Stony Brook Medicine brings academic medical infrastructure to STI care in Stony Brook, covering the full panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and appointments required. All services are provided at no fee.
HIV testing and hepatitis C testing are explicitly free at Stony Brook Medicine, and that zero-fee policy extends across the entire service menu. No fee accrues regardless of what the visit covers, which means PrEP monitoring, hepatitis treatment, and TB care all fall under the same cost structure.
Plenty of testing sites screen for HIV without offering the drugs that prevent it. Stony Brook Medicine prescribes both PrEP, the daily antiretroviral regimen, and PEP, extending prevention from a single test into an ongoing clinical relationship rather than a handoff.
A positive hepatitis C test at Stony Brook Medicine doesn't end the encounter, the clinic carries treatment on-site. Direct-acting antivirals, which clear hepatitis C in the overwhelming majority of cases, are managed here, meaning diagnosis and the full treatment course stay within the same system.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Suffolk County, the county that includes Old Field, compare with New York and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~20% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#19 of 62 New York counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 69% of the state
| Infection | Suffolk County | New York | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 342.5 5,217 cases ▼ 39% | 558.4 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 70.5 1,074 cases ▼ 70% | 235.6 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.8 89 cases ▼ 61% | 14.8 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 11 167 cases ▼ 52% | 23.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 10.4 159 cases ▼ 59% | 25.2 | 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 Suffolk County, chlamydia has risen from 314.4 to 342.5 per 100,000 (9%), gonorrhea has risen from 69.3 to 70.5 per 100,000 (2%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 3.9 to 5.8 per 100,000 (49%).

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 Suffolk County.
Local HIV snapshot
Suffolk County HIV care continuum (2023)
Suffolk County recorded 6.2 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Suffolk County residents living with HIV, 82.4% are in care · 77.3% 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 Suffolk County tests for syphilis.

Testing clinics listed on this page accommodate both longtime residents and those newer to the area, offering the privacy that matters when seeking routine care.
The affluent character of Old Field doesn't insulate anyone from infection risk; it simply means residents often expect straightforward access to health services without fuss.

Whether you're planning ahead or responding to a specific concern, testing in Old Field and nearby communities is designed to fit into ordinary life without drawing attention. The clinics and urgent-care facilities listed here understand that people in established households sometimes need care that feels as private as possible.

Two things that actually depend on New York 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 New York, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
New York 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.
