Spanish Is the Working Language Here

Spanish-speaking staff handle the full clinical encounter at Community Health and Wellness Center of Miami (history, results, and treatment) so nothing gets compressed or lost in translation when a patient needs to ask a follow-up question or understand a medication regimen.

Hepatitis A, B, and C Tested Alongside the Standard Panel

Rated 3.7 out of 5 from 109 reviews

Borinquen Medical Centers in Doral functions as a community health center, weaving STI care into full-service primary medicine: meaning the standard panel, same-visit bacterial treatment, sliding-scale fees, and HPV and hepatitis vaccines are already part of the practice. Appointments required.

Spanish and Haitian Creole Spoken Directly Here

Borinquen Medical Centers carries its clinical work in Spanish and Haitian Creole, with interpretation available for additional languages: a standing capacity that benefits anyone whose clearest thinking, sharpest questions, and most precise symptom descriptions surface in a language other than English. That directness shapes every part of care, from intake to treatment explanation.

PrEP and PEP Prescribed and Managed On-Site

Borinquen prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, which means ongoing prevention planning doesn't require stepping outside the practice: follow-up labs, dosing questions, and medication management stay with the same clinical team that handles testing.

Herpes and Hepatitis Testing Beyond the Basic Four

Herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C testing aren't routinely offered where STI panels stop at gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. Borinquen Medical Centers runs all of them, along with TB testing, so exposures that wouldn't surface on a standard screen don't go undetected.

Herpes and Hepatitis Tested at the Same Appointment

Leaving herpes or hepatitis off a panel means a separate appointment, a separate lab, and a gap where an undetected infection keeps progressing. University of Miami Health System tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard bacterial and viral panel. One visit closes all of those gaps at once.

University of Miami Health System prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, pairing each with medication adherence education and counseling, so patients starting or continuing either regimen have structured support that keeps the prevention working as intended.

Read full overview

No Fee Applies to Every Service Here

Nova Medical Services carries no charge for any test, treatment, vaccine, or prevention medication it provides. PrEP, PEP, DoxyPEP, hepatitis B treatment, hepatitis C treatment, TB treatment, HPV vaccine, the full panel. For anyone without a regular provider or paying out of pocket, that means no bill arrives after any visit, for anything.

Full Clinical Care Conducted Entirely in Spanish

Nova Medical Services conducts care fully in Spanish, not through a relay service, but as the clinic's operating language. For someone managing an ongoing prescription like PrEP or navigating hepatitis C treatment, being able to ask dosing questions, understand lab results, and discuss medication adherence in Spanish shapes whether that care actually works.

PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed at This Clinic

Nova Medical Services prescribes all three current biomedical prevention tools: daily oral PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP for post-exposure HIV prophylaxis, and DoxyPEP. Doxycycline taken after sexual exposure to reduce bacterial STI risk. Having all three available at the same clinic means prevention strategies can be combined or adjusted as circumstances change.

STDs & HIV in Miami-Dade County: the local picture

How reported STI rates in Miami-Dade County, the county that includes West Miami, compare with Florida and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~26% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.

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.

Miami-Dade County recorded 44.3 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Miami-Dade County residents living with HIV, 92% know their status · 68.9% are in care · 60.5% 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.

Pregnant or planning to be? Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when

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 Miami-Dade County tests for syphilis.

Local context

About West Miami, FL

US 41 cuts straight through the heart of West Miami, and for most residents a clinic visit means getting in the car and driving it, whether toward the Coral Gables corridor or north on the Palmetto Expressway to wherever the nearest listed option sits. That commute reality matters more than it might seem: with rent running well above a thousand dollars a month for nearly half of households here, cost and scheduling trade-offs shape which appointments actually get kept. The community skews toward families rather than solo renters. Average households here run large, and the majority of adults are paired up, often managing shared calendars, school pickups, and multiple jobs between two people.

About a third of households clear six figures, but a solid share do not, and the $1,515 median rent leaves less slack for discretionary health spending than that income split might suggest. Young adults in their late teens and twenties make up a meaningful slice of the population, and because they tend to be forming new relationships while juggling work and housing costs, low-cost and low-time-cost options are the ones most likely to be used. For a city where the average home holds more than three people, one person skipping a test is rarely a private matter.

Confidentiality & consent in Florida Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Florida 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).

Can a minor consent on their own?

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

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Florida 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.
