COVID-19 Testing
Harvard Street Neighborhood Health Center is proud to offer free COVID-19 testing to everyone. There are several ways to get tested.

Testing
However, if you would like to get vaccinated or tested for COVID-19, please call (617-825-3400) or visit our main site (632 Blue Hill Avenue, Dorchester, MA 02121).
Address: 895 Blue Hill Ave, Boston, MA 02124
Testing is available by appointment and the hours above are subject to change. Walk-ins will be accepted only if there is availability. We strongly recommend calling ahead and booking an appointment. Please bring a photo ID and insurance if possible.
It will typically take 24-72 hours to receive your test results. Please wait for us to contact you regarding your results. All patients tested will receive a phone call with their results.
If you gave an email address when you registered for your test, and your test result is negative, you will receive an email directly from the lab as soon as your test has been processed. The sender’s email address is NoReply@lknotification.com. The subject line will say “Lab results available from your provider.” You will also get a phone call to follow up and confirm that you received the email.
If you did not give an email address, you will get a phone call. Please note that it does take time to call all of our patients, so giving an email address is the fastest way to get your result.
If you test positive, you will not receive an email with the positive result. Someone will call you as soon as possible to notify you of your result and go over important information about the next steps. A contact tracer from the City or State may also contact you.
We can help you set up an account on our online patient portal when we call you with results. This will give you access to a PDF document with your test result. You can then print, email, download, and screenshot that result.
Patients and community members can pick up free rapid tests at both Prince Hall Grand Lodge and our main clinic at 632 Blue Hill Ave during our regular hours at these locations. Tests are available while supplies last.
You can schedule your vaccine appointment online at your earliest convenience or the COVID line at 617-245-8206
