How to read these listings
Listings tagged Community health center are federally funded health centers and rural clinics that treat everyone regardless of insurance or ability to pay: required to bill on a sliding fee scale and provide confidential care, and in many states minors may consent to their own STI testing. A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Sunset Health in San Luis folds STI care into a full-service health center, which means gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, and hepatitis testing all sit alongside treatment and prevention under one appointment: fees slide with income, and Spanish is spoken on staff.

Spanish Spoken Without Scheduling Around It
For anyone whose primary language is Spanish (navigating a new diagnosis, asking follow-up questions about a medication, or managing PrEP without a regular provider) Sunset Health's staff delivers that care directly in Spanish. No relay, no delay: the clinical conversation happens in the language the work gets done in.
PrEP Prescribed and Monitored On-Site
Sunset Health carries PrEP from initial prescription through the ongoing lab work, the kidney panels and HIV checks required every three months, that keep the regimen safe and legal to continue. PEP is also available here, dispensed and managed by the same clinical staff who handle the follow-up.
Herpes and Hepatitis Caught at the Same Visit
Leaving herpes or hepatitis off a standard panel means a second appointment somewhere else, a gap where an active infection goes unaddressed. At Sunset Health, hepatitis A, B, and C and herpes testing run alongside the core bacterial panel, so nothing falls through to a follow-up referral that may not happen.

Yuma County Public Health Services District in Yuma charges a fee for services and tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and herpes. With same-visit treatment for bacterial infections. HPV, hepatitis A, and hepatitis B vaccines are available; appointments are required.

HIV Testing Leads to Ongoing Funded Care
Testing alone is where many public clinics stop, a result handed over without a path forward for those who need HIV care. Yuma County Public Health Services District holds Ryan White funding, which means a positive result doesn't end the clinical relationship; it opens one, with treatment and ongoing management supported through that program.
Herpes Testing Joins the Standard Panel
The clinic runs herpes testing alongside HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. Meaning a single appointment produces results across five infection categories. Herpes screening requires a specific lab order distinct from the bacterial panel, so having it staffed and ordered here keeps a clinically complete picture within one visit structure.

Sunset CHC, Inc. Yuma Site serves Yuma residents who are between providers, paying cash, or working with limited income. Exactly the people a federally qualified health center's sliding-scale structure is built for. Walk-ins are welcome for syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia screening, with fees adjusted to what you can afford.
Amistad Clinic in Yuma charges a set fee and accepts insurance for HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis testing, with same-visit treatment available for bacterial infections. Appointments are required, and PrEP is on the care menu alongside full HIV management.

Tenofovir and Emtricitabine Are Already on the Formulary
Amistad Clinic prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, no outside referral needed to initiate or continue either regimen. PrEP requires routine HIV and kidney-function monitoring, and that follow-up care happens within the same practice, keeping the prescription and its required labs connected.
Hepatitis C Gets Treated Here, Not Just Flagged
Many clinics run a hepatitis C antibody test and then send patients elsewhere for anything further. Amistad Clinic carries the full arc, diagnosis through antiviral treatment, so a reactive result leads to a treatment plan within the clinic rather than a handoff to an unfamiliar provider.
Sunset Conference Storage and Fleet Building in Yuma welcomes walk-ins for STI screening without an appointment. Sliding-scale fees, tied to income, apply to the syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia panel, meaning a single visit can cover testing regardless of what someone can afford to pay.
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 4 miles away, if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to San Luis, 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.

Yuma County recorded 18.7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.6 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Yuma County residents living with HIV, 61.1% are in care · 54.5% 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 Yuma County tests for syphilis.

East Cesar Chavez Boulevard runs through the daily rhythm of San Luis in ways that reflect how tightly connected home life and finances are here. Nearly seven in ten residents own their homes, often at values well below the state average, and for those who rent, monthly costs stay modest but still matter against a backdrop where high unemployment means a meaningful share of households are stretching carefully. With fewer than one in ten families bringing in six figures, an unexpected medical bill can quietly shift what gets scheduled and what gets postponed, including a lab visit.
Those household realities shape how younger adults in San Luis, the late teens and twenties crowd most likely to benefit from routine STI screening, actually navigate care. Large average household sizes and a majority of married adults suggest that many people here live in close, interdependent arrangements where a health concern left unaddressed can ripple outward. For someone juggling irregular work or sharing a single vehicle across a household of nearly four people, a clinic that posts same-day or walk-in availability is not a convenience but a genuine factor in whether screening happens at all.

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