You can get your A1C tested at the following locations:

  • Doctor's Office: Your primary care physician can order the test and have it done during your visit.
  • Laboratories: Many labs, such as Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp, offer A1C testing. You may need a doctor's referral.
  • Pharmacies: Some pharmacies, like CVS or Walgreens, offer A1C testing services without a prescription.
  • Community Health Clinics: These clinics often provide low-cost or free A1C testing, especially for those at risk of diabetes.

Before getting tested, check if fasting is required or if you need an appointment. Always consult with a healthcare provider to interpret your results.
