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.

East Texas Community Clinic in Gun Barrel City welcomes walk-ins for STI screening under its federally qualified health center designation, pairing that with an NHSC sliding-fee scale tied to income. A single visit can cover syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia testing, with fees adjusted based on what patients can afford.
Texas Health Family Care, a family practice in Mabank, folds STI testing into the same appointment structure as routine medical care: meaning gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB screening share a visit with treatment, HPV and hepatitis A and B vaccines, and sliding-scale fees accepted alongside Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance.
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 5 miles away; if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Seven Points, 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 (opens in a new tab) 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 Henderson County tests for syphilis.

Along the TX 274 corridor winding past Optimist Park and Whatz-Up Family Fun Park, housing costs in Seven Points run well below the Texas average, yet when roughly one in three households is renting and unemployment sits meaningfully above state norms, even a modest co-pay or an afternoon off work can quietly tip the scale against booking a health appointment. That financial tightrope is worth naming plainly, because younger adults in Seven Points (people still building careers, dating, figuring out their twenties) are the ones STI rates track most closely, and they're also the ones most likely to weigh "what does this cost me today" before acting on something they already know they should do. Getting around amplifies that calculation. TX 274 is the corridor most people drive to reach services: there's no sidewalk alternative when you're out past Optimist Park or Tom Finley Park, and that means every clinic visit is a deliberate trip, not a quick errand folded into a walk.
With just over half the adult population actively in the workforce, schedules aren't always nine-to-five, which makes the range of the listed options genuinely useful rather than decorative. Henderson County's STI picture gives real reason to stay current on screening. The good news is that Seven Points's low typical rent means a sliding-scale or low-cost clinic visit is often the only out-of-pocket number that matters, and options on this page are structured exactly that way.

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