From the moment we stepped in to the moment we walked out, it was a pleasant visit. The girl who took my daughter’s vitals was very nice, very attentive, and the Dr was a sweetheart!!!! Totally recommend!!! The man at the front desk was so nice to pause a movie to give my daughter the title so we could continue it at home. The girl at the front desk nicely explained how the ticket validation went in order for them to be successful. Zero complaints!!!

I was very disappointed because my appointment was for an x-ray and the x-ray machine was broken and has been for some time. No one bother to let me know that it was broken so the appointment was a waste of time

I am mortified that Dr did not do anything to me. He just looked at it and said I had cellulitis. My leg is on fire. It’s huge it hurts. It’s painful and he didn’t wanna pop it and gave me some anabiotic and that’s it. I’ve been laying in bed ever since so no I’m not fine He didn’t even touch it. It’s it’s so painful and it looks so infected.

I have come to this clinic multiple times and they have always treated me with respect. I always hear people saying that they don’t have a good attitude. But if I’m having a real urgent matter the last thing I’m worried but is the tone of someone’s voice. Plus they’ll for sure have you in within 2 hours or less and i don’t know about you but that huge plus for me. So in simple terms if you want fast, good doctors, and simple check-in without the fake over excited workers then come here.

About Folate Testing

Folate Testing, also known as folic acid or vitamin B9 testing, is a diagnostic test that measures the level of folate in the blood. Folate is an essential B-vitamin that plays a crucial role in cell division, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell production. Testing for folate levels helps identify deficiencies that can lead to various health issues.
