Rated 2.6 out of 5 from 59 reviews

Presbyterian Medical Services in Farmington screens for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV on a sliding-scale fee that reaches zero. Every service, no charge at the floor. Walk-ins are welcome, same-visit bacterial treatment is available, and HPV, hepatitis A, and hepatitis B vaccines are on-site.

Read full overview

Every Service Runs at Zero Cost

For anyone paying cash without a regular provider to absorb the bill, Presbyterian Medical Services carries no-fee care as a standing policy. Not a waiver you negotiate at the desk. Testing, treatment, and vaccines all fall under the same ceiling: none.

Spanish-Language Care Without a Workaround

Many clinics handle Spanish through an intermediary: a line, a screen, something between you and the clinician. Presbyterian Medical Services in Farmington delivers care directly in Spanish, so the conversation about symptoms, history, and treatment happens in the same room, in the same language, without a layer in between.

Substance-Use Treatment Stays in the Same Building

When those two needs are handled at separate addresses, one of them tends to wait, and the one that waits often goes unresolved. Presbyterian Medical Services folds substance-use treatment into the same clinical setting as STI care, so neither condition gets deferred while you navigate a second appointment somewhere else.

Rated 4.7 out of 5 from 1630 reviews

San Juan Regional Medical Center in Farmington pairs same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis) with testing across a full panel, and fees run on a sliding scale accepted by Medicaid, Medicare, and most insurers. Appointments are required.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed Here, No Gap

Without a clinic that handles both PrEP and PEP directly, a patient faces a second appointment, a second intake, and days lost. Gaps that undo the entire point of time-sensitive prevention. San Juan Regional Medical Center prescribes both, keeping the prevention pathway inside a single clinical relationship.

Hepatitis B and C Testing Alongside the Core Panel

San Juan Regional Medical Center tests for hepatitis B and hepatitis C in addition to HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, which means a single visit produces a complete picture of bloodborne and sexually transmitted infections, rather than requiring separate orders or follow-up labs.

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 San Juan County tests for syphilis.

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.
