If you’re experiencing possible symptoms of the flu—such as fever, chills, aches, or cough—you can quickly find the answers you need at Affinity Urgent Care in La Marque, Texas. Our experienced practitioners offer walk-in flu tests that are performed and evaluated onsite, as well as rapid COVID-19 testing and other important clinical lab tests.

What Does a Flu Test Involve?

The flu (influenza) is a highly contagious viral infection. Flu tests screen for influenza viruses A and B and help rule out other common causes of flu symptoms, such as the cold, as well as less common but more serious illnesses like COVID-19.

During a rapid flu test, a long, thin cotton swab is gently inserted toward the back of the throat to collect a saliva sample. The sample is then promptly evaluated in our clinical lab and results are usually ready in about 15 minutes. Based on the outcome of the test, our practitioners will prescribe an appropriate treatment plan and provide guidance on how to avoid spreading illness to others.

"We have a special needs daughter who needed her foot looked at. Thankful that Affinity accepted her Medicaid first of all. Staff was nice, did not have a long wait, doctor was knowledgeable and understanding with our daughter, which means a lot. She was able to get x-rays done on her foot and received the results before we left. A great place to go on short notice."

"Facility was very clean. Very short wait. The doctor and x-ray tech were great!!"

"Fast and friendly. Was in and out in about an hour, and the PA and nurses were great. Much better experience than the ER."

"The Affinity care clinic in Galveston was wonderful. I walked in Memorial Day (without an appointment) and was seen by a very courteous and helpful staff. I highly recommend them."

"My experience at this urgent care facility was a pleasant one. I brought my daughter in due to an allergic reaction. The staff members there were awesome!"
