clinical relationship.
The standard panel at most STI clinics covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Hepatitis doesn't make the cut. At Health Partners of Western hepatitis C testing is built into the panel, catching an infection that otherwise goes undetected until it's advanced.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Clark County, the county that includes North Hampton, compare with Ohio and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~21% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#8 of 88 Ohio counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 91% of the state
| Infection | Clark County | Ohio | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 501.4 675 cases ▲ 9% | 461.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 152.3 205 cases ▼ 9% | 168 | 179.5 |

| Syphilis (early) | 4.5 6 cases ▼ 51% | 9.2 | 16 |

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 Clark County, chlamydia has risen from 488.2 to 501.4 per 100,000 (3%), gonorrhea has fallen from 342.6 to 152.3 per 100,000 (56%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 28.7 to 15.6 per 100,000 (46%).

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 Clark County.
Local HIV snapshot
Clark County HIV care continuum (2023)
Clark County recorded 16.7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 8.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Clark County residents living with HIV, 84% are in care · 75.3% 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 Clark County tests for syphilis.

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