Samaritan surgical patients will be called directly or have an appointment made for them.
Have No Symptoms?
We offer COVID-19 PCR tests through our drive-up testing site with results within 1 to 2 days, please select the $100 option ‘COVID-19 Testing’ appointment type and you will be directed to payment processing.
