This review is strictly only about their self covid testing service.
Fast covid testing at this pharmacy and results within 48 hours. I've visited so many times during covid and have never had a bad experience. I found this place just walking by and saved it in case I needed future covid testing. And when I did I was always able to walk by and have it done quickly and easily. The self-covid testing here was/is always reliable and I was able to feel comfortable that this pharmacy was always able to provide me with a self-covid test even when the covid cases were bad, they still had enough.
8th avenue pharmacy was/is partnering with LabQ for fast covid testing. Just use your phone to scan the QR code they have outside. This will prompt you to input your personal information as well as health insurance information. After, you will receive a notification with your information and you can walk into the store, head to the back and let them know you are there for a covid test. Give them your name and they will look it up in the system. If the QR code and information you filled out is good to go, they will print out a label and stick it onto a self covid test kit. Then they will instruct you to nose swab yourself outside and drop off the swab and covid test kit/baggie into a box.
There is no line most of the time since you are doing a self test, so you just grab the bag, do the test and drop it into the box, which takes less than 5 minutes total.
Thank you for being a reliable covid-testing site and staying open even when covid was spiking! read more
