I woke up this AM with UTI sx. My insurance sent me to Tran Urgent Care. I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of scheduling, the care, and the prompt care as well. I would like to see an improved patient portal experience. The provider and staff were kind and knowledgeable.

The doctor was very condescending. While trying to explain my sons complex Medical history and issues he turn and looks at my son then looks at me and asked if my son could not speak. That was extremely disrespectful and inappropriate

Woke up with the symptoms of a UTI and went straight to urgent care and got on the waiting list. I was seen early due to cancellations and I was in and out in what felt like 15 minutes. The doctor, nurses, and staff were so friendly, compassionate, and knowledgeable, and made my experience the best it could be considering the circumstances. If I need care in the future, Indigo in Milton is at the top of my list!

Very easy to schedule appt for a same day. Was surprised by the fact that they are paperless and in order to view anything you have to download their app. It’s been 2 days and still no results, as for the medication you have to go on the appt and send it your self to the pharmacy otherwise you will not get it. Overall it was a good visit but it could have improved on some things for sure.

Had made an appt for tomorrow for a lingering cold/sore throat/earache but was feeling worse as the day progressed. I called to see if walk-ins were accepted and was told yes and the likely wait time. And then was told that they could text me when the wait had lessened. So kind! I ended up going within half an hour...figured I might as well wait there. And the check-in was efficient and fast. I was seen quickly, all my questions were answered and I was reassured about my symptoms. An OTC was prescribed after it was determined I was negative for strep or tonsillitis or an ear infection. (They even cleaned one ear, which was clogged with wax - a new experience for me. I came away SO IMPRESSED with all the staff - kind, professional, helpful and efficient!! Would definitely recommend this provider!!

Very good facility. Only hour wait time as a walk in. Called to see if I could schedule walk in over the phone for my daughter who had double ear infection. Very quick and happy to help. Even offered her snacks and some apple juice to accompany the wait time! Very polite and considerate of her care and needs. Great staff. Will definitely come here again if needed! Wish they all were this easy and professional! Nicely done.

Scheduling was super easy and convenient rather than doing walk in. We were seen right at our appt time. The nurses and doctors were friendly and caring. The ladies who checked us in were also very friendly and quick! Always a great experience.

I went to Indigo for a second visit for the same ear infection. This time me I saw Michelle. She was wonderful. She listened to me, changed the medication and added one. After only two days I’m starting to feel a difference. The staff is always courteous, friendly and extremely efficient. My prescriptions are always called into the pharmacy even before I leave the office.  I really value this place. They bill my insurance and seldom make me wait more than a day or two to get in. I actually prefer it to my insurance physicians. BTW I was offered an appt in my network for an INFECTION in 4 months!  Unbelievable.

I woke up this morning feeling absolutely under the weather, I went in as a walk in and was told that the wait was over two hours, and I ended up being seen in less than one! Everyone in this facility was so caring and sweet, I definitely felt safe and like they actually cared, which seems very rare in many places these days. I will be coming back here if needed.

Excellent experience. Front desk and intake staff were friendly and efficient. Clinician was thorough and explained her recommendations clearly. This is my second visit. No scheduled appointments were available, so I joined the waiting list and went home. I was notified that my turn was coming up when it was time to return to the clinic, then was seen promptly...very convenient.

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.
