Tenofovir, Emtricitabine, and PEP Are Prescribed Here
Maine Family Planning in Calais prescribes both daily oral PrEP, tenofovir/emtricitabine, and PEP, with ongoing HIV monitoring built into the prescription cycle. Uninsured patients have a dedicated cost pathway for PrEP specifically, meaning the drug's price doesn't become the barrier that interrupts consistent use.
Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Without a Second Appointment
Chasing a herpes or hepatitis C diagnosis through separate labs means a second visit, separate billing, and days of uncertainty after an initial screen comes back incomplete. Maine Family Planning in Calais runs rapid hepatitis C, hepatitis B, and herpes testing alongside the core panel, so a single appointment produces the full picture.
Eastport Health Care is a community health center in Eastport where STI care sits alongside primary and family medicine: meaning gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV testing, plus treatment and HPV and hepatitis vaccines, are handled through the same provider relationship, on a sliding-scale fee, by appointment.
Beyond the dedicated testing centers above: at-home kits by mail, hospital labs certified for STI testing, local clinicians who can order a panel during a regular visit, pharmacies for self-test kits and prescriptions, and online PrEP & treatment.
The nearest testing center is about 10 miles away, if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Robbinston, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab.

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.

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 Washington County tests for syphilis.

Robbinston is overwhelmingly a town of homeowners, nearly nine in ten households hold the deed, which means the relatively small share of renters here are a distinct minority navigating life on different financial footing. That tenure split matters for sexual health access because renters, often younger adults still building stability, face the real cost pressures that come with renting in a rural area where a typical monthly payment leaves little slack for anything that feels discretionary. Combining that with a labor force where more than half of working-age residents aren't currently in the workforce, appointments need to fit irregular or constrained schedules, not a standard nine-to-five rhythm.
That makes having listed options on this page meaningful: more providers means a better chance of finding one whose hours or location actually works given the commute. Washington County's STI picture makes accessible screening especially relevant for people in their late teens and twenties, who tend to see the highest testing gaps precisely when relationships are most in flux. Robbinston's predominantly married, moderately sized households reflect settled lives for many residents, but for those who aren't there yet, low-barrier screening along the US 1 corridor removes the friction that rural distance otherwise creates.

Confidentiality & consent in MaineMinor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Maine 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 Maine, 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)
Maine 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.
