Spanish Spoken by Clinical Staff, Not Routed Around

El Centro Family Health staffs Spanish-language care directly, meaning prescriptions are written, treatment plans are explained, and follow-up instructions are delivered in Spanish by the clinicians themselves. Not mediated through a separate service layer. That operational continuity matters across every appointment, from initial testing to treatment.

Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Treatment Stay at El Centro

El Centro Family Health prescribes and monitors direct-acting antiviral treatment for hepatitis C on-site. Sustained virologic response, the clinical marker of cure, is tracked within the same practice that made the diagnosis, keeping the treatment arc intact rather than splitting it across providers.

Hepatitis A, B, and C Testing Built Into the Panel

El Centro Family Health runs serologic testing for hepatitis A, B, and C as part of its standard infectious disease workup. Each requiring distinct markers drawn from the same blood draw but interpreted and acted on separately. Hepatitis A and B vaccination is also available on-site for those without prior immunity.

STD stats & rates

STDs & HIV in Harding County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in Harding County, the county that includes Roy, compare with New Mexico and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~22% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.

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.

Young adults in Roy often find themselves at life stages when routine screening makes real sense: new relationships, job changes, or simply the clarity that comes with taking stock.

Results stay confidential by law and practice; your test and your follow-up belong to you alone.

Confidentiality & consent in New Mexico

Minor 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.
