I appreciate the follow up from the doctor. She was much easier to get in touch with than my primary care doctor and she was very helpful. She arranged to get me a boot for my fracture at another AFC location. The staff at the second location were also very friendly and helpful.

Nice and capable staff for Covid 19 test. Very busy, so a bit of a wait for callbacks and when at site, and needed to call at site to get staff to come to car. Signed up for antibody test beforehand but not available when I got there. I am glad because the test is up to $200, depending on how much insurance covers. Call insurance first for sure.

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.
