If you've never been there then it might be a little confusing to find where you go for the testing. that's because they are trying to keep you separated from the rest of the patients and staff members. You'll need to enter the building where the wheelchair ramp is where the building  L’s out.   You can preregister at the link above but you can also just walk in.  Be mindful that staff may not be there at lunch hours. So it might be best to go before noon or after 1 PM. If you are trying to get your test results you'll need to use the code PROHLTTX for this location.

It's been difficult to find the booster shots around town but they do have these too. You can get a Pfizer booster if you have had already had your first two shots. You can receive your booster (3rd dose) of Moderna if you are immune-compromised.
