Aza Health in Palm Coast pairs STI testing (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, conventional HIV, and hepatitis A, B, and C) with same-visit bacterial treatment, HPV and hepatitis vaccines, and sliding-scale fees on an appointment basis, with Spanish-language care integrated throughout.
Aza Health staffs Spanish-language capability as a clinical function, not a workaround: meaning providers conduct history-taking, explain results, and walk through treatment plans directly in Spanish. That operational integration covers the full scope of care, from TB monitoring to STI treatment to vaccine counseling.
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, Aza Health tests for hepatitis A, B, and C. Three infections that share transmission routes with STIs but fall off many standard panels. Hepatitis A and B vaccination is available on-site, and hepatitis C testing means chronic infection can be identified and managed rather than missed.

A co-pay that delays a follow-up, a billing statement that goes unopened, a treatment course cut short because the cost felt uncertain.

Midway Specialty Care Center in Ormond Beach carries out clinical conversations (reviewing medication instructions, working through a treatment plan, explaining lab results) directly in French and Spanish.

CAN Community Health in Daytona Beach is a full-service community health center, covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, rapid and conventional HIV, hepatitis C, and TB on a sliding-scale basis, with appointments required, and delivers same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs, all at no fee.
Fee schedules at many clinics carve out exceptions: certain vaccines, follow-up visits, or treatment courses that quietly fall outside what's covered. At CAN Community Health, the sliding-scale bottoms out at zero and stays there across every service offered, from the initial test through HIV medical management and hepatitis C treatment.
CAN Community Health in Daytona Beach provides services in Spanish alongside interpretation for other languages: meaning a Spanish-speaking patient works directly with staff who can field questions about medication adherence, PrEP regimens, or treatment timelines without a communication gap in the middle of a clinical decision.
CAN Community Health prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP under one roof, which means a patient's prevention approach can be adjusted, or started, at the same visit where testing and counseling happen, rather than across separate providers or timelines.

| Gonorrhea | 7 days after exposure | 14 days after exposure |

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Flagler County, the county that includes Palm Coast, compare with Florida 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.
#57 of 67 Florida counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 15% of the state
| Infection | Flagler County | Florida | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 246.5 324 cases ▼ 51% | 498.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 84.4 111 cases ▼ 59% | 206.7 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 7.6 10 cases ▼ 61% | 19.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 4.6 6 cases ▼ 82% | 25.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 9.9 13 cases ▼ 74% | 37.7 | 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 Flagler County, chlamydia has fallen from 272.1 to 246.5 per 100,000 (9%), gonorrhea has fallen from 91 to 84.4 per 100,000 (7%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 6.1 to 7.6 per 100,000 (25%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Flagler County.
Local HIV snapshot
Flagler County HIV care continuum (2023)
Flagler County recorded 5.1 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Flagler County residents living with HIV, 90.1% are in care · 80.6% 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 Flagler County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Palm Coast Parkway West stretches far enough that reaching the nearest clinic listed here can mean a twenty-minute drive or more depending on where in the city you start. That distance is real, and for the roughly one-in-four residents who rent, often at rates that leave little cushion after monthly costs, choosing a low-cost or sliding-scale option from the twelve listed on this page is not a background detail but an actual financial decision.
The city's ownership rate tells a quieter story, too. With nearly three-quarters of households owning their homes, Palm Coast skews toward settled, longer-term residents, and the average household runs just over three people. More than half of adults here are married. That profile shapes how people think about sexual health: screening tends to get framed as a couples or family matter, or quietly deferred because it feels less urgent once a relationship stabilizes. But Flagler County's STI picture, combined with the share of residents in their late teens and twenties, the years when chlamydia and gonorrhea peak, means that deferred testing carries real consequences across relationship types.
With just over half the adult population active in the workforce and unemployment present at a meaningful level, scheduling around job hours is a genuine constraint for many households in Pine Lakes, Belle Terre, and beyond. The options listed here vary in hours and fees, worth checking before you commit to the drive.
Getting there
At 6.77/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Palm Coast generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

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