Novant Health-GoHealth Urgent Care in Greensboro tests for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB, treating bacterial STIs the same visit when needed, on a fee-based sliding scale accepted by Medicaid and most insurance, with no appointment required.
Novant Health-GoHealth tests for herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C in addition to the core bacterial and viral STIs, which means a single visit produces a fuller picture. One fewer gap that could go undetected and unaddressed.
Walk-in urgent-care sites rarely carry HIV prevention prescribing into their scope of practice: Novant Health-GoHealth does, offering both PrEP for ongoing prevention and PEP for post-exposure protection without sending patients to a separate provider.
Interpretation services are available for non-English languages at Novant Health-GoHealth in Greensboro, which means every exchange, from symptom discussion to treatment instructions, stays accurate and actionable rather than approximate.

Guilford County Health Department in Greensboro runs its STI program through the full infrastructure of a public health department: HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis B and C, herpes, and TB testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, PrEP, DoxyPEP, and sliding-scale care, all at no fee.
Whether you're paying entirely out of pocket, managing care without a regular provider, or simply need treatment (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis) filled and handled the same day, Guilford County Health Department covers the entire visit at no charge. That holds for testing, treatment, PrEP, and DoxyPEP alike.
The majority of clinics offering interpretation rely on contracted remote services, a phone or screen standing in for a person who actually knows the room. Guilford County Health Department provides care directly in American Sign Language, Chinese, French, and Haitian Creole, with additional interpretation available for Portuguese, Spanish, Tagalog, and Vietnamese.
For anyone navigating STI care or family planning without a parent's involvement, Title X status gives Guilford County Health Department the legal framework to provide those services confidentially to minors.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Guilford County, the county that includes Summerfield, compare with North Carolina and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~18% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#18 of 100 North Carolina counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 82% of the state
| Infection | Guilford County | North Carolina | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 843.8 4,640 cases ▲ 39% | 607.9 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 381.9 2,100 cases ▲ 57% | 243.2 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 27.6 152 cases ▲ 39% | 19.9 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 23.1 127 cases ▲ 46% | 15.8 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 33.3 183 cases ▲ 39% | 24 | 29.5 |
Rates per 100,000 population, 2023. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis). Population figures: U.S. Census Bureau ACS. These figures are the latest available surveillance estimates. Bars are scaled to the highest rate shown.
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 Guilford County, chlamydia has fallen from 858.9 to 843.8 per 100,000 (2%), gonorrhea has fallen from 409.8 to 381.9 per 100,000 (7%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 19.6 to 27.6 per 100,000 (41%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Guilford County.
Local HIV snapshot
Guilford County HIV care continuum (2023)
Guilford County recorded 19.5 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 15.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Guilford County residents living with HIV, 81.3% are in care · 72.4% 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 Guilford County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
White Horse Farms sits the way much of Summerfield does: quiet cul-de-sacs, long driveways, households where two-thirds of adults are married and families run larger than the state average. It's a community built around ownership: the overwhelming majority of residents have roots here deep enough to sign a mortgage, and with home values well into the three-hundreds, that's a meaningful financial commitment. That stability is real, but it can make Summerfield feel like a place where health appointments get quietly reshuffled behind yard work, school pickups, and the commute down Battleground Avenue into Greensboro.
That commute matters for anyone thinking about STI screening. Summerfield has more than fifty percent of households clearing six figures, so cost is less often the barrier than sheer schedule. The clinics listed on this page include options along the Battleground Avenue corridor that serve Guilford County residents without requiring a separate trip into an unfamiliar part of the city, which, for a community that largely stays on its own side of the county line, removes the one obstacle most likely to matter.
Getting there
At 6.27/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Summerfield 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 North Carolina 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 North Carolina, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
North Carolina 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.
