A public health clinic that handles the full picture
This is a county health department—the kind of place designed to serve anyone who walks in needing sexual health care, TB screening, or prevention. You come in for a test and can often leave with treatment the same day if you test positive for chlamydia, gonorrhea, or syphilis. They also offer mpox and HPV vaccines, hepatitis A vaccination, and TB treatment on-site, so you're not bouncing between clinics.
Testing and treatment without the cost barrier
HIV testing is free, and the rest of your visit runs on a sliding scale—meaning what you pay depends on your income. Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance all get accepted, but if you're uninsured and paying out of pocket, the sliding scale keeps it manageable. They'll test you for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, TB, and HIV (both rapid and conventional), and if you need it, they treat bacterial STIs right there.
You'll need an appointment, and interpretation is available
Call ahead to book your visit—walk-ins aren't an option here. Spanish interpretation is available, and they can arrange interpretation for other languages too, so language won't stop you from getting care.
Best for anyone needing affordable, no-nonsense STI and TB care
If you're uninsured or on a tight budget, this is your clinic. If you need same-visit testing and treatment, or if you want vaccines alongside your STI screening, the public health model here means everything happens in one place. It's straightforward, it's affordable, and it's built to serve the community.

STD testing near Greencastle in Warren County
Just outside Greencastle? These nearby Warren County communities have their own testing guides — clinics, at-home kits, and free screening close to home.
Here's how reported STI rates in Warren County — the county that includes Greencastle — compare with Kentucky and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data.
An estimated ~40% of Warren County residents are aged 15–34 (ACS) — the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally, which is why local screening access matters here.
Lower chlamydia rate than 8% of the state's 120 counties (ranked #11)

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.

Among Warren County residents living with HIV, 89.9% are in care · 85.1% are virally suppressed.
Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers — it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.

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 Warren County tests for syphilis.

Privacy
Confidentiality & consent in Kentucky
The questions Greencastle residents ask most before testing, answered under Kentucky 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 Kentucky, 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 Kentucky health departments offer free or low-cost STI testing, and several sites provide anonymous HIV testing.
Can my partner be treated too?
Yes. Kentucky 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.
