Fees & payment
Terry Reilly Health Services in Homedale runs gonorrhea, syphilis, hepatitis C, TB, and HIV testing alongside same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs, with fees set on a sliding scale and appointments required. Full care, including PrEP and hepatitis C treatment, is delivered in Spanish.
Terry Reilly staffs clinical care in Spanish, not routed through a scheduling add-on or a separate language service. Prescriptions, follow-up protocols, and counseling for HIV, hepatitis C, and STI treatment all run in Spanish as the operating language of the visit.
Many testing sites hand off prevention medication to a separate prescriber. Terry Reilly in Homedale carries both PrEP and PEP in-house, meaning the clinic that runs your HIV test is the same one that can initiate and manage your prevention prescription.
A hepatitis C antibody result at Terry Reilly doesn't end the clinical relationship, direct-acting antivirals are prescribed and managed here, meaning the full treatment arc, from confirmatory testing through cure, stays within one practice in Homedale.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Canyon County, the county that includes Parma, compare with Idaho 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.
#7 of 44 Idaho counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 84% of the state
| Infection | Canyon County | Idaho | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 349.7 901 cases ▲ 19% | 294.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 48.5 125 cases ▲ 22% | 39.6 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 7.4 19 cases ▲ 95% | 3.8 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 2.3 6 cases ▼ 26% | 3.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 6.6 17 cases ▲ 5% | 6.3 | 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 Canyon County, chlamydia has fallen from 515.4 to 349.7 per 100,000 (32%), gonorrhea has fallen from 126.3 to 48.5 per 100,000 (62%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 6.1 to 7.4 per 100,000 (21%).
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 Canyon County.
Local HIV snapshot
Canyon County HIV care continuum (2022)
Canyon County recorded 6.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. 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 Canyon County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
East Grove Avenue cuts through a Parma where most households are owner-occupied and more than half of adults are married, the kind of community where health decisions often get folded into family logistics rather than made on a solo whim. With average households running above three people, a doctor's visit or screening appointment tends to compete with school pickups, work schedules, and shared budgets stretched by modest home values and rents that, low as they are by regional standards, still feel significant when unemployment is running as high as it is here. That labor picture matters.
When more than one in ten residents looking for work can't find it, discretionary health spending gets deprioritized fast, and the under-35 crowd, already navigating entry-level wages and new relationships, can go months without any routine care at all. Canyon County's STI figures reflect a region where infections move quietly through connected communities. For someone rooted in Parma (owner or renter, single or partnered) staying current on screening means that a number showing up on a county rate table never becomes a personal one.
Getting there
At 4.99/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Parma 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 Idaho 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 Idaho, a minor aged 14 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Idaho 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.
