Southeast Healthcare in Martins Ferry runs on a sliding-scale fee, accepts Medicaid and most insurance, and tests for HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and hepatitis C. With same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and an appointment required to be seen.
Southeast Healthcare in Martins Ferry treats hepatitis C on-site, which means a confirmed diagnosis moves directly into a managed treatment plan without sending patients elsewhere to find a specialist or start over with a new provider.
Chasing prevention medications across multiple providers means gaps, a delayed PrEP start, a DoxyPEP prescription that never materializes. Southeast Healthcare prescribes and manages PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP from a single practice, so none of the three require a separate referral chain to access.
Southeast Healthcare in Martins Ferry has interpretation services available for non-English languages as a staffed part of care: meaning the clinical conversation, history-taking, and treatment discussion all move through a live interpreter rather than a workaround assembled after the fact.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Belmont County, the county that includes Yorkville, compare with Ohio and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~19% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#59 of 88 Ohio counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 33% of the state
| Infection | Belmont County | Ohio | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 208 135 cases ▼ 55% | 461.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 27.7 18 cases ▼ 84% | 168 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 1.5 1 cases ▼ 91% | 16.3 | 15.8 |

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 Belmont County, chlamydia has fallen from 212 to 208 per 100,000 (2%), gonorrhea has fallen from 97.7 to 27.7 per 100,000 (72%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 1.5 to 1.5 per 100,000.
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 Belmont County.
Local HIV snapshot
Belmont County HIV care continuum (2023)
Among Belmont County residents living with HIV, 78.7% are in care · 69.3% 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 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 Belmont County tests for syphilis.

Local context
The creek path behind Mazeroski Park draws neighbors out most evenings, and that same spirit of accessibility shapes how Yorkville approaches sexual health. Testing services in and around Yorkville meet people where they are, at clinics that know confidentiality isn't performance or an afterthought, but a foundation. The modest cost of living here means residents often prioritize where their dollars go, and testing sites work with that reality by offering straightforward pricing and sliding-scale care without the shame that can keep someone away from getting answers. Young adults moving through their twenties and thirties form a significant part of Yorkville's makeup, and many are in the years when a single screening or follow-up can shift everything.
Whether someone's in a new relationship, between partners, or simply taking stock, the ability to walk into a clinic without fanfare (to get tested, get results, and move forward) matters more here than anywhere else. That quiet assurance is what the providers listed on this page understand. Testing for chlamydia, gonorrhea, HIV, syphilis, and other infections happens with real discretion in Yorkville. No gossip.
No judgment baked into the waiting room. Just the care that comes from a place that values straightforward health and the dignity of getting it done.

Two things that actually depend on Ohio 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 Ohio, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Ohio 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.
