A provider who will refer you for testing at one of our local GoHealth Urgent Care centers if testing criteria is met.

  3. If you cannot schedule a Virtual Visit, please save your spot online. This will save you time and help us safely prepare for you and other patients.

  4. If you cannot check-in online, please check-in at the front, then return to your car or wait outside. If you’ve opted for SMS from us, our queuing system will text you when a provider is ready to see you inside! Otherwise, our staff will call you when it’s your turn to be seen inside.

Frequently Asked Questions on COVID-19 Testing

Q: Can I get tested for COVID-19 at your centers?

A: Yes, we currently offer rapid COVID-19 testing if clinically indicated after a Virtual Visit with a provider.

Q: Can I walk in for the test?

A: Please schedule a Virtual Visit prior to coming into a center for a COVID-19 Evaluation. If clinically appropriate based on CDC and state guidelines, our provider will schedule you for an in-person rapid COVID-19 test at one of our centers.

Q: Should I go to the ER if I have COVID-19 symptoms?

A: If your symptoms are severe (trouble breathing, chest pain, fainting, uncontrollable pain) and you feel like you need to be hospitalized, you should seek emergency care right away. However, if your symptoms are mild to moderate we are recommending you stay home to self-quarantine, while continuing to monitor symptoms.

Dorysa M. - Texas
Great service! Have been here and they were quick, thorough and very friendly. It is hard to find urgent cares that meet all of those standards. I came as a walk in and waited only 5 min. You can also schedule an appointment online.

Last Friday I cut myself pretty badly on my elbow and I needed stitches. Called my doctors office and they had no availability. Called Golden Gate Urgent Care and they gave me an appointment within an hour. It was a pleasant experience from start to finish. I was in and out in less than an hour.

Holy cow these guys are great. Fast, professional, friendly. They really listen to you.The doctor's first words were, "Sorry that you're here, we know you'd rather be doing something else on a Friday afternoon." Dang. Is this normal? They don't see as many people in-person, which I think gives them more time and energy for better care.
