Anchor of Hope Health Center in Sheboygan covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C testing alongside STI treatment and family planning: walk-ins welcome, no appointment required, and every service is provided at no fee.
Anchor of Hope operates without a billing structure, no fee schedule, no sliding-scale calculation, no balance generated for any visit. Testing, treatment, and family planning are each staffed and administered at zero cost, meaning the clinic absorbs the full operational expense so patients never do.
Interpretation services for non-English languages are available across all of Anchor of Hope's services, which means a patient's ability to describe symptoms, understand a diagnosis, or follow a treatment plan is not constrained by English fluency. The clinical conversation stays accurate regardless of language.
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, Anchor of Hope tests for both hepatitis B and hepatitis C, which means a single visit surfaces liver infections that often share transmission routes with other STIs but go undetected when only the core four are screened.

Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin in Sheboygan tests for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, and HIV on a sliding-scale fee open to all, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections; an appointment is required.
Without language support at the visit itself, a diagnosis can sit unaddressed. Follow-up instructions misread, treatment skipped, a prescription never filled. Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin in Sheboygan builds interpretation services into care so that nothing in the clinical conversation gets lost between languages.
Many family planning providers simply don't extend confidential services to minors, that gap leaves younger patients navigating adult systems without the legal privacy protections they need. As a Title X clinic, Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin in Sheboygan provides legally confidential family planning services to minors, independent of parental billing or disclosure.
Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin in Sheboygan prescribes daily oral PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP, doxycycline taken after sexual exposure, to reduce risk of bacterial STIs including gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis, with clinical monitoring built into each regimen.

Froedtert Hospital in West Bend runs STI testing by appointment, covering HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis A, B, and C, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, sliding-scale fees, and services conducted in Spanish.
Spanish is available across the full service continuum at Froedtert Hospital: not limited to intake but present through testing, results, and ongoing treatment conversations. That means clinical nuance, medication instructions, and follow-up planning all move in Spanish without a handoff to a secondary channel.
Froedtert Hospital holds Ryan White Program funding, which means HIV care, from the initial conventional test through ongoing medical treatment and medication management, is available to people without the insurance or income to sustain it elsewhere. That standing capacity makes the clinic a durable option for anyone who needs HIV care to continue, not just begin.
Prevention prescribing at many clinics stops at PrEP. Froedtert Hospital in West Bend prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP, the post-exposure doxycycline protocol for reducing bacterial STI risk, giving people access to the fuller current prevention toolkit rather than a single-medication approach.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Sheboygan County, the county that includes Oostburg, compare with Wisconsin 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.
#26 of 72 Wisconsin counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 64% of the state
| Infection | Sheboygan County | Wisconsin | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 236.1 278 cases ▼ 44% | 422.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 28 33 cases ▼ 76% | 118.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 6.8 8 cases ▼ 25% | 9.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 3.4 4 cases ▼ 45% | 6.2 | 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 Sheboygan County, chlamydia has fallen from 347.4 to 236.1 per 100,000 (32%), gonorrhea has fallen from 61.8 to 28 per 100,000 (55%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 0.8 to 6.8 per 100,000 (750%).

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 Sheboygan County.
Local HIV snapshot
Sheboygan County HIV care continuum (2022)
Sheboygan County recorded 5 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 5.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Sheboygan County residents living with HIV, 81.1% are in care · 77% 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 Sheboygan County tests for syphilis.

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