New Day Womens Clinic in Whitewater tests for gonorrhea and chlamydia and treats bacterial infections the same visit, so a positive result doesn't stretch into a second appointment. Gonorrhea and chlamydia testing, STI treatment, and family planning are all provided at no charge.
When cost is the reason someone skips treatment, the infection continues, and so does transmission. At New Day Womens Clinic, every service carries no charge, so a gonorrhea or chlamydia diagnosis doesn't stall at the diagnosis itself because treatment became unaffordable.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Jefferson County, the county that includes Sullivan, compare with Wisconsin and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~27% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#23 of 72 Wisconsin counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 68% of the state
| Infection | Jefferson County | Wisconsin | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 248.4 213 cases ▼ 41% | 422.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 21 18 cases ▼ 82% | 118.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.8 5 cases ▼ 36% | 9.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 2.3 2 cases ▼ 63% | 6.2 | 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 Jefferson County, chlamydia has fallen from 248.5 to 248.4 per 100,000 (0%), gonorrhea has fallen from 51.8 to 21 per 100,000 (59%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2.4 to 5.8 per 100,000 (142%).

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 Jefferson County.
Local HIV snapshot
Jefferson County HIV care continuum (2023)
Among Jefferson County residents living with HIV, 94.6% are in care · 89.2% 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 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 Jefferson County tests for syphilis.

Local context
A Saturday morning at Rome Pond Park, or a weekday errand down Madison Avenue, brings Sullivan residents past the clinics and health services where STI testing happens without fanfare. The town draws young adults in particular, people establishing themselves, building relationships, navigating the transitions that make regular screening a straightforward health decision rather than an afterthought. Testing in and around Sullivan is available through providers listed on this page, each offering the confidentiality that lets someone get results without the weight of local gossip or assumptions. What matters here is that the process stays between you and the clinic.
No one at work needs to know. No one at the grocery store will see your name on a waiting list. The providers serving Sullivan understand that people come in for many reasons: routine checkups, peace of mind after a new relationship, or because enough time has passed since the last visit. Screening is quick, straightforward, and designed to fit into an ordinary week.
Access to testing doesn't require a long drive or a trip to Madison. The clinics and urgent care facilities in Sullivan itself, along with those in nearby communities, mean you can schedule on your own timeline. Whether you're looking for same-day results or prefer to wait a few days, the choice stays yours, and the results stay private.

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