How long does a strep test take in Newton Highlands?

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 Newton Highlands?

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'm not one to usually write a review unlike most people. Every business every person has a bad day, but why must everyone judge a business/person on one bad minute. With that said I have to say ReadyMED, Auburn is by far the BEST! I have been there 3 times in Auburn, unfortunately twice in a 24 hours period both times they were amazing. The morning shift 2/1 and the evening shift 2/2 you know who you are. Keep up the awesome work, its a tough job and you never get the credit you are due. Thank you for everything!!
