PrEP and PEP Where Primary Care Lives

Prevention prescribing tends to live at specialty clinics or require a separate referral chain entirely, Lake Conway Primary Care writes PrEP and PEP at the same practice managing your broader health. That continuity means your prevention medication sits alongside your full medical record from the start.

Herpes and Hepatitis Added to the Panel

Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, Lake Conway Primary Care runs blood work for herpes and both hepatitis B and hepatitis C: each ordered, drawn, and tracked within the same appointment. The hepatitis B vaccine is also administered on-site when indicated.

Rated 3.2 out of 5 from 533 reviews

True Health in Orlando requires an appointment, so scheduling ahead unlocks the full visit: rapid or conventional HIV testing, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and TB. Bacterial infections treated same-day, all fees on a sliding scale.

Languages That Stay in the Room

When care requires a second visit just to find comprehension, gaps in treatment open up. True Health delivers services directly in American Sign Language, Chinese, French, and Haitian Creole (alongside Portuguese, Spanish, Tagalog, and Vietnamese) so the clinical conversation happens once, completely, without a handoff.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed and Monitored Here

True Health prescribes and manages both PrEP and PEP in-clinic, including coverage for uninsured patients seeking PrEP. Ongoing monitoring, the HIV and kidney-function labs required at every 90-day PrEP interval, stays within the same practice rather than fragmenting across providers.

Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Treatment in One Clinic

Plenty of clinics will run a hepatitis C antibody and hand the result back. True Health carries treatment on-site, meaning a confirmed infection moves directly into a care plan. The gap between detection and a prescription doesn't require finding a separate gastroenterologist or infectious-disease practice.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed and Managed On-Site

Invested Health Center prescribes and manages PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP directly: a standing capability that serves anyone without a regular provider who needs ongoing prevention medication, same-visit initiation, or all three tools coordinated through a single clinical relationship.

Spektrum Health, an Orlando community health organization, folds STI testing into full HIV and sexual-health medical care: the standard panel, sliding-scale fees, same-visit bacterial treatment, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and appointments required for all services, with PrEP and PEP available on-site.

Read full overview Show less

Spektrum's own clinical staff write and manage PrEP prescriptions, including the required HIV and kidney-function labs at each follow-up, and PEP is dispensed and overseen in the same setting. No outside prescriber, no gap between the prevention counseling and the medication itself.

Hepatitis C Treatment Dispensed Without a Referral Chain

Spektrum carries hepatitis C treatment in-house, which serves anyone without a specialist relationship or a primary-care physician to hand off to. The diagnosis and the antiviral prescription come from the same team, cutting out the months a specialist waitlist can add.

Herpes and Hepatitis Screening Alongside the Core Panel

Anyone who wants a genuinely thorough picture, not just the four-infection baseline, can be screened for herpes simplex and hepatitis A, B, and C at Spektrum alongside the standard gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV tests. That breadth is especially useful for someone self-paying who wants to consolidate labs in a single appointment.

Rated 4.1 out of 5 from 55 reviews

Comprehensive Health Center in Orlando pairs rapid and conventional HIV testing with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs like gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis (plus hepatitis A, B, and C, herpes, and TB) on a sliding-scale fee, by appointment, with every service available at no cost.

Read full overview Show less

A gap in care (an untreated bacterial infection, a missed hepatitis follow-up, a PrEP prescription that stalls at the pharmacy counter) often comes down to cost accumulating at each step. At Comprehensive Health Center, no service generates a bill, so treatment, vaccination, and prevention land without a financial barrier between the diagnosis and the next step.

French, Haitian Creole, and Spanish Spoken on Staff

Comprehensive Health Center conducts care directly in French, Haitian Creole, and Spanish: meaning medication instructions, treatment decisions, and prevention counseling are delivered in those languages by the clinical team itself, not routed through a secondary channel, which matters when accuracy in a medication adherence conversation cannot afford ambiguity.

Comprehensive Health Center prescribes and monitors both PrEP and PEP directly: PrEP requires regular HIV testing and kidney-function labs to stay on protocol, and both are managed by the clinic's own providers rather than handed off, keeping the prescription, the monitoring schedule, and the counseling in one continuous clinical relationship.

Every Test, Every Visit, Zero Charge

Plenty of clinics advertise free HIV testing and quietly bill for everything else. Embrace Health charges nothing, not for herpes, not for hepatitis, not for the full bacterial panel, not for counseling. Donations are accepted, but no service carries a price tag.

Spanish and Haitian Creole Spoken on Staff

Many clinics default to remote interpretation for any language beyond English, which layers delay and distance into a conversation that deserves neither. Embrace Health conducts care directly in Spanish and Haitian Creole, with broader interpretation available for other languages.

Embrace Health prescribes all three frontline prevention medications: daily oral PrEP for HIV, PEP for post-exposure HIV management, and DoxyPEP, doxycycline taken after potential bacterial STI exposure, a newer protocol still absent from many standard prevention programs.

Every Test and Treatment Runs Free

HIV and STI tests carry no fee, and neither does treatment when it's needed. That means the decision to get tested or follow up on results isn't filtered through cost, care and next steps stay in the same visit, at the same place, for nothing out of pocket.

Spanish-Language Care Is Fully Staffed

Spanish-language services at this Orlando clinic run through staff who conduct clinical conversations directly in Spanish: intake, counseling, and treatment discussion included. Patients aren't handed off or slowed down; the care itself happens in Spanish.

Many STI-testing sites document risk but leave prevention prescribing to outside providers. Florida Department of Health in Orange County writes and manages both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning ongoing HIV prevention, including medication monitoring, stays within this clinic rather than starting over somewhere else.

Every Service Carries a Zero Balance

Plenty of clinics advertise free HIV testing while billing for everything around it, the hepatitis screen, the treatment visit, the PrEP consultation. At Live Love Life Community Healthcare, none of those line items exist; the no-fee policy covers the entire scope of care, not a curated subset of it.

Spanish and Tagalog Spoken by Staff

Many clinics route non-English speakers through remote interpretation services during the appointment itself. Live Love Life Community Healthcare conducts care directly in Spanish and Tagalog, so the clinical conversation (history, results, treatment options) happens without an intermediary on the line.

DoxyPEP Sits Alongside PrEP and PEP

Live Love Life Community Healthcare prescribes all three of today's frontline HIV and bacterial STI prevention regimens: daily oral PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP. The post-exposure doxycycline protocol that reduces gonorrhea and chlamydia risk. Having all three available means prevention strategy can be tailored without sending someone to a second provider.

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.

Orange County recorded 37.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Orange County residents living with HIV, 82% know their status · 79.8% are in care · 72.4% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.

Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when

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 Orange County tests for syphilis.

About Orlando, FL

Traffic slows past Wadeview Park on a Tuesday afternoon, and the nearest clinic on this page is a short drive south on SR 527. Close enough that a lunch break or an errand run can cover it without rescheduling your day. That matters in a city where most people rent, where a $1,200-a-month apartment means budgeting is real and deliberate, and where two-thirds of households are not in the ownership stability that often comes with longer roots in one place. Renters move more, relationships shift, and that kind of fluidity is exactly why low-cost, close-by testing deserves a regular slot in the calendar. Orlando's workforce participation is strong, which means most adults here are carrying full schedules.

Early shifts, split hours, second jobs filling the gap left by an unemployment rate that still leaves a meaningful slice of the city managing tight months. Younger adults in their late teens and twenties make up a substantial portion of that workforce and that rental market, and they're also the people for whom an untreated infection is most likely to go unnoticed longest. With the listed options spread across neighborhoods from Conway to Airport North, the practical question isn't whether testing is available. It's which clinic fits the commute you're already making along Semoran Boulevard this week.

What each STD test costs

Medicare reference prices per lab test, a benchmark before you pay out of pocket

These are the federal Medicare reference prices for processing each lab test. Public clinics and the community health centers serving Orlando often test free or on a sliding scale; private labs and at-home kits bundle several tests into one fee. Use this as a per-test benchmark before you pay out of pocket, or see the full guide to STD test costs for insurance, free, and at-home options.

Confidentiality & consent in Florida

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

Two things that actually depend on Florida 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 Florida, 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)

Florida 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.
