Ask about testing for flu symptoms and the next step in care.

COVID-19

Discuss symptoms, exposure, and whether testing is appropriate.

RSV

Ask about current testing availability and assessment.

Adenovirus

Respiratory illnesses can have overlapping symptoms. Testing can inform care, but a result must be considered alongside your symptoms and health history.

Seasonal testing pricing

Testing-only price listed by the clinic.

+$45

Additional provider-review / treatment option listed by the clinic.

Confirm current prices, which viruses are included in the $30 test, and exactly what the additional $45 covers before your visit. Prescriptions require a clinical decision; ask whether medication and pharmacy costs are separate. Other visits or tests may have different fees.

Make your visit easier

1. Call ahead

Describe your symptoms and their start date. Confirm hours, availability, and arrival instructions before coming in.

2. Know the plan

Ask which test is recommended, how the sample is collected, and when to expect results.

3. Understand next steps

Discuss whether provider evaluation, follow-up, or additional testing is needed.

Some flu and COVID-19 treatments work best when started early. Contact a healthcare provider promptly if you are at higher risk of severe illness.

Frequently asked questions

Are same-day tests available?

The clinic advertises same-day seasonal testing. Call first to confirm appointment and test availability, collection arrangements, and result timing.

Does a negative test rule out infection?

No. Results depend on the test and timing. Ask your provider whether repeat or additional testing is needed if symptoms continue or worsen.

Will I automatically receive medication?

No. Treatment depends on the clinical assessment and what is appropriate for the illness. A test result alone does not guarantee a prescription.

Can I get a broader medical assessment?

Yes—ask about a visit through General Family Practice. Follow the link below to learn more about primary care and routine medical services.

What if I need other laboratory tests?

Our Laboratory Testing page explains broader lab services and in-office specimen collection through DLO processes. Those services and charges are separate from this seasonal testing offer.

Know when to seek urgent help

For trouble breathing, persistent chest pain, confusion, inability to stay awake, or other severe symptoms, seek emergency care immediately or call 911. Do not wait for a routine testing appointment.
