COVID-19 Testing: Rapid & PCR

At Sugarloaf Urgent Care, we offer both rapid and PCR types of Covid-19 testing. Therefore, if you are having symptoms or need clearance to go back to work after having Covid-19, we have you covered. The rapid test, which is also called the antigen test, looks for proteins that exist on the outside of the virus. You can get your results in around 15 minutes, which makes it a great test for a quick result. The PCR takes a sample of the RNA or ribonucleic acid. This will reveal even small traces of the virus. The results of the PCR are not instant and can take days to come back. They are the most accurate type of test for the virus.
