Need COVID-19 Testing?

Published

As you know, COVID-19 testing is in high demand. To relieve the pressure at the Valley Health Urgent Care centers and medical practices, and keep folks away from their Emergency Departments unless they are really sick, Valley Health is standing up another testing option for those with a provider’s order on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Stay tuned for updates next week re: additional days.

Here’s what they just posted to our website (www.valleyhealthlink.com/coronavirus)
