They saw me quickly. The intake worker at the desk with glasses was super friendly! I think the other lady was new but she did her best! Best of all, the NP was very knowledgeable and knew how to deal with an issue that I’ve not heard before even from doctors. Very personable and efficient.

The overall experience was pretty good. Dr seemed to listen to what all I had to say. The lady who came in 1st to get some info seemed a little......tense & not happy to be there. But dr listened and was very concerned and analyzing what I said. She gave me some meds & note & suggested I stay home for rest of the weekend to rest.

COVID-19 Testing FAQs

  • How much does COVID testing cost in Indian Trail?

    In many cases, COVID testing can be free. Many state and local health departments continue to offer free testing to community residents as part of their response to the pandemic. In other cases, commercially insured patients, or those on Medicare or Medicaid, may receive testing at no out of pocket cost, or with a nominal office visit copay. For cash paying patients, or those that need rapid COVID testing which will deliver results in under an hour, COVID tests can range from $50 to $150 each. It is best to call your healthcare provider prior to getting tested to better understand the cost of the specific test you require.

  • Where can I get free COVID testing in Indian Trail?

    COVID testing is available for free under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, which includes testing for those without health insurance. Check with your Indian Trail-area health department as they are generally a good source for free COVID tests, or can at least point you in the right direction. Additionally, you can ask your primary care provider to recommend a free COVID test site.

  • Where can I get COVID testing in Indian Trail?

    COVID testing is available at many outlets near Indian Trail including urgent care centers, retail clinics, primary care offices, health departments, and more. Different venues will have different types of tests available, many at different price points. Some testing sites are allowing walk-in patients, however, many are still requiring some degree of advance booking to control patient volume.

  • Where can I get a rapid COVID test in Indian Trail?

    Rapid testing—both PCR (molecular) and antigen tests—is offered through many Indian Trail-area urgent care centers and physician offices, usually at an additional cost ranging from $50 up to $150 per test. Usually this will allow you to get results back in under an hour, and require advanced booking through the provider. However, if you can wait 24 hours for your results, many labs are turning around send-out lab tests in that time frame, which could save you some money.

  • How to make an appointment for COVID testing in Indian Trail?

    Same-day and next day appointments for COVID testing in Indian Trail are bookable directly through Solv. Simply browse the list of healthcare providers conducting COVID tests above, find one with a “Book Online” button, and book a time that aligns with your schedule stating “COVID-19 Test” as your reason for visit.

  • Can I get tested for antibodies if I am sick with COVID-19 Indian Trail?

    An antibody test for COVID-19 might inform you if you previously had a coronavirus infection. Because it can take between 1–3 weeks after an infection for your body to develop these antibodies, an antibody test during an active infection would not be successful. To see if you are currently infected, you need a viral test.

  • Do I need a COVID test if I have been vaccinated?

    Even if you have been fully vaccinated, if you have been exposed to someone who has COVID-19, experts believe that you should be tested yourself, particularly if you are experiencing cold and flu symptoms commonly aligned with the coronavirus.

  • How long does COVID testing take?

    Getting a COVID test is quick. Most tests are done with a nasal swab, which takes less than a minute to swab both nostrils. Depending on where you get your COVID test, this means you could be in and out of the testing site in as little as 10-15 minutes. During busy times—particularly around holidays—testing sites may be busier than usual and wait times may be longer.

  • How long does it take to get COVID test results in Indian Trail?

    Most labs are returning send-out molecular (PCR) COVID test results within 24-48 hours of the test. Some sites take longer, so call and ask if the reason for the test is proof for travel. Rapid COVID tests are processed on-site and are able to deliver results in under an hour, sometimes in as little as 15 min.

  • Do COVID tests detect the Delta variant and Omicron variant?

    Regular COVID tests are able to detect both the Delta variant and Omicron variant in that they can determine whether or not you have the coronavirus. However, they can't tell which variation is involved. That would necessitate genomic sequencing, which is a different process from regular virus testing that not all labs can undertake. Sequencing is uncommon and can cost up to $100 per test. Since the treatment is the same for any variant, it is not clinically useful to an individual patient to know whether the infection was caused by a variant or not.

Recent COVID-19 Testing Reviews (20)

The facility overall looked clean but reeked of old cigarette smoke thru the entire place. Both in the waiting room and when I was taken back. It hit you like a wall when you walked in. The staff was very nice but I waited for 45 minutes after my appt to be seen when there was only 1 person back there already according to the list and no one else waiting. The staff was very nice and personable, but when I left, they gave me what they said was someone else's paperwork - I walked back in after seeing my COVID test results were different than what they showed me and they grabbed it quickly, met in an office and came back with my paperwork. I didn't get a chance to see if my name was actually the one on the sheet but it seemed really sketchy the way it was different and that they were gone that long figuring it out.

So, I completely loved this place until today. Everyone from front desk, nurses and doctors have been excellent. I’ve trusted them with both of my children and myself with all of this stupid Covid testing that we have to go through every time one of my children get a cold. Why do we need to get the tests? Because when they are sick, they need a negative test result to return to school. When I bring them in for a test, I also get myself tested for two reasons…either I am also sick with symptoms AND I have asthma which is a preexisting condition! Today however, was different. Tuesday my youngest daughter tested POSITIVE. I also was tested Tuesday and was negative, although diagnosed with laryngitis and sinus infection. I was told by the doctor to come back today, Friday to be retested if I did not improve. I made an appointment for myself and my oldest daughter (at the request of her school nurse). We got there and I was told that I could get tested, but would have to pay $190! When I asked why, I was told that it was because I tested negative Tuesday. So I asked, how many days do I need to wait in between, thinking it was an issue with my insurance. I didn’t get a clear answer. When I got home, called insurance to be told that testing is always covered. When I called back to AFC, was told that basically I had been in “numerous “ times with negative results and that they now have a policy to charge people! So basically, I understand that while some people may be overusing the Covid testing system for concert or activities purposes (which is what I was told by them), there are actually people that are trying to keep themselves and their families healthy!! I won’t be back to AFC. Unfortunate that they have chosen to make money off of this situation!

Dr. Webb was very friendly and helpful, as was our nurse and the front office staff. My son had a rapid-covid test and it was a very easy and fast process.

- Verified patient on 11/2

I took my daughter very close to closing for a rapid COVID test and everyone was wonderful! It would have been easy to rush us out of there and simply complete the test but they gave us their attention and time and loved on my daughter to make her feel comfortable. The front desk staff, the nurse and the Dr. we’re all amazing. Thank you! Thankful we have you guys around the corner when we need you again

- Verified patient on 6/1

I checked in at 3:52 for my 4:00 Covid test appointment. After checking in I waited in the car until almost 4:30 to be called in. I was there until 5:15 before receiving my results. Almost 1.5 hours for the entire process.

- Verified patient on 8/13

We went in for a COVID test right before surgery. The staff was excellent and the test took less than 15 minutes.

My wife and I were fit in for a covid test. Everyone was very accommodating and professional. We certainly appreciated their service. Thanks !

Couldn’t have been easier or faster. If you need Covid testing, this is a great place.

- Verified patient on 9/15

Have been in twice for Covid testing. This place is the best urgent care i have ever been to in my life. From Necole at the front desk, the nurses on both visits and both doctors I know of no one who is nicer and has such a professional and kind bedside manner. I will be using them for future visits even though I live in another nearby state. Both times I've left feeling like someone actually cared. That's rare these days. Hats off to AFC urgent care and family care. I 💕 you!

Came for covid test . Staff were friendly , professional and worked in a timely manner.

- Verified patient on 2/6

I went in from Covid test rapid, and it only took a moment and it was rapid and there was absolutely no discomfort when they did the test. I encourage you to get a test if you feel you may have Covid or if you were exposed. It is easy and simple

- Verified patient on 2/22

Made an appointment for a Covid test, checked in 15 minutes early, and was finally seen 35 minutes after my appointment time. Was at this for a total of 1 hour and 10 minutes. Not the best experience but staff members were nice. Also, I did not see one person clean the lobby after people sat in a seat. I feel that chairs should be cleaned after use given how bad Covid is spreading.

- Verified patient on 12/7

COVID testing is stressful and not fun but your staff was so kind, helpful and reassuring.

- Verified patient on 11/26

Went in for a COVID test. It was fast and the explanation of the results were very understandable.

Dr did not wash his hands or have on gloves before touching my neck. No one took my temperature. I had a sore throat and got a Covid test. Was seen 40 min after appt time

- Verified patient on 1/1

Came in for a covid test appt. at 8:30am. Got here a little early like Recc. Which was good. We got in the room pretty quickly. Vitals were taken…not sure why. And then we waited and waited. After the actual covid test we waited a little more and left at 9:45am. 1hr for a swab in the nose. Good staff and everything was clean! But for next time, getting the drive through covid test at cvs.

The triage lady was amazing. Her personality was exceptional and she was very nice and welcoming! The provider seemed scared and sliding if actually assessing me for any other illness even though my covid test was negative.

Indian Trail COVID Testing & Rapid Testing

Types of COVID Tests

There are two types of coronavirus tests (COVID-19 tests) available, those that can test for a current infection (viral test) and those that can test for a past infection (antibody test).

Viral COVID testing can be done in a few different ways, the most common being nose swabs, but saliva tests are becoming more popular. Some tests are processed out on-site and can provide results in as little as 30 minutes. These are called rapid COVID tests. The majority of tests, on the other hand, are collected at the clinic on-site and then submitted to off-site labs for processing. Results can take up to 2-3 days to arrive. 

Antibody testing looks for a past infection and may not reveal if you have an active COVID-19 infection because antibodies can take up to three weeks to form in your body. The presence of COVID antibodies may help to prevent you from becoming infected with the same virus again; but, because the clinical understanding of COVID-19 is still developing, it's unclear how long that protection will continue.

Who should get tested for current infection

The CDC currently defines four instances where COVID testing is recommended:

  1. If you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 including fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, or diarrhea.
  2. If you have been in close contact with someone with confirmed COVID-19. Close contact is defined as within 6 feet for a total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period. If you have been vaccinated, or tested positive in the past 3 months and not experiencing symptoms, you do not need to be tested.
  3. If you are unvaccinated and participated in high-risk activities where distancing is not an option. This could include travel, large social or mass gatherings, crowded indoor settings, etc.
  4. If you have been referred to get a COVID test by your healthcare provider or local health department. 

How is testing done for COVID-19?

Most COVID tests are collected by a nasal swab. A member of the medical team puts a swab inside your nose for a few seconds on each side to collect the sample. After that, the samples are packaged according to CDC guidelines and tested on-site or transported to a facility for testing. The lab will test samples for the presence of the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), which causes COVID infection and either your care provider or the lab will notify you with the results as soon as they are available.

PCR vs Antigen Testing

Viral COVID tests are available as molecular and antigen tests. The molecular test, also known as a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, usually delivers results within a few days since most of these tests are sent to offsite labs for analysis. The average turnaround time for PCR test results is 48 hours, but in some instances may be significantly longer due to backlogs related to insufficient lab volume and capacity. Antigen tests are also known as rapid tests and have an average turnaround time of between 15 to 30 minutes.

Both PCR and rapid COVID tests can be used to test people exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19, those who were close contacts to COVID-19, and those without COVID-19 symptoms who live or work in a high-risk setting (such as a nursing facility); or those individuals who are identified as part of outbreak detection and response. The rapid COVID test is also recommended for the screening of residents or healthcare workers at skilled nursing facilities along with a PCR confirmation, and for repeat screening for the early detection and prevention of outbreaks in congregate settings (such as schools, workplaces, and prisons).

COVID testing is available for free under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, which includes testing for those without health insurance. To reduce the risk of facing extra costs related to COVID testing, ask your primary care doctor to recommend a free COVID test site, and confirm there are no charges or fees for the test that are not covered by your insurance plan. Additionally, avoid getting a COVID test at a hospital or free-standing emergency room, as these facilities may charge fees for COVID testing and related services.
