How we chose these 10 clinics
- Every one is on the CDC’s GetTested locatorThe wider CDC directory we draw from has over 16,000 entries. Only the ones GetTested also lists can appear here, and all 10 clinics below do.
- Listings that name fewer than three tests are left outEven on GetTested, 527 listings name fewer than three tests. We don’t show them anywhere.
- Unverified pregnancy centers are never shownThe CDC lists some pregnancy centers whose STD testing we couldn’t verify. We don’t list them anywhere.
- Cost is stated the way the CDC lists itFree, sliding scale or insurance accepted, as each clinic reports it to the CDC. We don’t estimate prices, and if the listing says nothing, the card says “Fees not listed.”

There were 71 new HIV diagnoses in Durham County in 2023. HIV is the one infection where how soon you test changes which test you need — an RNA test detects it far earlier than a standard antibody test.
Durham County reported 3,050 chlamydia cases in 2023, a rate of 905.3 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.
HIV prevention & treatment
PrEP, DoxyPEP & Online Treatment
A test result is the start, not the end. If you are negative and want to stay that way, PrEP and DoxyPEP cut the risk of a future infection. If you are positive, most STIs can be treated without setting foot in a clinic. Both are available to people in Durham by video visit, prescribed by clinicians licensed in North Carolina.
