We use PCR tests, which are self-administered anterior/non-invasive swabs under the guidance and supervision of a Registered Nurse.
You will receive your results in 24-48 hours by email. We also call as many patients as we can whether positive or negative.
If you have not received your results by email within 24-48 hours of your test…

Registration is not required. We are a first-come-first-served walk thru site!
If you have had close contact or known exposure in recent days, you should continue to quarantine until day 10 post-exposure as you may be in the incubation phase still. So, if you were exposed 3 days ago, and received a negative test 2 days ago, you may have received a false negative. Please remain quarantined and get another test done 10 days from the date you were exposed.
Yes!
Even if you were tested at the same time, most swabs do not stay together during the testing process. Because of this, you may receive your results at different times. Because we strive to contact you as soon as we can, one person may receive their results bright and early while another receives them later in the afternoon. This is nothing to worry about!
When a test is inconclusive (neither positive nor negative), it usually means that not enough residue was collected at the time of your test. Without a good swab, our testing system is unable to determine whether you are infected. If this happens, we recommend being tested again at your earliest convenience.
LCG Boston is proud to work with the City of Boston and the Boston Public Health Commission to provide our residents with the means to obtain free testing. We are committed to promoting and supporting our neighbors’ health and well-being and urge everyone to respect the safety of their loved ones and peers to minimize the risk of spreading the virus. In wake of the holiday season, it is particularly imperative that we work together as a community to flatten the curve by following CDC safety guidelines and getting tested when necessary. Together we can save lives and hasten our mission to return to some semblance of normalcy.
Our Jamaica Plain location will be available through May. Keep an eye on our website and social media accounts for up-to-date testing hours!
