Went to UC yesterday staff was friendly and very professional, struggled a bit with registration (at my age we all are not computer saby). Besides I was in a lot of pain It took me more time to register than to be seen by the Dr. I don't know where technology is trying to bring us but, while I was struggling with registration the two receptionists where entertaining each other without their cellphones.

I came here two weeks ago for strep. I tested negative with the swab and the culture also apparently came back negative (I never received a call and followed up myself). Two weeks later the sore throat returned and I have a very swollen tonsil on one side. I was prescribed a second round of antibiotics for strep, which is fine but I’m confused why I wasn’t swabbed again because as far as they know I never tested positive, and could be subjecting myself to another round of antibiotics without knowing for sure it’s strep. I’m confused on how I’m now doing two full treatments for strep with no positive diagnosis. I hope it’s not mono or something else.

I brought my son in really disappointed after he cut his hand on a metal sign. Every single staff person I came in contact with was extremely helpful, nice and accommodating. The provider was awesome. He attended to us quickly and had us out in 20 minutes. I appreciate everyone here. Keep up the great work.

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.
