Testing for COVID-19

We are offering a drive-through testing service for all patients that require* a COVID-19 swab.
If you feel you require a swab, please phone our reception team and they will book a telehealth appointment for you with a doctor in the first instance and the swab will be arranged for the same day where possible.
Results currently have a turn around time of approximately 24-36 hours. Please note that this may vary depending on the volume of testing that is performed throughout the country.
* eligibility for the swab will be determined by the treating doctor at the time of your telehealth consultation.
