Rated 2.9 out of 5 from 68 reviews

Genesis Community Health, Boynton Beach's community health center, anchors STI care in a full primary-care environment: HIV (rapid and conventional), hepatitis B and C, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and TB testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, on a sliding-scale fee, with all services provided at no cost.

Read full overview

Every Service Carries a Zero Balance

When cost becomes the reason someone delays care, or skips a follow-up, infections go unmanaged and transmission continues. At Genesis Community Health, every service, from the initial panel to treatment to vaccination, is provided at no fee, so that calculation never enters the room.

Spanish-Language Care Without the Gap

A missed nuance in discussing symptoms, exposure concerns, or treatment instructions can mean incomplete care or a return visit that never happens. Genesis Community Health delivers STI services directly in Spanish, keeping clinical conversations complete and uninterrupted from first question to final prescription.

PrEP Prescribed and Monitored On-Site

Genesis Community Health prescribes and monitors PrEP, the daily oral regimen requiring HIV testing and kidney-function labs at baseline and every three months, entirely within the clinic. PEP is also available for prevention, with both programs supported by staff who handle the ongoing clinical management, not just the initial script.

Rated 3.1 out of 5 from 93 reviews

Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County in Lantana takes walk-ins for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, rapid and conventional HIV, and TB testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs, sliding-scale fees accepted by all, and vaccines including HPV, hepatitis A and B on the same visit.

Read full overview

Three Languages Staffed, Not Patched Together

Haitian Creole and Spanish are operational clinic languages at Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County, not routed through an outside service, and interpretation is available for additional languages beyond those two. That breadth means clinical conversations about PrEP dosing, DoxyPEP timing, or syphilis staging happen in three named languages without a gap in precision.

All Three Prevention Prescriptions at One Address

Needing PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP from separate providers means separate appointments, separate records, and gaps where prevention stalls. Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County in Lantana prescribes all three under one clinical relationship, so a prevention plan that combines daily PrEP with DoxyPEP after a bacterial exposure isn't split across offices.

Substance-Use Treatment Runs Concurrently With STI Care

Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County staffs substance-use treatment as a concurrent service alongside STI care, not as a referral endpoint. That means clinicians managing a gonorrhea or syphilis case can coordinate directly with the substance-use treatment track (shared charting, shared follow-up) rather than handing off to a separate program with its own intake process.

Rated 5 out of 5 from 8 reviews

Midway Specialty Care Center in Atlantis covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C testing on a sliding-scale basis, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and every service is provided at no fee.

Read full overview

Every Service Runs at Zero Cost

Midway's no-fee model isn't a discount program: it's operationally built into how the clinic is staffed and funded, so HIV testing, hepatitis C treatment, PrEP prescribing, DoxyPEP, and ongoing HIV medical management all clear at the same rate: nothing owed at the visit.

French and Spanish Spoken Across Clinical Care

French and Spanish are available throughout care at Midway, which means medication adherence counseling and PrEP education land in the language a patient reasons and asks questions in, reducing the chance that something gets misunderstood when it matters.

Ryan White Funding Covers HIV Care End to End

Midway holds Ryan White Program funding, which means HIV-positive patients without insurance or a regular provider have a place that carries them from initial diagnosis through ongoing antiretroviral management. No gap between testing and treatment, no separate referral chain to navigate.

Atlas Infectious Disease

No ratings yet

Atlas Infectious Disease in Atlantis runs the full panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and sliding-scale fees accepted through Medicaid or insurance. Appointments are required.

Read full overview

Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Treatment Stay Together

Atlas Infectious Disease carries hepatitis C treatment on-site, meaning a confirmed diagnosis leads directly to a treatment plan within the same practice. That continuity cuts the gap between knowing and acting, no handoff to a separate specialist before care can begin.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed Here Directly

Atlas Infectious Disease prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP from within its own practice. Useful for anyone without a regular provider who needs prevention medication managed by someone who also handles testing and treatment. All three options live in one appointment rather than spread across separate referrals.

French and Haitian Creole Spoken by Staff

Atlas Infectious Disease conducts care in French, Haitian Creole, and Spanish, with interpretation services available for other languages, which means nuanced conversations about symptoms, medication schedules, and prevention choices happen in the language a patient actually uses to think through health decisions.

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.

Palm Beach County recorded 20 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. 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.

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.

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.

Local context

About San Castle, FL

Garnett Park anchors the quieter, residential side of San Castle. The kind of block where households run large and neighbors know each other's cars. That matters especially for the roughly one in four residents in their late teens and twenties: the years when STIs circulate most, relationships shift most, and people are least likely to have an established doctor they see regularly.

With most households here renting rather than owning, and typical rents claiming a real share of a moderate monthly budget, an unexpected medical bill can feel like reason enough to postpone screening indefinitely. The workforce here is largely employed and active, but a 9-to-5 schedule and a single clinic option don't always line up neatly, so the listed options that offer evening or weekend slots are worth checking first. For the large share of San Castle residents outside that high-earning bracket, which here describes the clear majority, the fee structure at the option listed on this page deserves a close look before the appointment: sliding-scale or income-based pricing can bring the out-of-pocket cost down to something a renter on a $1,233-a-month lease can actually absorb.

Confidentiality & consent in Florida Minor 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.
