Rated 4.1 out of 5 from 10 reviews
Ben Archer Health Center - Hatch earned its federally qualified designation by anchoring care to income-based fees, which means STI screening (syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia) is priced on a sliding scale rather than a fixed rate, putting routine testing within reach for residents across the pay spectrum.
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 2 miles away, if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Rodey, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab. Results come online in days, with a clinician available if anything is positive. Same labs as a clinic, no waiting room, and you can read how accurate at-home STD tests are before you order.
Want a free option first? The CDC-supported TakeMeHome program mails free at-home HIV self-test kits, and, in many areas, free STI kits, to your door, with no insurance or payment needed. The paid kits below add broader panels and faster turnaround.

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 Doña Ana County tests for syphilis.

The chile harvest that defines Rodey's calendar, fields ripening through late summer and into fall, draws seasonal labor and brings young adults into town for weeks or months at a stretch. That flow of people, and the relationships that form during those intense weeks, makes routine STI testing a practical part of health care here rather than an afterthought. Testing services available in and around Rodey are listed on this page, and the confidentiality that clinics maintain applies fully whether you're a year-round resident or passing through during the season. Many of the young adults who work or settle in Rodey benefit from knowing their status without delay: whether before a relationship begins, after a partner's diagnosis, or simply as part of staying informed.
The clinics and testing sites serving the area understand that people here value straightforward, discreet screening. Results don't circulate through town gossip or show up on shared insurance statements; what happens at testing stays with you and your provider. Access to screening means you're not managing uncertainty alone or traveling far for answers. Whether you reach out during harvest season or in the quieter months that follow, getting tested is a step that fits into ordinary life in Rodey.

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