When your child has a fever, sore throat, stomach upset, or a rash that is getting harder to ignore, waiting days for answers can feel stressful. On-site lab testing can help narrow down what is causing the symptoms in the same visit, so you can move from uncertainty to a clear care plan sooner.
At ABC Pediatric Urgent Care - Eugene Chung, MD, we offer on-site lab testing for children and young adults ages 0 to 21 at our Ashburn, VA location. If your child needs a rapid check for illness, an infection, or another common concern, you can walk in for care without an appointment and get evaluated during the same visit.
Not every illness needs a lab test, but some symptoms are much easier to treat once the source is better understood. Testing can help when a child has signs that overlap between common conditions, such as a cold that could also be flu, strep, an ear-related infection, or another illness that needs a different approach.
We may recommend testing when a child has:
Testing can also support a school, sports, or activity-related visit when a quick medical answer helps guide what comes next.
On-site lab testing at our clinic is designed to support urgent pediatric and young adult care. Depending on the symptom pattern, we may use tests that help identify the cause of illness or confirm whether a condition is likely viral, bacterial, or related to something else that should be watched more closely.
These are the kinds of symptoms that often lead families to seek testing during a walk-in visit:
Testing is often one part of a larger visit. The exam, symptom history, and lab results all work together so we can recommend care that matches what your child is actually experiencing. That may mean home care instructions, a treatment plan, or referral to a pediatric specialist when a closer follow-up is needed.
Walk in, check in, and tell us what has changed. Because many families visit during active symptoms, the process is built to be efficient and focused on what your child needs now. You do not need to book ahead for a visit.
ABC Pediatric Urgent Care serves families seven days a week from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM, which gives parents and caregivers a practical option when a child’s symptoms cannot wait for a later appointment.
When children feel sick, symptoms can change quickly. A child who seemed tired at breakfast may be resting all afternoon or refusing to eat by dinner. On-site lab testing helps reduce guesswork, which can matter when deciding whether a problem is likely minor, needs treatment, or should be followed closely.
Families often choose testing because it can:
For pediatric and young adult patients, that clarity can make the rest of the day easier to manage.
On-site lab testing may be used alongside care for a wide range of acute and wellness-related concerns. The exact test depends on age, symptoms, and exam findings, but it is often helpful for common illnesses that come through urgent care.
Fever, cough, sore throat, flu symptoms, stomach upset, and infections are common reasons families come to our Ashburn clinic. Testing can help confirm what fits best and guide treatment decisions.
For minor injuries, minor procedures, or symptoms that raise questions about infection, testing may support the care plan when a closer look is needed.
Sports physicals and new patient visits may also include review of current health concerns, making the visit more useful when a child needs both evaluation and practical follow-up.
A little preparation can make the visit smoother, especially if your child is not feeling well. You do not need a long checklist, but bringing a few basics helps us understand the situation faster.
If your child has been seen elsewhere recently, sharing that information can also help connect the dots during the evaluation.

Yes. Fever is one of the most common reasons families seek urgent care, and testing can help identify whether the cause is likely viral, bacterial, or something else that needs a different plan.
It can be. When a child has vomiting, diarrhea, or stomach pain, lab testing may help guide the visit if the symptoms suggest an illness that should be checked more closely.
It may, depending on what is discussed during the visit. If new symptoms come up during a sports physical, testing can help address them without sending you to another location first.
