My children have had a fever for 3 days with headaches. Where can I get tested for strep throat without a doctor's visit?

Hello Ma'am,

Sorry first for the delay in response.

In a situation like this, and since I don't know of any pharmacies in the Joliette area that offer Strept-Test™ service, you will indeed have to try to see a doctor.

Sorry I can't be more helpful to you at this time.

It's my pleasure,

Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
