Tests offered
Community Health Service, Willmar's community health center, folds STI testing into full primary care: covering gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee with same-visit bacterial treatment; appointments are required, and interpretation services are available for non-English languages.
Community Health Service runs eight distinct tests (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB) meaning a single appointment captures infections that a narrower panel would leave undetected and unmanaged.
Substance-use treatment is available at Community Health Service alongside STI services, which means a patient managing both doesn't need a separate provider relationship to address conditions that frequently intersect clinically.
Community Health Service maintains interpretation services for non-English languages as a standing operational resource: meaning clinical conversations about test results, treatment plans, and follow-up are conducted directly, with consistent access regardless of which language the appointment is held in.

CentraCare in Willmar tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and all three hepatitis strains on a sliding-scale fee, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections: all services carry no fee, and appointments are required.
CentraCare charges no fee for any service it provides: testing, treatment, PrEP, vaccines, and counseling all fall under the same zero-cost structure. That means the Mpox vaccine, the hepatitis B vaccine, and TB treatment sit on the same financial footing as a rapid HIV test: free, without exception.
CentraCare offers care in Spanish and carries interpretation services for additional languages: meaning counseling, medication adherence education, and PrEP discussions all happen in the language the appointment is actually booked in, not relayed through an outside service afterward.
Without a clinic that manages PrEP internally, a patient faces a gap between the initial test and the prescribing provider. Sometimes weeks wide. CentraCare in Willmar closes that gap by handling PrEP initiation and ongoing care directly, so prevention isn't stalled by hand-offs between separate practices.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Kandiyohi County, the county that includes Raymond, compare with Minnesota and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~31% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#22 of 87 Minnesota counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 75% of the state
| Infection | Kandiyohi County | Minnesota | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 276.2 121 cases ▼ 27% | 379.5 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 29.7 13 cases ▼ 78% | 134.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 11.4 5 cases ▲ 31% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 4.6 2 cases ▼ 31% | 6.7 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 4.6 2 cases ▼ 69% | 14.7 | 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 Kandiyohi County, chlamydia has fallen from 340.7 to 276.2 per 100,000 (19%), gonorrhea has fallen from 98.3 to 29.7 per 100,000 (70%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.3 to 11.4 per 100,000 (396%).

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 Kandiyohi County.
Local HIV snapshot
Kandiyohi County HIV care continuum (2020)
Kandiyohi County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2020), against 6.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Kandiyohi County residents living with HIV, 89.3% are in care · 67.9% 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 Kandiyohi County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Getting tested in Raymond means planning ahead. The nearest clinic offering confidential STI screening isn't always a quick errand, and the services listed on this page reflect what's genuinely available in and around town. A reality that shapes when people actually follow through with care. For those living here, testing isn't something you can do on impulse between errands; it requires intention and often a drive.
Young adults in their late teens through thirties make up a meaningful part of Raymond's population, and for this group especially, confidential screening can be the difference between staying on top of health or letting questions linger. The clinics and providers listed here understand that barrier: they're accustomed to people traveling some distance, and they keep records private as a matter of standard practice, not exception. What matters most is that testing happens, whether you schedule it weeks in advance or find an opening that fits your actual life. The providers available in and around Raymond are equipped to make that straightforward, without judgment or unnecessary delay.

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