A family medicine clinic with STI care built in
Premier Care Family Medicine isn't a specialty STI clinic—it's a full primary-care practice that happens to offer solid STI testing and treatment. A single visit can cover testing for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, and TB, plus on-site treatment for bacterial infections and counseling on prevention. If you're already seeing a primary-care doctor or want one, this is the natural place to handle sexual health alongside everything else.
Testing, treatment, and prevention in one place
You can get tested for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, and TB, and bacterial infections are treated the same visit.

You'll see a provider who can test you for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis A/B/C, and HIV in the same appointment, then treat bacterial infections on the spot and discuss prevention strategies—whether that's vaccines, PrEP, or safer-sex planning.
Testing and treatment happen together
If you test positive for chlamydia, gonorrhea, or syphilis, treatment is available the same visit. For HIV and hepatitis B or C, the clinic manages ongoing care after diagnosis. Hepatitis A and B vaccines are on-site, and if you're at ongoing risk, the provider can start you on PrEP—a daily pill that prevents HIV infection—without a separate referral.
Costs vary; Spanish interpretation available
There's a standard visit fee, and the clinic uses a sliding scale for those who qualify; Medicaid and insurance are accepted. You'll need an appointment—call ahead rather than walk in—and Spanish interpretation is available if you need it.

Sliding scale means real access
HEALing Community Health accepts donations, Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance, but the backbone is a sliding-scale fee structure: if you have no income or can't afford the standard fee, you pay nothing.

You can get screened for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C in one visit. Bacterial STIs—chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis—can be treated on the spot.

If prevention is on your mind, the clinic offers PrEP for anyone who needs it, plus HPV and hepatitis A vaccines.
Appointment required
You'll need to book ahead; walk-ins aren't an option here. That structure keeps wait times predictable and ensures you're seen promptly once you arrive.
Best for those balancing cost and care

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.

Pregnant or planning to be?
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 Paulding County tests for syphilis.

Privacy
Confidentiality & consent in Georgia
The questions Brownsville residents ask most before testing, answered under Georgia law — which sets confidentiality and consent the same way statewide. Prefer to keep your name off the record? See our guide to anonymous STD testing.
Can a minor consent?
In Georgia, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own — no parental permission is required. A physician is permitted (but not required) to inform a parent.
Will it show on my insurance?
If you use health insurance, an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) may be mailed to the policyholder. Under HIPAA you can ask your insurer in writing to send communications confidentially. To keep a test fully private, choose a self-pay private lab, an at-home kit, or a public health clinic — none of these bill your insurance.
Anonymous & no-insurance options
Public health clinics and at-home kits let you test without involving insurance or your regular doctor. Many Georgia health departments offer free or low-cost STI testing, and several sites provide anonymous HIV testing.
Can my partner be treated too?
Yes. Georgia permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication to pass to your partner — no separate exam or appointment needed for them.
