I was continuing to have some breathing problems with acute  bronchitis. Did a follow  up visit to have them determine if any new meds were needed. Lungs and respiratory were clearing so none needed.I went on my way happy I did visit for peace of mind.I definitely would recommend AAC for urgent care needs.

My husband had been in a few days earlier tested negative for Flu, Covid, and RSV but chest x-ray showed a little pneumonia. I started coughing Thursday night so I went straight in on Friday hoping to head it off at the pass but the doctor ran no test, said she didn’t hear wheezing even though I was and every the xray tech heard it. She gave me some cough pills and sent me on my way. I have continued to deteriorate now having sore throat and on and off spiking a low fever. Not impressed with the care I received. The PA my husband had was far more attentive. Update: The head doctor called me personally because he found this unacceptable and had me go back in for testing. I tested positive for Influenza A so I really appreciated his due diligence to get me answers so I have adjusted my overall score to reflect his efforts. Thank you Dr. Shital-Hiten Upadhyay.

First time as a Canadian using a U.S. health care service. From the moment a walked in, the front desk person was friendly and extremely helpful in filling out my information and going over the details of my visit and the service fees. The medical team, including the doctor, were knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. I was diagnosed quickly and next steps were put in place. Fantastic service and friendly staff! Thank you!

Have had a chronic cough and decided to stop in to see if I could be seen. No problem. My visit took about an hour but that included a nebulizer treatment and a chest xray. All the medical staff were friendly and caring. I would definitely go back if I needed medical treatment.

I started experiencing bladder pains and realized I was getting a UTI. Being on vacation and from out of town, I didn’t know where to get help. I went online and found the clinic and I am so happy I went to AFC Urgent Care. The receptionist could not have been more helpful and the assistant who took my vitals was so professional and kind. The doctor was so thorough and made sure she addressed every concern. My medication was called in and ready in less than a half hour. This was such a wonderful experience and I highly recommend this urgent care. Thank you for taking such great care of me!!

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.
