Cherokee Nation in Salina tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee with walk-ins welcome, and every service is provided at no charge.
When a fee becomes the reason someone delays treatment or skips follow-up care, an infection stays unresolved and conditions compound. Cherokee Nation in Salina eliminates that outcome entirely: STI treatment, hepatitis C care, TB treatment, PrEP, and vaccines carry no cost at the point of service.
Cherokee Nation in Salina prescribes and manages PrEP, including the baseline HIV and renal labs required before starting and the quarterly monitoring that sustains an active prescription. That continuous clinical relationship means a lapse in coverage or a dosing question gets handled by the same provider, not routed to a separate practice.
For anyone without a specialist or a way to absorb specialist costs, Cherokee Nation in Salina's standing capability to treat hepatitis C, not only detect it, closes the gap that a diagnosis alone leaves open. Antiviral treatment is managed on-site, so a reactive antibody test advances to a treatment plan within the same facility.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Mayes County, the county that includes Strang, compare with Oklahoma and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~43% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#29 of 77 Oklahoma counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 62% of the state
| Infection | Mayes County | Oklahoma | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 406.1 162 cases ▼ 14% | 471.3 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 132.9 53 cases ▼ 22% | 170.3 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 25.1 10 cases ▼ 9% | 27.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 20.1 8 cases ▲ 18% | 17.1 | 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 Mayes County, chlamydia has fallen from 455.9 to 406.1 per 100,000 (11%), gonorrhea has fallen from 197.2 to 132.9 per 100,000 (33%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 28.2 to 25.1 per 100,000 (11%).

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 Mayes County.
Local HIV snapshot
Federal priority area: Oklahoma is one of the U.S. jurisdictions prioritized under the Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative: targeted federal funding to expand local HIV testing, PrEP, and prevention.
Mayes County HIV care continuum (2021)
Mayes County recorded 15.2 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2021), against 11.4 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Mayes County residents living with HIV, 94.4% are in care · 69.4% 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 Mayes County tests for syphilis.

Two things that actually depend on Oklahoma 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 Oklahoma, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT) is potentially allowable in Oklahoma: it is not expressly authorized, but not prohibited either. Ask your provider whether they will prescribe treatment for a partner without a separate visit.
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.
