Coronavirus (COVID-19) Testing
Testing is available for anyone with or without symptoms.
Testing options and locations
Each of our clinics below has testing options available depending on your current situation. Please see the details on which location makes the most sense for you.
- Please do not go to the Emergency Department for your COVID-19 test. It is easier and much faster to get tested at designated testing locations and clinics across Hennepin County. Please visit MN Department of Health testing locations to find a location option that works best for you.
- Wait times may vary and clinic closing times may be earlier due to very high patient volume.
