Georgette G

I had a great experience getting tested at premium health. The process was pretty easy and quick. The staff were super friendly and professional. They were patient and able to answer all my concerns. Most importantly my results came back very quickly. I highly recommend this place.
Sara H

Wonderful team. I called sick and worried about insurance coverage for a PCR test. The nurse on the phone was so sweet and reassuring! She helped answer all my questions and make sure I had an appointment and knew what I needed to bring. The person at the test was really friendly and answered all my questions.
Highly recommend if you need a test

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. 

Where can I get tested?

You can get tested at any of our locations. You can find a list of our locations at premiumhealth.us/locations
