My nurse from the start, and Dr. Emily Wheeler were both outstanding! Emily was thorough, efficient, pleasant, like an old friend I just met. Felt like I was being observed. assessed, and listened to by a personable seasoned pro, and the treatment she prescribed has helped my issues very much. Also great to get negative tests back within 15 minutes, on the spot for Strep and Covid. So glad this urgent care is in my neighborhood! Was in and out in less than hour! Remarkable and impressive. Highly recommend.

I was impressed with how quickly they were able to get me back. I was really glad that there was actually an examination before the Covid rapid test that I had booked. I was feeling pretty bad, and I needed a doctor to evaluate me just to make sure there was nothing else going on. As it turned out, I only had a pretty nasty cold. But the doctor was very friendly, and the facility very nice and professional.

The staff was very friendly, with being texted the wait wasn't bad..the actual test was easy, not at all what I had imagined..getting the results so quick was great..Thanks!

The nurse we had was fantastic. We had to get tested (luckily, came back negative) and she made us feel comfortable. Even though it was a scary moment, she made it feel less intimidating. I’ve never had a doctor or nurse make me laugh during an appointment but she made it happen. Hopefully, I won’t have to go back any time soon but if I had to, I would go back here.

Arrived at 730am, registered at 8, showed i was 2nd in line but 4 others were seen before me. Then told I would get test results in 20 minutes. 4 vehicles left. Finally 1 hour after taking test, was told I was positive. Would prefer to be seen and results given in order.

Had a covid test done and strep test!!! She helped me and was gentle

- Verified patient on 3/17

I came in today for a covid antibody test per my employers request. The nurse who did my test was very nice and professional. However, when I saw Dr. Odell, I believe that’s his name, he was very rude and condescending towards me. I had explained to the nurse that I was still fearful of the covid vaccine but that I was still doing some research, which she encouraged me to do. As should anyone who plans on getting it. Dr. Odell seemed like he was almost pissed off at the fact that I was even there. He said a covid antibody test wasn’t going to tell us anything. I tried to explain to him that I hadn’t been exposed, but he cut me off saying it didn’t matter. I NEVER got the chance to express my concerns about the vaccine or to ask any questions. After his “visit” with me I over heard him in the hallway fussing with the nurse saying he didn’t understand why I was getting an antibody test. As I said before, it was per my employers request. No matter your stance on the vaccine, the way I was treated today was completely uncalled for. I AM NOT ANTIVAX!! I believe you should research anything you put into your body. That is my plan. At the end of the day I was doing what my employer had asked me to do. Dr. Odell’s bedside manner SUCKS and I’m tired of the covid vaccine bullies.

Went there on Saturday morning for rapid covid test. Fast friendly staff. Very thankful they were open. Highly recommend.

All of the staff were friendly and helpful. They made me feel at ease. I had a rapid COVID test. It went great! Thank you!

- Verified patient on 8/4

I will not go another urgent care after my experience here. My wife and I went for a Covid test after testing negative at a drive thru a week before. When they called us the nurse noticed my wife struggling and didn’t like her color and told them to put her in a room. The doctor came in and ordered an ekg and told me he had called EMS to come and transport her to the hospital. Our results came back positive before the ambulance arrived. These are the most alert an conscientious people I’ve ever encountered at an urgent care.

Friendly and efficient staff. Wait time not too bad for walk in Covid testing. Overall great visit.

I walked in which I expected. I was checked in and waited on my car until called. I went in & went into a room very quickly. The nurse talked with me & gave me a Covid test. I waited about 15 minutes for the results which a PA gave me. The test was negative and he checked me and told me what to do for my symptoms & what to do if anything changed. Great experience!

- Verified patient on 12/14

Kept me well informed of progression of my testing.

- Verified patient on 8/19

I was treated with good care, gentleness, and understanding. Octavius was very understanding and made me feel at ease about the test I was having. I hope if I ever have to come back, he’s the nurse I see or I hope the other nurses are just understanding as he is. Thank you to all the Doctors, Nurses for all that you do.

- Verified patient on 10/3

Staff members were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The wait time was long because they're the only facility around offering same day testing. I would definitely recommend them.

Gastonia Lab Tests

Lab tests take samples of your blood, urine, saliva, and other bodily secretions, which are then analyzed in a lab to help doctors diagnose and treat certain illnesses. Lab tests can be used to diagnose an illness, detect changes in an existing condition, and monitor how your body responds to a therapy, among other things. They can also be used to monitor the progression of a disease or a set of diseases.

If your doctor is unable to make a definitive diagnosis of your disease, or if you are having a variety of symptoms that could indicate a variety of disorders, he or she may request a lab test. To see how you're responding to a drug or to check if you're at risk for certain diseases, lab tests may be performed.If your doctor is unable to make a definitive diagnosis of your disease, or if you are having a variety of symptoms that could indicate a variety of disorders, he or she may request a lab test. To see how you're responding to a drug or to check if you're at risk for certain diseases, lab tests may be performed.

Some lab tests require no preparation at all, while others may require you to fast for eight to twelve hours before the test in order to avoid erroneous results from certain meals and beverages. Your healthcare provider may advise you to cease smoking, exercising, and taking certain medications and nutritional supplements for many hours or days before your blood test.

Before your lab test, ask your doctor for precise instructions to follow to minimize erroneous results and multiple trips to the lab for additional testing.

The personnel at the lab testing facility will demonstrate how to do each type of test.
