Why Choose AFC for COVID-19 Testing
COVID testing is an important service whether you’re vaccinated or not. Many people remain vulnerable to COVID-19, and if you’re feeling sick, you could be putting those around you at risk. AFC offers COVID testing right on-site, giving you quick results to let you know whether or not you have COVID-19. Furthermore, we also test for Flu A/B and strep, illnesses that produce similar symptoms, so even if you don't have COVID, we can get you the proper treatment.
The Process of Getting a COVID Test
Your AFC clinic will perform two different COVID tests: A Rapid COVID-19 Nucleic Acid Amplification Test and RT-PCR COVID-19 Test. You'll receive your rapid results on the spot and will get the results of the more comprehensive RT-PCR COVID-19 Test online within a few days.
We know that if you’re feeling sick, the last thing you need is to wait for an appointment, so feel free to walk right into your local AFC to request a test.
If it turns out that you do have COVID-19, our providers will set you up with a treatment plan that could include medication, plenty of fluids, rest, and of course, staying home.

AFC Urgent Care FAQs
-
Why does AFC provide two different COVID tests?
We offer a rapid test because they provide highly reliable results on the spot; however, they do produce more false negatives than the RT-PCR COVID-19 Test. Doing both tests is our way of ensuring that you get the most accurate results possible without having to put your life on hold.
-
How long does it take to get a COVID test?
We're able to get many patients in and out in a matter of minutes, but the length of time you'll spend in our clinic will depend on wait times that day.
-
How much does it cost to get a COVID test?
That will ultimately depend on your insurance coverage. Presently, many people with insurance are able to get tested at no charge. If you’re uninsured, AFC’s cash pay prices are highly competitive – contact us for the details.
