Description
We have a safe area at the rear of the clinic for testing patients requiring Covid swabbing who are enrolled at our practice. At present we are offering this service if access to a Community Testing service is not available or the wait times at a Community Testing Centre are too long. Covid swabbing is by appointment only and may be weather dependant. If you meet the current criteria for Covid swabbing or have been directed to be swabbed by the Regional Public Health Service, please contact our nursing team to arrange how we can provide you with this service.
We provide travel Covid PCR and Supervised RAT tests for our enrolled population. We also provide diagnostic PCR and RAT tests where needed to our enrolled clients.
This clinic provides pre-departure testing for patients enrolled with practice who require pre flight Covid testing. There is both a consultation charge and a laboratory fee for pre-travel Covid-19 swabbing. Travellers are provided with an electronic record of their swab result and an accompanying letter detailing their clinical risk of having possibly encountered Covid-19. Patients are required to make a face to face appointment for pre-travel swabbing and are asked to advise Reception of the nature of their appointment at the time of booking.
