Hello

 This is a clinic that has been recommended many times on the forum  http://www.imedtorrevieja.com/en/

It is located in the area   behind the Habaneras Shopping Centre Torrevieja,  , behind Specsavers,  but it is signposted.

I dont know their opening hours over the holiday period so, if you don't find them on the link, then give them a call to confirm.

Cheers

Elinspain

Hi Tessie,

         at the moment the pre-travel test back to the UK from Spain can be a later flow or antigen test, it does not need to be a PCR test. As recommended above IMED is a good clinic to use.

  In the UK itself their are a number of PCR test providers that can be used for the day 2 test. Most airlines have a list of providers that they have arrangements with who will generally give a discounted test.. 

  Personally for PCR in the UK I have used Testingforall and Randox Health, both were fine. I am assuming you are going back after Xmas? You return Testingforall samples to their labs by Royalmail, Randox you use a drop box or they also have walk-in clinics in a nuber of locations around the UK. Costs for the above are between £43 and £55 depending upon which company you use and the type of test (at home or walk-in).  

  There are many other providers that can be used, it also depends upon where you are flying into in the UK if you want a walk-in test. 

Rgds,

Aitch.

expert medical  do day 2 pcr tests delivered to a uk address for £28 to return via royal mail designated post box's but you have to book before filling in your uk locator forms as it needs a reference number,

can order online or phone

As recommended in an earlier post review feedback before choosing any supplier, i.e. Expert-Medicals
