A Title X tag flags centers funded for confidential family-planning services; confirm current participation when you call.

Planned Parenthood Mar Monte in Woodland brings family planning depth to STI care, testing for HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and herpes on a sliding-scale fee accepted alongside Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance. With same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and Spanish spoken on staff.
Spanish-language care at Planned Parenthood Mar Monte is staffed directly, not patched in through a scheduling request. Non-Spanish languages are also available through interpretation services, meaning clinical conversations (exposure history, medication instructions, follow-up plans) move at the speed of care rather than the speed of logistics.
Title X designation at this clinic means confidential family planning services for minors aren't a policy preference, they're a federally protected operational requirement. That status also anchors the sliding-scale structure across the full patient population, regardless of insurance or income documentation.
Going without PrEP while waiting for a referral to sort itself out means weeks of unprotected exposure that can't be walked back. Planned Parenthood Mar Monte prescribes and manages PrEP directly, and PEP is available for post-exposure prevention. No secondary appointment at a separate facility required.

Davis Sexual Health Clinic, DaSH, operates on a sliding-scale fee structure, accepts Medicaid and most insurance, and tests for HIV (rapid), gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections; walk-ins are welcome and Spanish is spoken on-site.
DaSH carries Spanish-language capacity directly within the clinic and extends interpretation services to other languages, a standing resource that matters for anyone who navigates medical decisions in a language other than English. Health history, dosing instructions, and prevention counseling land in full rather than filtered.
DaSH prescribes DoxyPEP, doxycycline taken after a potential bacterial STI exposure, alongside both PrEP and PEP, covering the full current range of biomedical HIV and bacterial STI prevention tools. Uninsured patients have a dedicated pathway for PrEP access, and HIV medical management is handled on-site.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Yolo County, the county that includes Woodland, compare with California and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~28% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#20 of 58 California counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 66% of the state
| Infection | Yolo County | California | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 416.7 919 cases ▼ 15% | 491.1 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 101.6 224 cases ▼ 47% | 190.2 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 11.3 25 cases ▼ 31% | 16.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 5.4 12 cases ▼ 72% | 19.1 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 31.3 69 cases ▼ 33% | 46.7 | 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 Yolo County, chlamydia has risen from 409.4 to 416.7 per 100,000 (2%), gonorrhea has fallen from 142.8 to 101.6 per 100,000 (29%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 15.2 to 11.3 per 100,000 (26%).

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 Yolo County.
Local HIV snapshot
Yolo County HIV care continuum (2023)
Yolo County recorded 11.5 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.9 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Yolo County residents living with HIV, 79.4% are in care · 71.3% 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 Yolo County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
CA 113, the Vic Fazio Highway, is the straightest route out of Woodland toward the nearest testing options listed on this page, and for many residents that drive is a real calculation: $1,200 a month in rent leaves little cushion for appointments that feel optional until they suddenly aren't. Close to half of households here rent rather than own, which tends to mean shorter leases, more moves, and the kind of schedule churn that pushes routine health care to the back of the queue.
That life-stage pressure lands unevenly. Woodland's share of people in their late teens and twenties is the segment where chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis concentrate most heavily, and the options listed on this page include sliding-scale and low-cost visits that make the cost barrier smaller than most people assume. Getting to one still means time on the road, so knowing in advance which sites on this page offer same-day or walk-in hours saves a wasted trip up East Main Street and back.
The household picture here is notably family-oriented: average households run larger than the state norm, and half of adults are married. Routine STI screening fits that reality quietly and practically, the way a lab draw before a partner's annual physical does. Knowing your status is just part of keeping a household steady.
Getting there
Woodland scores 13.37/20 on the EPA walkability index, so many trips are walkable or a short ride, though a car still gives you the widest choice of testing centers.

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 California 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 California, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
California 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.
