Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas in Bedford runs by appointment, so each visit is structured around you: covering chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, HIV, and hepatitis C testing, same-visit bacterial treatment, and sliding-scale fees for everyone.
Spanish is a working language of care at this Bedford location, not a service patched in by request. For other languages, interpretation services are available directly: meaning clinical conversations about test results, treatment plans, and prevention options happen in the language the visit actually requires.
Title X federal designation makes confidential family planning services for minors a legal requirement at this clinic, not a policy choice. That means a minor's visit, test results, and any contraceptive or STI services are protected from disclosure to guardians. Built into the program's governing statute, not left to staff discretion.
Splitting HIV prevention from bacterial STI prevention across separate providers means gaps in coverage and delays in prescriptions. Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas in Bedford prescribes PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP for doxycycline-based bacterial STI prevention. All three under one clinical roof, managed through the same prescribing relationship.

Lighthouse Family Medicine in Colleyville runs STI care on an appointment basis, pairing a full bacterial-and-viral panel with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and sliding-scale fees that apply to everyone. PrEP and PEP available for ongoing and post-exposure prevention.
Plenty of testing-focused clinics hand off prevention prescribing to a separate provider. At Lighthouse Family Medicine, both PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention and PEP are managed in-house. Meaning the same appointment that catches an infection can also start the medication that prevents one.
Lighthouse Family Medicine tests for herpes and all three hepatitis strains alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, so a single visit produces a genuinely complete picture rather than one that leaves common infections unexamined until symptoms force a second appointment.

MEDI Care Clinics in Fort Worth accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, with a standard fee schedule that applies across all services. Walk-ins are welcome for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections.
The testing menu at MEDI Care Clinics runs past gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV to include herpes simplex and both hepatitis B and C: each ordered, collected, and processed through the same clinical workflow as the core panel, no separate referral pathway required.
MEDI Care Clinics carries a substance-use treatment program staffed alongside its STI services: meaning the same facility that diagnoses and treats a gonorrhea or chlamydia infection can also initiate, prescribe, and monitor a substance-use treatment plan, handled by clinical staff on-site rather than through a separate program intake.

Collins Family Planning Clinic in Fort Worth covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and HIV on a sliding-scale fee, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections when needed, and all of it, including counseling, in Spanish.
Plenty of testing sites draw the line at gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Herpes and hepatitis land on a separate referral track, if they're addressed at all. Collins Family Planning Clinic tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C in the same appointment, no secondary visit required.
Without Title X designation, a minor seeking family planning or STI care often hits a wall: services that require parental consent, or a referral to a separate facility that may or may not have availability. Collins Family Planning Clinic's Title X status means those services, including legally confidential care for minors, are delivered here, in the same appointment.
Most clinics handle Spanish through an intermediary: a third party on a call, a staff member pulled from another role, a lag between question and answer that flattens the conversation. At Collins Family Planning Clinic in Fort Worth, Spanish is a primary language of care, meaning counseling, history-taking, and treatment discussion happen directly, without the filter.

Health 4u Clinic runs a six-test panel that adds herpes and hepatitis C to the gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV baseline. Hepatitis C is diagnosed and managed directly through the clinic, no separate referral chain, and herpes typing is handled in the same appointment.
Health 4u Clinic structures its entire operation (testing, vaccines, STI treatment, prevention counseling) under a sliding-scale schedule with a hard floor of no charge. The sliding scale is not reserved for a subset of services; it governs every clinical encounter the clinic provides, and donations are accepted rather than required.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Tarrant County, the county that includes North Richland Hills, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~25% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#38 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 85% of the state
| Infection | Tarrant County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 507.1 11,069 cases ▲ 3% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 205.9 4,494 cases ▲ 17% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 15.1 330 cases ▲ 1% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 22.7 496 cases ▼ 14% | 26.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 31.7 691 cases ▼ 28% | 44.3 | 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 Tarrant County, chlamydia has risen from 401.1 to 507.1 per 100,000 (26%), gonorrhea has risen from 191.8 to 205.9 per 100,000 (7%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 12.9 to 15.1 per 100,000 (17%).

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 Tarrant County.
Local HIV snapshot
Federal priority area: Tarrant County is one of 48 U.S. counties prioritized under the Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative: targeted federal funding to expand local HIV testing, PrEP, and prevention.
Tarrant County HIV care continuum (2023)
Tarrant County recorded 18.7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Tarrant County residents living with HIV, 78.6% know their status · 81.7% are in care · 71.6% 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 Tarrant County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Along Davis Boulevard, where errands stack up and the day fills before it starts, married couples heading most North Richland Hills households can quietly slip into assuming the other partner has already scheduled their sexual health screening. With an average household running above three people, the logistics of daily life (school pickups, work schedules, a drive down Davis Boulevard to get anywhere) can crowd out appointments that feel low-stakes until they aren't. That dynamic matters especially for the younger adults in their late teens and twenties who are statistically most likely to encounter chlamydia or gonorrhea without knowing it. North Richland Hills leans heavily on car travel, getting to a clinic near TX 26 or across I-820 means coordinating a vehicle and a window in the day.
Nearly a third of households here earn above six figures, but a meaningful share of renters paying around the city's typical monthly rent are weighing every out-of-pocket cost; the listed options on this page include choices at different price points, which removes one reason to put it off. With most working-age residents in the labor force and unemployment running at a real level, evening or weekend availability isn't a luxury preference. It's what makes a test possible at all. Knowing that a Saturday slot near Hurst Hills Park or a same-day option off Grapevine Highway exists is often the detail that turns intent into follow-through.
Getting there
At 9.15/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in North Richland Hills generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

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