Memorial Hermann-GoHealth Urgent Care in Magnolia takes walk-ins for a full STI panel (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and fees billed to insurance or Medicaid, or paid directly on a set fee basis.
Without a regular provider, getting herpes or hepatitis testing often means chasing a separate appointment at a separate facility. Memorial Hermann-GoHealth carries herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C testing on-site, so someone paying cash or without a primary care relationship can close the full picture in one walk-in visit.
When a patient and provider can't communicate clearly, STI care at Memorial Hermann-GoHealth Urgent Care in Magnolia doesn't stall into an untreated gap or a return visit that never happens: interpretation services are available so that diagnosis, treatment, and next steps land accurately the first time.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Montgomery County, the county that includes Stagecoach, compare with Texas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~15% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#148 of 254 Texas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 42% of the state
| Infection | Montgomery County | Texas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 265.7 1,890 cases ▼ 46% | 491.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 71 505 cases ▼ 60% | 176.4 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 4.4 31 cases ▼ 71% | 15 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 19.3 137 cases ▼ 27% | 26.4 | 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 Montgomery County, chlamydia has risen from 218.4 to 265.7 per 100,000 (22%), gonorrhea has risen from 62.4 to 71 per 100,000 (14%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 4.7 to 4.4 per 100,000 (6%).

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 Montgomery County.
Local HIV snapshot
Montgomery County HIV care continuum (2023)
Montgomery County recorded 12.7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 20.2 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Montgomery County residents living with HIV, 75.4% are in care · 67.7% 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 Montgomery County tests for syphilis.

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).
In Texas, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
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.
