PrEP at University of Utah Health means an on-site prescriber handles the initial evaluation, writes the Truvada or Descovy script, and schedules the follow-up labs, HIV and kidney-function monitoring, that the regimen requires. PEP prescriptions are similarly managed in-house, with clinical staff overseeing the full course rather than coordinating across separate providers.
For anyone without a regular primary-care provider, University of Utah Health's panel covers hepatitis B and C in addition to HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. All drawn from a single visit. That breadth is useful for people who need a complete baseline worked up in one appointment rather than splitting labs across different systems.

Planned Parenthood Association of Utah in Salt Lake City covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and rapid or conventional HIV testing. With same-visit treatment for bacterial STIs on a sliding-scale fee that applies to everyone. Appointments are required.
Planned Parenthood Association of Utah provides services directly in Spanish, with interpretation available for other languages as well. That means clinical conversations (risk counseling, treatment instructions, PrEP education) proceed in the language each patient actually uses, without any relay through a separate service.
As a Title X-funded site, Planned Parenthood Association of Utah is legally required to keep STI and family planning services confidential for minors. A federal protection, not a policy preference. That designation is what makes private care structurally available to younger patients, independent of parental involvement.
For anyone without a regular primary care provider, or who simply wants prevention and STI care consolidated, Planned Parenthood Association of Utah prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP directly. Sliding-scale fees extend to PrEP for uninsured patients, so cost doesn't determine access to ongoing HIV or bacterial STI prevention.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Salt Lake County, the county that includes South Salt Lake, compare with Utah and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~40% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#1 of 29 Utah counties for chlamydia, among the very highest in the state
| Infection | Salt Lake County | Utah | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 472.4 5,602 cases ▲ 47% | 322 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 151.8 1,800 cases ▲ 95% | 77.9 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 21.1 250 cases ▲ 118% | 9.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 9.3 110 cases ▲ 94% | 4.8 | 16 |

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.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Salt Lake County, chlamydia has risen from 459.2 to 472.4 per 100,000 (3%), gonorrhea has fallen from 167.4 to 151.8 per 100,000 (9%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 7.3 to 21.1 per 100,000 (189%).

Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Salt Lake County.
Local HIV snapshot
Salt Lake County HIV care continuum (2023)
Salt Lake County recorded 8.7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 5.5 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Salt Lake County residents living with HIV, 75.2% are in care · 66% 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.
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 Salt Lake County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Windsor Circle's mix of older apartment blocks and small single-family homes sets the tone for South Salt Lake broadly: most residents here rent rather than own, and at rents that leave little cushion for expenses that feel optional in the moment. Even when they aren't. That financial reality shapes how people approach healthcare, and it makes the range of low-cost and sliding-scale clinics listed on this page more than a convenience.
Households here tend to be larger than the regional average, and with nearly six in ten residents renting, schedules often bend around second jobs, shift work, or long commutes down State Street or I-15. People in their late teens and twenties make up an outsized share of that population, exactly the years when relationship patterns shift most and regular STI screening is most likely to catch something early.
Getting there
South Salt Lake scores 13.65/20 on the EPA walkability index, so many trips are walkable or a short ride, though a car still gives you the widest choice of testing centers.

Two things that actually depend on Utah 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).
In Utah, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Utah 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.
