How long does a strep test take in Rock Island?

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 Rock Island?

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 had meant to leave a review the last time I had visited Unity Point Walk In. My stomach had been hurting really bad right around the same time Covid was really making its rounds. Instead of going to my family physician I made an appointment at the walk in. I was seen by Kelly, she diagnosed that I probably had appendicitis and told me to go the emergency room. Normally I would of brushed it off lucky enough I listened to her because it had ruptured. Thanks again Kelly and all the staff you are appreciated!
