This on-site test clinic is my life-saver. No place around my area conduct nasopharyngeal swab for traveling anymore, but my destination country (Japan) requires to get into Japan. No wait time, just arrived at the clinic and they got the sample while I was staying in my car. The test result came back within 2 hour, and even they filled out the Japanese government required form (test results including passport number etc. signed by dr.).

I had a Walgreens appointment for travel and although they state to check lab results time on their website they don’t mention that their labs are closed on weekends and therefore my Friday appointment to test for my Sunday flight would not result in time. I was in a panic until I found this service. It was easy to book and I called a few times to confirm as I was driving from two hours away. The staff were extremely friendly and WELL worth the $200 spent to get the results within an hour. This was a life saver!!! Thank you

Highly recommend- peace of mind for travellers. With a requirement of a negative COVID test result to return to Canada taken within 72 hours and being tested at another company who failed to return my family’s results in time, we found On-Site medical online with a rapid PCR Test. The staff was friendly and results were delivered on time. It was a little tricky to find as it is a trailer set up in the mall parking lot, but other than that it was so easy!

- Verified patient on 8/9

The guy who checked us in and the other guy who took the sample were both very pleasant. The wait is longer than we hoped, and it cost 750 for four of us to get non-symptomatic test results on the spot (YIKES!!!), but we can now go to Canada for our vacation on Aug 9!

- Verified patient on 8/7

Went to drive thru for travel Covid test. Did the rapid pcr test. Staff was very friendly and test was not painful. Just 10 swirls in each nostril. Had results in 40 minutes. Expensive, but it gave me peace of mind and not worrying if I would get my test results within the 72 hour mandate for Aruba travel. Very relieved!

- Verified patient on 10/3

We were very nervous about the super-specific requirements on the paperwork for entering Japan, but they seem to know exactly what is required and prepared the paperwork perfectly! Now we're very relieved. The staff was all friendly both in person or on the phone, and the results came back fast (about one hour). Highly recommended for anyone who needs COVID tests for traveling!

- Verified patient on 8/9

Stunning! CVS and all you wanna be test sites, take notice! The main reason I went there was because I am still waiting on results from Saturday, here it Monday, travel plans all messed up. Here, I booked the appointment, was tested, and results in hand, 45 minutes later. Off to Canada I go! Thanks for making that happen!

I needed a COVID PCR test for international travel. I made an appointment through the Solv website. I arrived 15 minutes ahead of my appointment. A staffperson greeted me and got me started on paperwork and checked with me after a few minutes to see if I had any questions. Then a different staffperson came and explained the test procedure to me and took my swab, and gave me some information about the type of test I had and how & when I could check for my results. The whole thing took about 15 minutes, and I never had to get out of my car.

Heading on a cruise so I needed a test, followed their recommended home testing kit thats requires no more than 2 days from embarkation to be conducted. That home test was broken and resulted in inconclusive results since items in it were expired. These folks in Manchester were legit life savers since I needed a test in a pinch. I got my results in under 2 hours and will be able to get on my flight this afternoon. This $200 test has saved me atleast $4k worth of a vacation since I would of not been able to board without a negative result. Don't trust the home tests, still get a backup option. These ladies were hospitable, efficient and outstanding. Thank you for being able to get me on my cruise!

I was so impressed with my experience. I got an appointment for the rapid Covid 19 test quickly, and was helped by a nurse, Mackenzie, who is absolutely fantastic! She was friendly, and even helped me finish checking in on my phone. She collected the sample, and the results came back so quickly. The test was very expensive, but I needed quick results, so I am grateful for this drive-through service. It could not have been easier.

I called ClearChoiceMD on December 30th and spoke to Maria at the Portsmouth office I had two questions: one was for a rapid antigen Covid test for a trip and the other was a physical for my Master Captain Coast Guard license renewal. Maria was so kind and patient and worked hard to find the doctor that does the physicals at another branch in Maine and to make sure I had the needed covid test for my trip on January 4th to the Bahamas What a great asset she is to everyone that calls needing help and ClearChoiceMD

- Verified patient on 12/30

Making an appointment was quick and easy, all of our questions were answered and the staff was very friendly. The lanes were clearly marked and the staff kept things moving. The entire process was exactly as described to us and the results were timely. Our results were both delivered to our email and printed for us to present for travel. I would gladly use this testing facility again.

Wow I can't say enough. After a horrible mishap with testing for our honeymoon this lovely staff and group of people swooped in and saved the day. They could not have been nicer. They could not have been more accommodating. They just simply couldn't have been better. Hands down would recommend them to anyone.

- Verified patient on 10/8

I love the clarity and thorough answers to questions about testing. Andrew Keady did an excellent job. I tried to get the same questions answered at Convienent MD. They would not answer them without first being seen. So I chose not to use them and instead went to Onsite. It was important for me to be allowed to choose the test that best fit our circumstance. The patients aren’t as dumb as some health care “professionals” like to believe. The true professionals are the one that supplies honest answers to detailed questions. When I worked for the airlines as a pilot I gave honest answers about the circumstances then let people make the best choices for themselves. Keep up that way, and your business will go far. I am letting the school nurse in Nashua know exactly how good Onsite is as compared to Convenient MD and exactly why.

- Verified patient on 5/17

This place was so helpful and the customer service was great! We got there 30 mins early and they swabbed me shortly after we got there and they checked me in. I would highly recommend this testing location. It was slightly difficult to find, so go to the longhorn steak house and then the trailer is in the parking lot near it.

- Verified patient on 10/7

This was a tremendous experience. Fast and easy from the first click in the internet. We needed a PCR test FAST because #bestmomever me missed the email regarding it’s requirement. If we did not get test results this morning, our 7 y.o. would have missed his very first day (ever) at sleep away camp. The mom horror was real. Did a quick internet search and found On-Site Medical Services and hours later I already have the needed test results. Nicest staff ever, professional, actual adults, patient, and credible. SO. GLAD. I. FOUND. YOU. Thank you!

- Verified patient on 7/4

It was easy, everyone very helpful, friendly, and professional. I appreciated the care they took to explain everything. I’m grateful to have access to qualified, professional people who are so courteous, and who get the test done efficiently and quickly. I also appreciate the care they take to ensure privacy and ensure it’s the correct test for your specific travel plans.

- Verified patient on 8/12

This was a great experience from beginning to end. It was easy to book an appointment on the same day. The process was seamless, staff was very compassionate and I received my results before I drove back to my office (under an hour). I would recommend this service to anyone who needs a quick solution for COVID testing. The cost was fair and exactly what I expected. There was no waiting time.

- Verified patient on 9/22

After multiple failed attempts to get a timely covid test from other providers I was so glad to find a facility that could take me for a *same-day* appointment especially after CVS cancelled my morning appointment due to an inability to resolve insurance conflicts in-store. The staff were SO friendly, on the phone and in person, and to be able to have my results later the same day is a real relief.

- Verified patient on 9/12

Super timely, got in and out. Staff was kind, and not in that overly friendly/fake way. They looked up where I was traveling to in order to ensure I was getting the proper test, explained what they were doing as they were doing it, and were very very efficient. Had my results after about an hour, and couldn’t be happier with the experience.

Meredith 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.
