What our patients are saying
Not going to lie. My first impression was that this site was kind of shady because it’s outside of a lonely business area in the parking lot. Just a tent, foldable table and a person with a box of supplies. To my surprise, it’s totally legit and very quick. They have you fill out your info online like most sites do but, you have to talk to their medical professional via video call before your test. It was quick, easy and received my results in the 16 hours they claimed. I had my appointment at 6pm, went in at 5:40pm and before 6pm I was done and received my results by 10am. I would definitely recommend Premium Health. Was exceptionally satisfied.Quick and easy covid nasal swab test at a tent in the parking lot. Technician was friendly, informative, and professional. We were in and out in a few minutes.Making the appointment was easy and they were very responsive to my questions. Minor confusion regarding where my appointment was supposed to be but very quickly cleared up. This place is classified as a “walk up” test site so as long as there is not a surge in the need for testing, may not need an appointment but it goes quicker if you do. I would highly recommend this site. Got my results in a timely manner, as promised. Insurance used.
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.
