  1. The rapid test they are using is an updated version, and they have shown to show the same as the overnight in 95+% cases. Urgent cares are designed to make money on you and not really help you. You are not their patient, and they always tell you to follow up with your Dr. The sad part is that your Primary Dr gets paid $35 for the visit, while the urgent care makes +150$.

  3. The not giving overnight strep test is a money grab by the urgent cares and forcing you to come back for a second visit while you could potentially infect others. People should demand another culture or walk out and don't let them get away with it.
    What a chutzpah!

    1. Mr 924 AM, it's total nonsense.
      How many will come back a second time? Almost none.
      You want to be negative? You may but why spread it to others.
      Mark my words You will be happier by expanding your generous heart to your thoughts by thinking kindly of others!

    2. We are all kind but sometimes get pulled in by the Satan to spread hatred. But we can stop and think how much better can I do by just thinking positively.

    3. Sounds like u iare nvested in urgent cares. The rapid are not accurate happens many times that the overnight comes back positive after a negative rapid. Isome people have strep and it does not detect on the rapid. Now they go home having strep and infect everyone around them eventually they feel realy sick when the step grows and they get fever. Now they will go back again to get another culture which vrings more money to the UC as they can charge for another visit.
      Let them have rachmanus on us and think kindly of others.

    4. Sorry I am not vested in any business. However I am very clearly vested in spreading love.
      I don't think that I am better than you because I truly believe that we are all innately vested in spreading good and kindness.

    5. Go spread love elsewhere go speak to the people who are hurting innocent people and ruining their quality of life.
      You love is misplaced having rachmanus on achzarim

    6. Nebach quality of life affected by UCs. I think you should better check yourself into a Rehab for some mental health care.
      Maybe you have a lot of anger bottled up or you were born in Mazel maadim!
      Either become a shochet mohel or better yet the Israeli army or the the NYPD!

    7. Nebach you have such a disdain hatred for whoever does not agree with you as chazel say one who has rachmanus on aczarim will end up being a achzar on rachmanim.

      Delete
    8. Sorry I am not talking with hatred.
      I simply feel bad for you and anyone else who has no other way in life other than judging others.
      Chazal give us an eitza to be Dan kol adam lekaf zechut!
      Do yourself and your family a favor and get yourself help so you can regulate your emotions.
      I truly wish you all the best.

    9. 355pm anon, it sounds like you are the hot headed writer who can't accept that people disagree with what you perceive as the only truth. That is why in 953 you accuse the other writer as being vested in the UCs, otherwise they wouldn't disagree with you.....! Lol

    10. Urgent cares can do what they want - If any urgent care refuses to do a throat culture - I will go elsewhere - in fact I may make some calls just to find out who I should take off my urgent care list..

  7. Aisle 9 shopping center in Jackson is not for Lakewood style driving. I saw someone get a ticket trying to make the left turn sitting in the middle lane.Jackson residents can drive there from the other direction and make a right turn when finished shopping.
