Experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19? Our health centers at Max Robinson Center, 2301 Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue SE, and near Logan Circle, at 1525 14th Street NW, are providing COVID-19 testing to folks who are experiencing symptoms. You do not need to be a patient with Whitman-Walker to access COVID-19 testing. However, we will need to register you as a patient to proceed with testing.
Need to get tested for COVID-19? Call us first. It is important that you call Whitman-Walker at 202-745-7000 and share information about your symptoms before visiting any of our locations for COVID-19 testing. Calling ahead allows our team to evaluate your symptoms and to plan for the safest testing experience to keep you and our care providers as healthy as possible. If you have to walk-in and cannot call ahead of time, we will not turn you away, but we may ask you to come back later when an appointment is available.
What changes has Whitman-Walker made during COVID-19? At Whitman-Walker, we have transitioned our in-person care services to telehealth – providing care to people in their homes through video and audio communication. We are only conducting emergency dental visits. Our Whitman-Walker health centers at 1525 14th Street NW and Max Robinson Center at 2301 Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue SE remain open for COVID-19 testing with reduced hours. Our pharmacies at 1525 14th Street NW and at 2303 Martin Luther King Jr. SE are open with reduced hours and they are offering free delivery for prescriptions. We have closed the lobbies at both pharmacy locations to help keep you and our team healthy. If delivery is not an option for you, call our team directly at 866-724-1805.
