Both Rapid and PCR Testing Offered at Thompson’s Urgent Cares

Whether you’re going to an event that requires proof of a negative result, about to travel or simply seeking peace of mind, Thompson Health’s urgent care locations in Canandaigua and Newark are providing COVID-19 testing.

Rapid tests are available to those without symptoms or known exposures, and results are available in 15 minutes.

PCR tests are available for patients who do have symptoms or have been exposed to someone who is COVID-positive. These results are available within 24 to 48 hours.

While patients taking rapid tests are welcome to wait 15 minutes to receive their results in person, the most convenient way to receive rapid test results are to sign up for MyChart, a free service that offers patients personalized and secure online access to portions of their UR Medicine medical record.
