COVID Testing

Covid testing, including specimen collection, is conducted by one of our physicians in the practice (not by a nurse or MA).

The physician will evaluate the history, perform an exam as needed, and recommend which test(s) should be done.

The total fee includes an office visit, a charge for the test performed and/or if necessary, a specimen handling charge for samples sent to an outside lab.

Tests are performed in our CLIA certified laboratory and provide same day results allowing for superior quality of care.

A patient's infectious state is ascertained immediately allowing decisions to be made regarding isolation, quarantine, and ability to return to routine activities.
