Clinics and testing sites in and near Barrow
1 clinic is listed below, closest first — including 1 that lists sliding-scale fees. Public clinics generally take longer to return results than a private lab, and several test on set days only, so it is worth calling ahead. If you would rather not wait or give your details at a public clinic, an at-home collection kit posts back to a lab and needs no local appointment at all.

North Slope Borough reported 96 chlamydia cases in 2023, a rate of 905.4 per 100,000 residents. That is above the national average, which is why routine testing matters here more than it does in most of the country — and most people who have chlamydia or gonorrhea have no symptoms at all, so waiting for something to feel wrong is not a strategy.
