I was able to choose a Labcorp location and schedule an appointment. Check in was easy, and I only needed to provide my name and DOB. They were able to locate my order in their system. They were already aware that my labs were paid for prior to the appointment. I had my labs done on a Wednesday, and I received my results by Saturday. Great experience.

I came in one day without an appoint and waited two hours as a walk-in before I had to leave without being tested. I made an appointment through Quest Lab Testing for the next day, showed up on time, got tested easily and was on my way in 15-20 minutes. Staff is friendly and helpful.

I visited the Care Now located at 5570 Camino Al Norte North Las Vegas, NV 89031 on June 25th, 2023. I have C-PTSD which causes me to have a phobia of blood pressure machines and having my blood pressure taken. I have medical trauma that is related to this. I have been living with this diagnosis and phobia for 10 years. I can't begin to describe how difficult these years have been for me. I have been on NUMEROUS sedatives, tranquilizers, SNRI's and blood pressure medications. In addition to medicine, I have a psychiatrist and therapist to help me work through my CPTSD and phobia. I would have to drug myself into a catatonic state just to visit a doctor. Despite being drug induced, my panic would be through the roof. I live(d) in constant medical fear. It has deeply effected the way I live and who I am as a person. I'm getting emotional just thinking about how many dark nights I have had due to this. I share this because I have avoided getting medical care or pleading with the medical team to avoid taking my BP. You can imagine the insensitive comments I have heard from the medical community. Which only made me feel broken and undeserving of medical care. A couple of days ago, my daughter went with me to this urgent care for treatment. My first interaction was with the lady at the front, Nicole. She is the most calming and kind hearted person I have ever encountered in a medical facility. She treated each person who entered the doors as if they were the only person who mattered. Impeccable customer service. You literally could not have hired a better person for this position. She is what every facility should strive to hire. I hope she knows that she was the first reason I was able to stay calm and not let my anxiety rule me. Her disposition and nature was exactly what I needed in that moment. After that, I was greeted by LaTonya Houston. She walked me back and talked me through the initial questions. When it came time to have my BP taken, I had asked to skip this part due to my C-PTSD and phobia. I fully expected her to dismiss my fears or make some snarky comment about white coat syndrome (even though it's deeper than that). Instead, she treated me like I was a person with feelings. She saw me AND she heard me. I have goosebumps as I write this. She told me that everyone has their own fears and that mine was valid. I have waited 10 years to hear someone from the medical community to say this to me. Together we decided to check my BP with a manual cuff as the automatic one is too much for me. She never complained and she didn't rush me. She treated me as if I was a friend. She calmed my soul. I felt safe with her. She is the ONLY medical person in the last 10 years who has checked my BP without making it traumatic. She did the exact opposite. In fact, this was the first time that I had my BP checked without being over medicated and experiencing panic. And the best part, my BP was a normal reading instead of the typical "any higher and you'll have a stroke" level. LaTonya is someone who I have been praying to encounter in the medical profession. I was in a place of darkness and lacked any confidence in the medical field....then I met LaTonya. This may seem insignificant, however, she was an answer to my prayers. I wish it wouldn't have taken 10 years for me to find her, but I am beyond thankful that our paths crossed. I wish that I could have her anytime I need to go to the doctors. I have been on cloud 9 since meeting her. She has helped lighten my mental load. I will be forever thankful for her and will never forget her. Literally an angel in human form. If she reads this, LaTonya, you have helped heal a part of me that seemed broken. Please know you have made a difference. Laura Brown

Book a COVID antibody test online

COVID-19 Antibody Test
This test detects SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) antibodies from a previous infection and from the COVID-19 vaccinations.

Indian Springs COVID Antibody Testing

When is antibody testing done, and why is it important?

An antibody test, also known as a serology test, can detect antibodies in your blood. Your body develops antibodies in response to infections like COVID-19 or after receiving vaccinations.

ACCORDING TO THE FDA, the COVID-19 antibody test is formally known as the SARS-CoV-2 antibody test. SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. This antibody test can tell whether you have SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in your blood. If you do, you have either been infected with COVID-19 or have recovered from it, adds the FDA.

According to the CDC, the COVID antibody test can help you determine how well your immune system defends itself against the virus. It adds that this test can also help you understand population-level protection.

The main reason antibody testing is done, according to the CDC, is to determine whether you have COVID-19 antibodies in your blood and have had a past infection. However, the CDC says this test should not be used in place of viral COVID testing to determine if you have a current infection or if you have immunity to SARS-CoV-2 after getting the COVID vaccine.

What tests are used to diagnose COVID-19?

COVID-19 can be diagnosed using a viral test. In addition, the CDC reports that a viral test can determine whether you are currently infected with SARS-CoV-2.

During the viral test, a healthcare worker will take a sample from either your nose or mouth. Your sample is then analyzed using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test or antigen test.

PCR

A PCR test works by finding the DNA or RNA of a pathogen or abnormal cells in a sample, reports the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Most viruses, including COVID-19, contain DNA or RNA, adds the NIH.

The CDC notes that a PCR test can detect COVID in its earliest stages. Results from these lab tests usually come back within several days, says the CDC.

Antigen

An antigen test works by finding SARS-CoV-2 molecules on the virus surface, reports the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. These rapid tests return results within a few minutes, and can be performed by a healthcare worker or yourself at home, reports the CDC. Solv features a directory that can help you find nearby COVID testing.

What is the difference between these tests and antibody tests?

PCR and antigen tests can tell you whether you are currently infected with COVID-19, notes the CDC. However, the antibody test can tell you only if you have had a previous infection. An antibody test cannot tell you if you currently have COVID-19, says the CDC.

What will the COVID-19 antibody test results tell me?

Positive results from a COVID antibody test indicate that you had a previous SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19, reports the FDA.

Negative results from a COVID antibody test indicate that antibodies to COVID were not detected in your blood. The FDA adds that a negative result could mean it’s possible you had a previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, but your body did not make antibodies yet, or that the level of antibodies made by your body is too low to be measured by the test.

Other antibody tests

Antibody tests can also be used to look for antibodies of other diseases, reports the NIH. These diseases include measles, mumps, hepatitis, mononucleosis, and varicella-zoster virus.

Your doctor may suggest getting antibody tests for these diseases to determine whether you are up to date on vaccinations and need boosters or to diagnose an autoimmune disease like lupus. Antibody tests are also sometimes performed as a requirement for your school or job, adds the NIH.

COVID-19 Antibody Test FAQs

  • How can I get the COVID-19 antibody test?

    The COVID-19 antibody test is available at urgent care centers, walk-in clinics, pharmacies, lab test providers, and hospitals, says the CDC. Contact your healthcare provider directly to find out if it offers the COVID antibody test, or use Solv to find a testing provider in your area. Solv also allows you to make a same- or next-day appointment.

  • How do COVID-19 antibody tests differ from diagnostic tests?

    COVID-19 antibody tests can tell you if you have had a previous COVID-19 infection, says the FDA. In comparison, a diagnostic COVID test can tell you if you are currently infected by COVID-19. If your goal is to find out whether you currently have COVID-19, ask your healthcare provider about your options for diagnostic tests, or use Solv to find a nearby COVID-19 testing provider.

  • What should I expect when I take the antibody test?

    According to New York City Health, the COVID-19 antibody test requires giving a blood sample. During the test, your healthcare provider will take a sample of your blood with a quick finger prick or by drawing blood from a vein in your arm. The NIH adds that this test usually only takes about five minutes. Your healthcare provider will contact you to discuss your results after they return.

  • Are there any limitations to COVID-19 antibody tests?

    According to the FDA, the COVID antibody test could produce a false negative, which occurs when the test fails to detect antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 even though you have them. It adds that your test result may also come back negative if you received the COVID-19 vaccine, but your body produced different antibody types in response to the vaccine. Your doctor can discuss other limitations of COVID antibody tests with you in more detail during your appointment.

  • Can I use a semi-quantitative COVID-19 antibody test to determine my level of immunity?

    No, a semi-quantitative COVID-19 antibody test cannot determine your level of immunity to COVID-19, even if you have been vaccinated for this disease, reports the FDA. It adds that even though a positive antibody test can indicate that an immune response has occurred, more research is needed.

  • Can I use a semi-quantitative COVID-19 antibody test to track my antibody levels over time?

    No, the semi-quantitative COVID-19 antibody test cannot track your antibody levels over time, says the FDA. This test cannot evaluate your level of immunity or protection from COVID-19, even if you have received a vaccination against COVID-19. The FDA adds that if antibody test results are interpreted incorrectly, people may take fewer precautions against this disease.

  • How much does a COVID antibody test cost in Indian Springs?

    The cost of the COVID antibody test depends on factors such as rates set by the provider and whether your health insurance covers some or all testing costs. According to the University of Rochester, many health insurers are not covering the cost of the COVID antibody test unless it is considered medically appropriate for diagnosis and treatment purposes. Check with your healthcare provider to confirm the cost of the COVID antibody test.

  • Should I get tested?

    According to the CDC, the COVID antibody test may be ideal for you if you want to know if you have previously been exposed to COVID-19, or if you want to know if you have antibodies if you already had this disease. The COVID antibody test cannot tell you if you currently have COVID-19.

  • Where can I get a COVID antibody test in Indian Springs?

    The COVID antibody test is available from many pharmacies, labs, and healthcare providers. To find a testing provider, use Solv’s directory to find the highest-rated COVID antibody testing providers in your area.
