I don't normally see this provider. I went because I was pretty sure I had strep throat given my symptoms, but when I got there instead I was question about why I didn't take a home COVID test first and why I wouldn't think this was the flu. He seemed to give me a strep test only as I seemed to insist on in and then told me he expected it to come out negative but that the test gives a lot of false negatives. So the rapid test came back negative but when it came back from the lab I did indeed have a strep infection. He did not start antibiotics until 48 hours later and I suffered greatly during those 48 hours! I don't understand why I would pay for 2 tests, one that is known to have a lot of false negatives and one that seems to be the real test. Seems to me you need to get the labs to process the real test a bit fast so patients could have relief quicker.
