Virginia Department of Health in Stanardsville tests for HIV, hepatitis C, hepatitis B, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis, with every service provided at no fee on a sliding-scale basis. Appointments are required; bacterial infections are treated same visit.
All services at this clinic (testing, treatment, vaccines, PrEP) are provided at no fee, which means the cost of a follow-up visit or a vaccine series never becomes the reason someone stops mid-course.
Spanish is a working language at this clinic, and interpretation services extend to additional languages beyond it. That means clinical conversations (dosing instructions, treatment plans, counseling) happen in the language a person actually uses, not summarized through a workaround.
For anyone without a regular provider or whose provider doesn't prescribe HIV or STI prevention medications, this clinic carries all three: PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure management, and DoxyPEP for bacterial STI prevention. Prescribed and managed in the same place.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Greene County, the county that includes Stanardsville, compare with Virginia and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~25% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#126 of 133 Virginia counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 5% of the state
| Infection | Greene County | Virginia | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 126.8 27 cases ▼ 73% | 472.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 46.9 10 cases ▼ 70% | 158.3 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 9.4 2 cases ▼ 12% | 10.7 | 15.8 |

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 Greene County, chlamydia has fallen from 340.6 to 126.8 per 100,000 (63%), gonorrhea has fallen from 48.7 to 46.9 per 100,000 (4%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 4.7 to 9.4 per 100,000 (100%).

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 Greene County.
Local HIV snapshot
Greene County HIV care continuum (2020)
Greene County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2020), against 11.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Greene County residents living with HIV, 88.5% are in care · 84.6% 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 Greene County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Crow Mountain looms at the edge of town, and the daily rhythms here (shorter commutes, front-porch familiarity, neighbors who know your car) can make Stanardsville feel more self-contained than it is. Yet just over half of residents rent rather than own, and with typical monthly rents running close to a thousand dollars, budgets stay tight enough that anything adding a new line item gets scrutinized. That cost pressure, combined with a labor-force participation rate that leaves a meaningful share of adults outside standard nine-to-five schedules, shapes when and whether people fit health appointments in at all. The options listed on this page serve the broader area in and around Greene County rather than sitting at the end of Main Street.
For younger adults still figuring out relationships and partners, that distance can quietly add up to months between the thought of getting tested and actually going. Routine STI screening stays most consistent when the logistics are genuinely manageable, not just theoretically possible. The Spotswood Trail corridor is as practical a starting point as any: pull up the options listed here, note the ones with sliding-scale fees, and book before the week fills in.
Getting there
At 5.29/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Stanardsville generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Source: Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, CMS, 2025 rates (data.cms.gov). Reference rate for the lab assay only: a clinic visit, sample collection, or a bundled multi-test panel may cost more. Medicaid and most insurers cover STD screening at no out-of-pocket cost.
Two things that actually depend on Virginia 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 Virginia, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Virginia 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.
