How long does a strep test take in Chestnut Hill?

A strep test usually only takes a few minutes. A throat swab is used for the strep A test, whereas a cotton swab or a urine sample is used for the strep B test. Your healthcare provider can tell you how long your strep test will take based on the procedure used.

What happens if you test positive for group B strep?

Adults seldom show symptoms or get sick with Group B strep, but it can be dangerous for newborns. Antibiotics are commonly given to pregnant women who test positive for group B strep to keep the illness from spreading to the baby as it goes through the birth canal. Because the infant will not be exposed to germs in the delivery canal, antibiotics are not required for women with group B strep who are having a scheduled Cesarean section.

How much does a strep test cost in Chestnut Hill?

A strep test's price is influenced by a variety of criteria, including provider rates, the type of test (throat swab, vaginal swab, or urinalysis), geographic region, and if your health plan covers this treatment. Getting an estimate from your health insurance company or the step test company is the quickest way to figure out how much a strep test will cost.

I went to urgent care in Leominster at 6:45 this evening. I can not believe how great the care I received there was. Ligia was pleasant, patient and determined to help me with my ear problem. She could have easily given me drops and told me to come back after a few days, especially being almost closing time on a Friday evening. She did just the opposite! She worked on me until I could literally hear again. When I complimented her she said “I’m just doing my job”with a smile on her face. She was more than just “doing her job” she was being a true professional. Couldn’t be more pleased with my experience at the Urgent Care near Marshall’s. Thank you!
