Hurray, there is no more waiting in line for Covid Testing: simply stop into the center, sign up for a time slot that day, return at your designated time, get tested, go home.

And finally, thank you! During this past year we just wanted to thank our patients. It has been a difficult and stressful time for all of us and we are just so thankful for our community of patients. What a wonderful community we have and we thank you!

About Our COVID-19 Antibody Test

This serology blood test identifies the presence of antibodies that indicate that a person had an immune response to COVID-19 (also known as coronavirus or SARS-CoV-2). A positive result to this antibody (IgG) test indicates that you may have had previous exposure to COVID-19 and your body has developed antibodies.

Although It may take up to 14 days after the onset of symptoms for antibodies to be developed within the body, 91% of people develop such antibodies within the first 8-13 days. Some people infected with COVID-19 will never exhibit symptoms but will have a detectable antibody response. While there is belief that the presence of antibodies may provide immunity to future infections, there is not yet enough data to state this conclusively.

This is an antibody test used to detect the presence of antibodies indicating a immune system response to a past COVID-19 infection, not to diagnose active infections. In the meantime, if you are looking to protect yourself from seasonal flu and other maladies, we also provide vaccinations and immunizations.
