COVID-19 Testing
in Denver, CO
Finding information on COVID-19 testing can be overwhelming.
We have put together a step-by-step guide to help you prepare for your visit at our Denver Drive-Up.
Step 1 - Book Your COVID-19 Test Appointment At Our Denver Location
-
We highly encourage booking your COVID-19 test appointment in advance. When you book your appointment in advance, we guarantee that you can get tested on the day of your appointment.
-
We accept walk-ins until capacity is reached each day. Due to the recent increase in demand, we have had to ask some people to come back the next day. Please consider booking an appointment if at all possible.
Step 2 - Visit Our
COVID-19 Test Site in Denver
-
We are located in the parking lot of the former Kmart store on the corner of Monaco and Evans in North East Denver.
-
Enter either from North bound Monaco Parkway on the West side of the parking lot or from East bound Evans Avenue on the North side of the parking lot.
Step 3 - Check-in
-
The COVID-19 Drive Up at our Denver location has two tents.
-
The cold tent is located closest to the Evans Ave. (Northern) side of the parking lot and the hot tent is located closest to the South side of the parking lot.
-
Cars will first stop at the cold tent where one of our four cold tent staff members will approach your car to check you in.
Step 4 - COVID-19 Test
-
Once we have all of your information you will pull your car forward to the hot tent where our medical personnel will meet you.
-
For the PCR test, our Nurse Practitioner will put a 6-inch cotton swab up in your nostrils and will move it around for about 15-seconds. The test won’t hurt, but may feel slightly uncomfortable.
-
For the COVID-19 Antibody test, our Phlebotomist will draw a blood sample from the inner part of your forearm.
-
Once your tests are completed you will exit the parking lot either on Memorial Way, Monaco Parkway, or Evans Ave.
Step 5 - Your COVID-19 Test Results Will Be Emailed in 36-72 Hours
-
Your test results will be ready in 2-3 business days. Result turnaround time is subject to change dependent on specimen volume.
