anonymous testing

Just spent a couple of hours Googling for "anonymous testing syphilis gonorrhea" and got nothing. Lots of references to anonymous HIV testing and "confidential" STD testing with ubiquitous reference to "reportable diseases" (i.e., confidential means they know your name but promise not to tell but the sex cops _will_ come looking for you). As far I can see, all states REQUIRE doctors to report all instances of syphilis and gonorrhea to health officials. ACLU has an extensive piece on why coercive notification won't work ( www.aclu.org/hiv/gen/11561pub19980301.html ) but that's of little comfort when the sex police are going to knock on your door anyway.
Does anybody know _how_ to find a doctor that won't throw you under the bus and report you to the local Health Department?
