What our patients are saying
It was a quick, simple, and seamless process. Would recommend to anyone looking for same day COVID test result documentation.I’m having surgery so I needed a covid test. I scheduled with a big pharmacy but they sent me away.I was panicking so I called Premium Health. Phone support was very helpful, they sent me to the Belmont location in Chicago. The person at the location was quick, helpful, professional and patient…. Highly recommend!!!Needed a rapid test, they were fast, easy instructions to follow and the nurse helping me was super friendly. I’m recommending all my friends and the people that work for me to come here. Amazing service. Appreciate that it was simple too and I was on my way without waiting too long. Thank you!Frequently Asked Questions
Why is RT-PCR better than Rapid Antigen?
The RT-PCR test is processed at a high-complexity laboratory and is generally much more accurate than the Antigen test. The RT-PCR test recognizes the virus DNA itself, whereas the Antigen test recognizes the protein made by the virus. As such, the RT-PCR test is able to recognize the virus at a much earlier stage after exposure, whereas the Rapid Antigen test detects the presence of the virus at a later stage.
For patients that don’t have any symptoms and were exposed, we generally recommend the RT-PCR test.
What type of tests can I get?
We provide the RT-PCR test, which is the most accurate test and is accepted by most travel destinations.
We also provide Rapid Antigen tests, which provide speedy results but are less accurate than the RT-PCR tests.
