Private clinic, appointment-based, Spanish interpretation available
Infinity Healthcare Group LLC operates as a private practice where you book an appointment and come in for testing and treatment on the same day. If you speak Spanish, interpretation is available.

Standard private-practice fees; Medicare and insurance accepted
Expect a standard visit fee typical of private clinics—higher than a public health department but often lower if you have Medicare or insurance, which the clinic accepts. No sliding scale or free services; cost depends on your coverage.

Read full overviewShow less
Sliding scale keeps it affordable
Most visits run on a sliding scale tied to income, and Medicaid and Medicare both cover care here. If you're uninsured and interested in PrEP, the clinic covers that cost entirely—a major advantage for anyone who can't absorb the usual price tag.
Tests and treats in one visit
You can screen for HIV (rapid or conventional), hepatitis A, B, and C, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and herpes all here. Bacterial infections like chlamydia and gonorrhea can be treated the same visit; HIV and hepatitis B care is managed on-site, and the clinic also offers PEP for recent exposures and hepatitis A vaccination.
Appointments required; Spanish spoken
You'll need to call ahead to book—walk-ins aren't an option. Spanish interpretation is available, which matters if that's your stronger language.
Best for cost-conscious seekers
If you're paying out of pocket or uninsured and want PrEP without sticker shock, or if you need sliding-scale STI care with no insurance hassle, this clinic removes a real barrier.

Testing, treatment, and prevention in one visit
The clinic screens for HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and herpes. Bacterial infections like gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis are treated on site immediately after diagnosis. For HIV and hepatitis prevention, the clinic offers PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis), HPV and hepatitis A vaccines, and counseling on how to stay protected.
Costs that fit working people
There's a standard visit fee, but Medicare and most insurance plans are accepted, which often brings your out-of-pocket cost down significantly. If you're uninsured or paying cash, ask about the fee structure when you call or arrive; many community clinics negotiate based on income.
Best for people who value convenience

Insurance covers most; uninsured pay a standard fee

Tests for eight infections, treats bacterial STIs on the spot

Walk in anytime; no appointment needed
You don't need to call ahead or book a slot. Show up when it suits your schedule, get tested, and if it's a bacterial STI, leave with treatment the same day.

STD testing near Plantation in Broward County
Just outside Plantation? These nearby Broward County communities have their own testing guides — clinics, at-home kits, and free screening close to home.
Here's how reported STI rates in Broward County — the county that includes Plantation — compare with Florida and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data.
An estimated ~24% of Broward 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 7% of the state's 67 counties (ranked #6)

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 Broward County residents living with HIV, 96.2% know their status · 78.9% are in care · 72.2% 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 Broward County tests for syphilis.

Testing too early can return a false negative — confirm timing with a Plantation-area provider.
These are the federal Medicare reference prices for processing each lab test. Public clinics and the
community health centers serving Plantation often test free or on a sliding scale; private labs and at-home kits
bundle several tests into one fee. Use this as a per-test benchmark before you pay out of pocket, or see the full
guide to STD test costs for insurance, free, and at-home options.

Prevention & treatment
PrEP, prevention & online treatment
Testing is one step. For residents of Plantation, telehealth covers the rest of the picture — HIV-prevention
medication (PrEP) and DoxyPEP to lower future risk, and discreet online treatment if a result comes back
positive. All prescribed by licensed U.S. clinicians.
Prevent (PrEP & DoxyPEP)
Daily or on-demand medication that prevents HIV — and DoxyPEP, which lowers the risk of syphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhea.

substitute for emergency care.
Privacy
Confidentiality & consent in Florida
The questions Plantation residents ask most before testing, answered under Florida 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 Florida, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own — no parental permission is required.
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 Florida health departments offer free or low-cost STI testing, and several sites provide anonymous HIV testing.
Can my partner be treated too?
Yes. Florida 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.
