having experienced quarantine and stay, time to go home


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello Good People,

 

After arriving here and going through quarantine, and seeing this lovely country  in spite of its struggle to survive, my time here is almost over and will soon be going home to the US. My question herein is about getting the last PCR test needed for me to gain entry back to the US.

 

While here at Citrus Suites 6 (ASQ hotel), I went through the usual regimen of being tested (got 3 pcr tests at the hotel all of which were neg). I have two interrelated questions.

 

Now that I'm delinked from the hotel and their links to Piyavate Hospital (which oversaw a cluster of ASQ sites nearby):

 

1) Which hospital/clinic  can I go to for getting my last PCR test so that I can leave? For those not in the know, Singapore now requires a PCR test to be taken 48 hours before arriving in the city, a smaller window than before which mandated 72 hours (am stopping in Sing before transiting to the USA). Thus, whatever hospital I go to needs to give me assurances that they will have the result for me in short order before I leave for Sing and Los Angeles.

 

2) For those that did get this test, how long did you have to wait at the hospital--that is, is it an all day event where one needs to arrive at dawn and wait in a long queue? Am asking because I need to time manage for this in ways that also leave me some room to be with family. At this time, I have two jabs of Pfizer already (mandated for certain employees in the USA), and have passed every PCR test given to me at the ASQ when I stayed there. My understanding is that I can just walk in, show them my passport and documents showing good health, and simply wait for a few hours to be called?

Thank you for any tips coming this way. I am willing to answer other questions for you if I am able to as well. Thanks for any info coming this way. 

Sincerely,

 

Trent

Dr. Donna, https://www.medconsultasia.com. Lots of very favorable reviews on FB forums.

8 weeks ago I went in before 9 AM and asked for results within 24 hours. I had my results before 7 PM. 

 

Long slow line to pay but total time was just over an hour.

Thank you Jersey! This is exactly the info I need. Love this forum!

Make an appt online. Input your DOB and passport info. You'll get an email verifying the details. Take your passport to the location and they will again verify the info and it will appear on the test results. The RT-PCR test is 2,500B.

Another vote for Dr. Donna. It was a breeze for my wife and I to get same-day PCR test results prior to our departure for the U.S. Highly recommended.
