MercyOne in Silvis tests for HIV, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee; insurance is also accepted. Bacterial STIs are treated same visit, and appointments are required.
Plenty of testing sites can confirm an exposure but hand off prevention to a separate provider. MercyOne in Silvis prescribes both PrEP and PEP on-site, keeping ongoing HIV prevention and post-exposure response in the same clinical relationship rather than scattered across multiple offices.
When hepatitis C is detected, MercyOne in Silvis moves directly into treatment. Prescribing antivirals and monitoring response through the same clinical team that ran the test. Patients don't need to re-establish care elsewhere to access a cure.
MercyOne in Silvis tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard bacterial infections, which means conditions that often go undetected in a basic screening get a diagnosis, and, where treatment exists, can be addressed right away.

| Gonorrhea | 7 days after exposure | 14 days after exposure |
| Trichomoniasis | 7 days after exposure | 28 days after exposure |

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Scott County, the county that includes Riverdale, compare with Iowa and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~24% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#8 of 99 Iowa counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 92% of the state
| Infection | Scott County | Iowa | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 539.4 940 cases ▲ 26% | 426.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 229 399 cases ▲ 96% | 116.8 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 14.9 26 cases ▲ 45% | 10.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 6.3 11 cases ▼ 32% | 9.2 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 8 14 cases ▼ 19% | 9.9 | 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 Scott County, chlamydia has fallen from 577.7 to 539.4 per 100,000 (7%), gonorrhea has fallen from 293.1 to 229 per 100,000 (22%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 3.4 to 14.9 per 100,000 (338%).
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 Scott County.
Local HIV snapshot
Scott County HIV care continuum (2023)
Scott County recorded 4.1 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 5.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Scott County residents living with HIV, 91% are in care · 85.3% 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 Scott County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Bettendorf's streets around Crissey House sit mostly with people who own their homes rather than pass through as renters, a settled pattern that shows up in yards kept year after year and cars parked in driveways rather than curbside. That kind of stability shapes the drive to get tested more than people realize: Riverdale itself isn't where the clinic sits, so the trip means turning onto Grant Street or State Street and following US 67 out toward Scott County's larger clinical hubs, a stretch of highway locals already know from work commutes and grocery runs. With most households built around two incomes and steady jobs, that drive tends to get folded into a lunch break or an end-of-shift stop rather than requiring a day off.
Households here run larger than a single person living alone, and with married couples making up a solid share of the population, testing often gets treated as something both partners handle rather than a private errand one person quietly manages. Younger adults just settling into first apartments or starting families nearby are the ones who benefit most from that highway proximity: this is the stretch of life when a new partner, a move, or a lapse in routine care makes screening worth doing on a schedule, not just when something feels wrong. Because Great River Road connects Riverdale directly to bigger clinical options without much backtracking, getting tested doesn't require rearranging much: just building it into a trip already headed that direction, whether that's a Bicentennial Park afternoon or a stop on the way home from Grant Street.
Getting there

Source: Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, CMS, 2025 rates (data.cms.gov). Reference rate for the lab assay only: a clinic visit, sample collection, or a bundled multi-test panel may cost more. Medicaid and most insurers cover STD screening at no out-of-pocket cost.
Two things that actually depend on Iowa 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 Iowa, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own; a parent may be notified only in the case of a positive HIV test result.
Iowa 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.
