Brought my granddaughter in for fever and so throat.  Staff was great !!  Friendly and caring.  Scheduling an appointment on line was very easy.  Our wait time to get into a room to be seen, in my opinion, was unsatisfactory.  We had an 11:00 appointment and never go into a room till almost 12:30.  Because of the staff I would use this urgent care again.  Hopefully the wait would be better.

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.

My daughter had a UTI on a holiday weekend.  We were able to walk in without an appointment and our wait was not very long. The staff was amazing starting with the receptionist right through to the nurses, Lab Tech and Doctor. They were friendly, kind, patient, efficient, very helpful and informative. They anticipated our needs and were extremely welcoming. Sarah went home with the treatment she needed and a big smile on her face. So did I.   We would highly recommend AFC to anyone looking for medical care. It was the best emergency care experience we ever received.

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've had to visit urgent care for various ailments, and every time, I have received compassionate care. They take patients' safety seriously - as an immunocompromised patient, I've always felt secure about the cleanliness of the facility and the sanitary protocols are followed by staff well. Hopefully that won't change now that they've teamed up with UMass; UMass hospitals are a horror show, esp. Memorial in Worc. BIG MRSA problem there but they hide it from the patients!

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.
