Duly Health and Care in Lombard accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, with a standard fee structure for the full STI panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and TB) plus same-visit bacterial treatment. Appointments are required.
Duly Health and Care prescribes both PrEP and PEP directly, meaning the clinician managing your panel can also initiate or maintain your prevention regimen. No separate referral chain to navigate before a prescription reaches you.
When hepatitis C goes diagnosed-but-untreated, the gap is usually a second appointment at a separate specialist. With its own scheduling delay and insurance hurdle. At Duly Health and Care in Lombard, treatment for hepatitis C is managed on-site, so a positive antibody result doesn't stall at the diagnosis stage.
Leaving herpes or hepatitis off a panel means a second visit, often a second copay, to a different provider once a gap surfaces. Duly Health and Care tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, closing that gap in a single appointment.

Appointments cover herpes, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and rapid HIV testing, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and Spanish-language care on staff.

As a federally designated Title X family planning site, Planned Parenthood of Illinois in Aurora provides legally confidential services for minors. Meaning care isn't contingent on a parent's insurance card or knowledge. That standing protection is built into how the clinic operates, not offered case by case.
Planned Parenthood of Illinois in Aurora prescribes PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP from within the same appointment, which means prevention planning doesn't require a separate specialist visit or a second round of scheduling to act on what you learned during your test.

DuPage County Health Department in Wheaton screens for gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, rapid and conventional, by appointment, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and sliding-scale fees that, for most services, reach zero.
Plenty of clinics prescribe PrEP and handle PEP, but DoxyPEP, the post-exposure doxycycline protocol reducing bacterial STI risk, stays off the menu at many of them. DuPage County Health Department in Wheaton prescribes and manages all three, meaning prevention strategy can actually be calibrated to a person's full picture rather than split across providers.
Spanish-language services at DuPage County Health Department in Wheaton run through staff who conduct the appointment directly in Spanish (counseling, prevention education, and medication adherence conversations included) so clinical detail isn't filtered through a secondary layer.
DuPage County Health Department in Wheaton structures its fees so that the full scope (testing, STI treatment, PrEP, DoxyPEP, Mpox and HPV vaccines, HIV counseling) carries no charge. That isn't a discount tier; it's the operating model for the clinic's services.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in DuPage County, the county that includes Woodridge, compare with Illinois 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.
#48 of 102 Illinois counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 53% of the state
| Infection | DuPage County | Illinois | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 261.8 2,412 cases ▼ 53% | 557.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 57.4 529 cases ▼ 72% | 202.3 | 179.5 |

| Syphilis (early) | 4.6 42 cases ▼ 58% | 10.9 | 16 |

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 DuPage County, chlamydia has risen from 237.5 to 261.8 per 100,000 (10%), gonorrhea has fallen from 60.4 to 57.4 per 100,000 (5%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 3.8 to 2.4 per 100,000 (37%).

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 DuPage County.
Local HIV snapshot
DuPage County HIV care continuum (2023)
DuPage County recorded 7 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among DuPage County residents living with HIV, 73.4% are in care · 62.5% 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.
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 DuPage County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Belmont-area renters navigating $1,300-plus monthly costs already know how little room there is in a budget for anything that feels optional, and for younger adults still sorting out new relationships, careers, and living situations, STI screening can easily land in that "deal with it later" category. Woodridge's share of residents in the peak incidence years is substantial enough that accessible testing genuinely matters here, not as a theoretical good but as a practical one. IL 53 and Boughton Road connect most of Woodridge's neighborhoods to clinics without requiring a long highway run, which matters when an appointment has to fit between a shift and dinner.
What's less obvious in the numbers is that Woodridge skews toward established households, majority homeowners, majority married, average family pushing past three people. The renters and younger singles concentrated near Belmont are a smaller slice of that picture, which is exactly why options that don't demand much advance planning (short drives, flexible hours, transparent costs) are worth knowing about before you need them.
Getting there
Woodridge scores 10.86/20 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 Illinois 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 Illinois, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Illinois 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.
