All of the tests we offer are approved by FDA under the Emergency Use Authorizations and are subject to their own limitations. But without a doubt, they are the best in accuracy that are currently available in the market.
All tests require a physical exam. Not all infections are COVID, so the patient will be examined by a qualified medical provider each and every time.
Insurance Information
Although most Covid related visits used to be covered 100% by your insurance without any copay or deductible, that is no longer the case with most insurance companies. Please check with your own insurance company to make sure.
Government Funding
Also as of March 22nd, 2022, there is no longer any government funding available for un-insured for COVID related illnesses. The vaccines remain free of charge regardless of having insurance or not. As well as the cost of Paxlovid. Although, those funds may soon be ending as well.
Please refer to FDA website for all of our tests’ letters of Emergency Use Authorizations and other useful information.
TO GET YOUR RESULTS FASTER, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ACTIVATED YOUR PATIENT PORTAL WITH US.
New Vaccine Information
Current vaccines available at all of our locations for COVID-19 for those who qualify:
Pfizer, MRNA vaccine, for those ages 5 and up
Moderna, MRNA vaccine, for those ages 18 and up
Novavax, made similarly to the traditional Flu vaccine, not an MRNA vaccine, for those 12 and up
Moderna/SPIKEVAX (starting 9/3/22), MRNA vaccine, has additional protection for Omicron, given as a booster only for 18 and up
We now have limited doses of Monkeypox vaccine for those who are at high risk.

Our goal is to Examine you, test you, and IF you have COVID-19 and are considered high risk, then offer you the treatment that is best for you, all within the same visit and without an appointment.
