STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Clark County, the county that includes Withee, compare with Wisconsin and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~13% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#46 of 72 Wisconsin counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 36% of the state
| Infection | Clark County | Wisconsin | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 172.5 60 cases ▼ 59% | 422.8 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 14.4 5 cases ▼ 88% | 118.5 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | — no data | 9.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 8.6 3 cases ▲ 39% | 6.2 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 2.9 1 cases ▼ 80% | 14.7 | 29.5 |

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 Clark County, chlamydia has risen from 161.6 to 172.5 per 100,000 (7%), and gonorrhea has fallen from 23.1 to 14.4 per 100,000 (38%).
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 Clark County.
Local HIV snapshot
Clark County HIV care continuum (2023)
Clark County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 5.1 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Clark County residents living with HIV, 81.3% are in care · 81.3% 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 Clark County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Testing in and around Withee calls for honest reckoning with distance. The town itself sits small, and the nearest clinic offering confidential STI screening requires a drive. Whether that's toward a larger center or a regional health department facility depends on which service fits your schedule and comfort level. State Highway 29 connects Withee to those resources, though "nearby" is relative when you're weighing time off work against privacy and convenience.
Young adults in Withee, those navigating their late teens through thirties, often find themselves caught between wanting routine screening and the friction of travel. Confidentiality matters acutely in a place where you're likely to recognize faces at the grocery store. Testing listed on this page includes options discreet enough to let you get answers without broadcasting your business to the whole county. Some facilities honor walk-in visits; others require appointments that let you plan the trip without last-minute scrambling.
The reality is that proximity to care in a smaller town sometimes means accepting a slightly longer timeline or reaching out to a health department rather than an in-town clinic. That trade-off, a few more miles for a place where your information stays sealed, is one many Withee residents make deliberately. Knowing where to go and what to expect removes half the barrier.
Getting there
At 4.87/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Withee generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

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.
