Helix tests for herpes and all three hepatitis strains in addition to gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Meaning a single visit can surface infections that a narrower panel would leave undetected and unaddressed.
Many urgent-care settings handle acute care and send HIV prevention to a specialist elsewhere: Helix prescribes both PrEP and PEP in-house, keeping initiation and follow-up under the same roof as your testing.
Spanish-Speaking Staff, Not a Patched-In Service
Spanish-language care at Helix is delivered by staff, so clinical conversations (symptom history, treatment instructions, medication adherence counseling) happen directly, without a relay that compresses or delays the exchange.

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.

Among Palm Beach County residents living with HIV, 85.9% know their status · 74.4% are in care · 67% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.

Pregnant or planning to be?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 Palm Beach County tests for syphilis.

Wells Recreational Center anchors a stretch of Riviera Beach where large, multigenerational households share relatively modest square footage. Nearly four people per home on average, often pooling rent under $1,200 a month to cover what ownership doesn't. Close to half of residents here rent rather than own, and with unemployment running notably higher than the state norm, the month's budget gets assembled from multiple directions. That kind of financial pressure doesn't leave much room for healthcare appointments that cost extra, run long, or require time off a shift.
That reality lands hardest on younger adults: people in their late teens and twenties who are statistically most likely to encounter chlamydia, gonorrhea, or syphilis and least likely to have a standing relationship with a doctor. Palm Beach County's STI figures reflect that pattern. With only about one in three adults here married, a significant portion of the community is navigating relationships outside long-term partnerships, which is exactly when routine screening earns its keep. A quick stop near North Palm Beach after work, before the weekend, is often all it takes.

Confidentiality & consent in FloridaMinor 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.
