We’re Here 7 Days a Week to Help Patients With Their Flu Testing & Diagnosis Questions
Residents in Hamden, Connecticut, and the surrounding areas can turn to PhysicianOne Urgent Care when they need help with their flu symptoms. It’s important to be seen by a medical care professional within 48 hours of first feeling flu symptoms, as anti-viral drugs are most effective within that window. When you visit us, you’ll be seen by an experienced and caring medical provider who will take the time to evaluate your symptoms and let you know whether or not you have the flu. In most cases, we can diagnose the flu without a flu test, but if it’s deemed necessary, we can conduct a flu test onsite.
