How long does a strep test take in Walcott?

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 Walcott?

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.

Short wait time. Kind staff. Would have preferred to have a "real" doctor though. The person who took care of me wouldn't believe that I had Bronchitis. She said I had a head cold even though i was coughing up green phlemn from my Lungs. She Didn't believe me! I get bronchitis at least once or twice a year for the past 30+ years. You'd think I know my own body. This was the first time a Doctor did not make my diagnosis. They need to go back to only DOCTORS so a proper diagnosis can be made.
