  • Urinalysis to evaluate kidney function, detect urinary tract infections, or screen for other health conditions.
  • Rapid strep tests to diagnose strep throat.
  • Influenza test to diagnose flu infections.
  • Electrocardiograms (EKG or ECG) to evaluate heart function and detect irregularities.
  • Rapid COVID-19 tests to diagnose COVID-19 infections.

These urgent care tests allow our providers to make informed decisions about treatment plans and referrals, ensuring patients receive timely and appropriate care for their medical needs.

Urgent Care EKG Testing

An electrocardiogram (EKG) test is a noninvasive diagnostic tool crucial for gauging the heart’s health and functionality. It can detect common heart issues, such as arrhythmias, blocked or narrowed arteries, structural problems, etc.

At CareWell, we never compromise quality for speed. Our experienced providers and clinical staff use leading-edge diagnostic tools and advanced EKG equipment, ensuring you get accurate results quickly.

Urgent care testing for EKGs is available at all 12 Carewell locations.


Urgent Care COVID Testing

If you’ve been exposed to COVID, getting tested within 3-5 days is essential, even if you aren’t experiencing any symptoms. We offer the following COVID tests:

  • PCR or Antibody (results in 2-3 days)
  • Rapid Antigen (results in as few as 15 minutes)

Comprehensive COVID testing is available for your entire family at all CareWell locations throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island. If you test positive for COVID, we can also prescribe and administer antiviral treatments to help ease symptoms, helping you feel better faster.


Urgent Care STD Testing

When it comes to sensitive topics like STDs, we understand that speed, convenience, and affordability are crucial. That’s why we offer rapid, accessible, respectful, and confidential urgent care testing for STDs at all 12 CareWell locations throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We offer walk-in urgent care STD testing for:

  • Chlamydia
  • Gonorrhea
  • Herpes
  • HIV
  • Syphilis
  • Hepatitis B and C
  • Trichomoniasis (trich)

Your urgent care test results will be shared within 24-48 hours of your visit. We then recommend appropriate treatments, medications, and follow-up care with your primary care doctor.

For all other STD testing or urgent care test results, please call your nearest CareWell location and ask to speak with one of our medical professionals. We can help you get the answers—and care—you need.


On-Site Lab Services

When you have a health concern that is causing you worry or anxiety or when you are not feeling well, we understand how important it is to get answers quickly.

Instead of sending your samples for off-site testing and waiting for the results to be returned, our on-site laboratory services ensure you get the urgent care test results you need as quickly as possible.

Several on-site laboratory services are available at our CareWell walk-in clinics, offering three significant benefits to you:

  1. Faster diagnosis
  2. Faster treatment
