Hamilton Physician Group Offering Rapid Flu Test

September 3, 2020

Hamilton Physician Group (HPG), part of Hamilton Health Care System, is offering ID NOW™ Influenza A & B 2, the fastest rapid molecular flu test, at its Convenient Care locations.

The ID NOW™ delivers flu results in 13 minutes or less, making it faster than other molecular methods and more accurate than conventional rapid tests.

“This rapid flu test is reliable, and it allows us to make quick, effective treatment decisions,” said Holly Andrews, director of business administration for HPG.

Positive results are delivered in as few as 5 minutes, with 95 percent detected within 7 minutes.

The speed and reliability of the test help target antiviral therapy and antimicrobial stewardship, a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.

Snodgrass recently joined Hamilton Physician Group – Convenient Care in Dalton. He is a board-certified family medicine physician.

He completed his medical training at Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, Kirksville, Mo.; his internship at the Naval Hospital Pensacola in Pensacola, Fla.; and his residency at the Medical Center of Columbus in Columbus, Ga. He recently provided primary care services in Calhoun and Rome.

His two older sisters are nurses, and his mother was a nurse practitioner, “so I’ve always wanted to be involved in the healthcare field,” Snodgrass says. “I wanted to be in family practice because of the variety. All patients have different needs.”

In his free time, Snodgrass says he enjoys fishing, hiking and water activities.

Snodgrass provides primary care and is accepting new patients. Walk-ins are welcome. To schedule an appointment with him, call Hamilton Physician Group – Convenient Care at 706-529-3245.
