About 1 mile east of St. Petersburg in Saint Petersburg: Bayfront Health offers STI and HIV testing by appointment, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and access to PrEP for prevention.

Read full overviewShow less
Book ahead for a full visit
Bayfront Health requires an appointment, which means you'll have dedicated time for testing, counseling, and treatment all in one visit. If you're diagnosed with chlamydia, gonorrhea, or syphilis, you can start antibiotics the same day; HIV and hepatitis results may take longer and connect you to specialist care. Staff speak Spanish and French, so language won't be a barrier.
Screens for nine infections, treats most on-site
The clinic tests for HIV (both rapid and conventional), chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis B and C, and TB. Beyond testing, Bayfront manages hepatitis B and C treatment, offers TB care, and provides HPV and hepatitis A vaccines—so a single appointment can address prevention and treatment together.
Insurance, Medicaid, and a standard fee
Bayfront accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance. If you're uninsured, expect a standard visit fee; ask about the exact cost when you book. PrEP is available for those at ongoing risk of HIV, making this a place to start prevention as well as testing.
Best for those ready to commit to follow-up
Because appointments are required, Bayfront works best if you can plan ahead and return for confirmatory tests or ongoing treatment. It's ideal if you want testing, vaccines, and prevention (like PrEP) coordinated in one place, and especially useful if you speak Spanish or French.
About 1 mile southeast of St. Petersburg in St. Petersburg: BayCare uses a sliding-scale fee structure—Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance all accepted—making it accessible whether you're insured or paying out of pocket.

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?

Privacy
Confidentiality & consent in Florida
The questions St. Petersburg 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.
