Utterly dissapointed, pregnant and got turned away just for wanting to do a covid test

I went to healthworx at Randridge mall yesterday to get a covid test done, I was very sick and on top of it heavily pregnant, but they refused to help me saying that the Lancet was only for patients that used the Healthworx doctor, why are you trying to make money off people in these devastating times, its disgusting, i was absolutely disgusted with this, why must we use a healrhworx doctor who no one doesnt take medical aid and wants to charge an arm and a leg for a consultation, i had my doctor who referred me to get a test and since dischem all of a sudden stopped doing covid tests i tried the lancet in the healthworx just to be turned away, i had to then drive to wilgeheuwel sick as a dog amd pregnant to go get a test, just stop exploiting people in these difficult times, its really terrible, just help people who need help, all they are asking for is a test, were not asking to be seen for free, this stupid agreement you have with healthworx who rip people off is really not worth your reputation
