COVID-19 TEST COST
There are testing clinics and pharmacies with prices lower than ours. What do we provide to warrant the additional cost?
Being available
We realized early on that it was particularly important to travellers that they could stay in touch with us while awaiting their results. You can reach us 7 days a week by email and by phone.
Experience
Travellers are understandably very concerned that their lab report should arrive in time. The window for testing permitted by many countries is narrow. Your rapid antigen test report is typically in your hands within two hours.
We were, to our knowledge, the first clinic to provide private COVID-19 testing to travellers in Ottawa beginning in December 2020. We gained considerable experience overcoming the difficulties of this enterprise in the first months, particularly in ensuring that reports reached travellers on time and error-free.
Avoiding pitfalls
A spelling error on the lab report can spell disaster at the airport. We have staff dedicated to checking for such errors at all points in the process from booking to testing to reporting.
Expertise
We are knowledgeable about the special requirements of certain countries. We come to COVID-19 testing with 31 years as perhaps Ottawa's best-known travel medicine clinic.
Our clinic is not part of a chain and is physician-led. We are open 7 days per week and we currently do nothing but COVID testing.
