How long does a strep test take in McLean?

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 McLean?

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.

The whole experience from front door in, to front door out, was excellent. The doctor was so thorough and his bedside manners so pleasant that I am still impressed. Nurses and receptionist exceptional also. Sick but so very impressed. (This from a retired RN) 🤗. Great job.

From start to finish the care I received at Garrisonville Urgent Care was phenomenal. The nurses and receptionist were very friendly and got me in and out. Dr. Khan was extremely knowledgeable and listened to my symptoms thoughtfully and with care. His bedside manner is one of the most compassionate I've ever seen. After being sick for over a week (having already been to one doctor), he was able to successfully diagnose me and within a few hours I'm already feeling better! I have been with my primary care physician for many years and plan to switch to him because of the excellent care today! Thank you!
