Covid Testing

With the COVID-19 pandemic in Los Angeles, we know that safety is the highest priority and we are here to keep you and our staff safe, and this is why we are providing accurate CVID testing.  We are now proud to offer COVID testing for those who want it, and this can test for an infection and the antibody test can be used to see if you had the virus in the past.

If you have any symptoms of COVID, then the nasal swab is a great option for you. Our office in Los Angeles offers nasal swabs based on appointments. You will receive a nasal swab that will spin around to get a proper sample. From there, the sample is sent to the lab and you will have your results 1-2 days after your swab, and then you will receive a phone call about it.

You should not be taking this test if you have current symptoms or recent symptoms of COVID-19. Antibody testing is intending for those who want to see if they had the virus within recent times, not currently, and was unaware of having the virus or thought it was something else. Taking this blood test at our office will allow you to have your results in just a couple of hours.  You will be required to answer questions before you schedule your appointment to get testing in Los Angeles.

We are always here to put safety first for our patients and staff. Here are some of the additional safety steps that we have been taking:

• Hand sanitizer available to all
• Extra sterilization and protection methods from our nurses
• Cleaning surfaces throughout the day to avoid contamination
• Fewer appointments to prevent crowded areas
• Masks and gloves required for all patients and staff
• Staff will not be in office if they are not feeling well

Please note:  Antibody COVID-19 testing is approved by the FDA under the Emergency Use Authorization act, but unfortunately, is currently not covered by insurance or Medicare.  Everyone in the office will be required to wear masks and to take effective social distancing measures to keep everyone safe.
