Wait time was unreasonable with having an appointment and almost no other patients. Was put into a tiny room which was extremely hot. Having an intense and painful infection with the hot temp in the room was awful and started sweating bad.ย  Staff was great though but office needs a dr at all appts and more than one dr.ย  I would only return if there was no other option.

Went in with a high fever, body aches, migraine, delirium, chest pain, weakness and hardship breathing. Staff never checked my temperature. My partner, Michael Quinn was also seen the same day for the same symptoms. The staff member he spoke to didnโ€™t recognize the term pulmonary which is quite scary and concerning. For my partner, they only checked BP. No temp or pulse ox taken.

The woman who ran the front desk today was such a pleasure. She educated me on how to use my insurance correctly and I appreciated that so much! She was so polite and helpful. She was also training a new employee and praising her for how great she was doing. It was so nice to see. It was such a pleasure visiting this location today.

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.
