Melanie went out of her way to accommodate my husband and me when we came in to get Covid tests. Due to our unforeseen scheduling error, we didn't have an appointment at that time, but she said we could wait in case she could fit us in between patients, even though they were fully booked. She was able to complete our tests quickly and courteously. We were extremely pleased with the care we received. Thanks, Melanie!

I was from out of town and was able to get a same day appointment without issue. I only waited about 5 minutes after arriving and all the staff, nurse and doctor were kind and very helpful. My prescriptions were send to the correct location and ready for pick up in an hour. Overall excellent experience. Would definitely recommend.

The online scheduling was easy with the time slot availability shown. The hour is great, open later than others in the area, avoided going to ER. I arrived & check-in was smooth & no wait. Aria looked over my wound & stitch up the cut, & the support staff was friendly & professional. I barely felt it during the process, & she periodically reminded me if too painful, she can numb more. Great facility!

Was able to get my daughter in the same day for some mystery abdominal pain. I’ve been to the other locations but this was my first time at the Lafayette office. My daughter and I were both very impressed with how thorough the doctor is. He has such a calm bedside manner. The office itself has plenty of parking and this location is so cute!! The others are so cold and modern but this office has a cottage cozy feel (without being cramped) We will be using this location from now on

Juan, the medical assistant was good and receptive. The PA who saw me was also good but I just didn't agree with her recommendations. She was gracious to accept my opinion and she maintained her professionalism despite my disagreement. She did tell me that she was putting me on dexamethasone but forgot to explain the dosage; and also antibiotic but I already know what to do with the antibiotic. I thought the prednisone was a little high--40 mg everyday for seven days. It may be a good dose but for me, it gives me quiver and crave for food that's the reason why I was hesitant to take it. She did offer me to be nebulizer but I said I'll do it at home.

Great first experience. The only issue I have is that no one there answers the phone. We got a prescription sent to a pharmacy (our standard one) and the pharmacy didn’t have it in stock. Because carbon health does not answer the phone, where I could have had them submit the scrip to a new pharmacy, I needed to be the middle person on a wild goose chase between the pharmacy that didn’t have the medication and one that did. This is a very stressful position to be in as a parent with a very sick kid who desperately needs medicine. Other than that one component, I was happy with the experience. I reflected my disappointment under “staff friendliness”, as I wasn’t sure where else to put it. Staff wasn’t unfriendly, they just didn’t answer the phone.

This place is a hidden gem! I always try and avoid urgent care places as it’s usually a long wait, lots of people, not the cleanest and just difficult. But here, once I arrived the check in was seamless, the staff was friendly, the office very clean. And to top it off my doctor spent so much time with me ane was kind and listened. Highly recommend!

I am from out of state visiting in the area. I chose this facility from reading the reviews and roughly knew the area of the location. I made an online appointment. From the moment I walked into the facility, being seen and treated, I have nothing but praise and respect for the staff as well as the care I received. I’m this day and age and just visiting with having an unfortunate reason to be seen/treated I was completely satisfied. A little more pricey than I expected but what can I say? Thank you just the same for your professionalism.

After visiting Carbon about 10 days ago for an ear canal that was clogged with wax, my symptoms returned (ear pain, moist discharge from the ear canal.) So, unable to get an appointment with my PCP, I scheduled an appointment at Carbon. This time a different doctor saw me. As soon as she entered the room and asked me what was going on and learned that I had been using carbon oxide drops to try and re-clear my ear, she berated me and told me that I should not do that. She berated me over and over, like I was a stupid person, which put me off guard and had the effect of shutting me up. Then she looked in my ears and pronounced me to be healthy… nothing wrong. It felt like she wanted to be done with me. I told her that I had pain in my ear (to which she interrupted “take Advil”) and that every morning I woke up with a moist and slightly not nice smelling moist discharge coming from my ear. I asked if this is something that could be solved with antibiotics or steroids. She said she could give me prednisone “if I wanted” as if I would be the one to make the prescribing decision. Then I told her about the discharge and she said that she could give me some antibiotic drops, and that I should take Guifenesen. The doctor made very little effort to understand my issue and symptoms, and she had a pretty awful bedside manner. I would not want to see this doctor again. I left having zero sense of resolution, and zero confidence in the treatment plan she gave me. I guess I will try to see my PCP or go to an ENT. This was an awful waste of time and money. She prescribed antibiotic ear drops, and did not prescribe the prednisone.

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

Anyone who is at risk for hepatitis should consider getting tested. This includes individuals who have been exposed to the virus through contaminated blood or body fluids, shared needles, or unprotected sex. It also includes those who have traveled to areas with high rates of hepatitis, have a history of long-term liver disease, or have had a blood transfusion before 1992. According to the CDC, people born from 1945–1965, often referred to as baby boomers, are five times more likely to have hepatitis C than other adults.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial as it can lead to serious health problems if left untreated, including liver damage, cirrhosis, and liver cancer. Early detection can help prevent these complications and allow for timely treatment. Moreover, those who are unaware they have hepatitis can unknowingly transmit the virus to others. According to the CDC, an estimated 2.4 million people in the United States are living with hepatitis C, and many are unaware they are infected.

Hepatitis testing options in South San Francisco, CA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

There are several urgent care and walk-in clinics in South San Francisco and surrounding areas that offer hepatitis testing. For instance, Carbon Health in San Francisco, CA, with a 4.6 rating (40 reviews), offers testing services. You can book same-day and next-day appointments through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers are another reliable option for hepatitis testing. They can provide a comprehensive health check-up, including testing for hepatitis and other STDs/STIs.

Free STD testing and community health centers

Free STD testing and community health centers in South San Francisco also offer hepatitis testing. These centers provide services to individuals regardless of their ability to pay, making testing accessible to everyone.

At-home testing

Prevalence of hepatitis in South San Francisco

South San Francisco, located in San Mateo County, has seen a steady number of hepatitis cases over the years. While the exact numbers fluctuate, the trend is consistent with the national average. Compared to nearby counties like Washoe County and Yolo County, San Mateo County has a relatively lower prevalence of hepatitis.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in South San Francisco

Risk factors for hepatitis in South San Francisco are similar to those in other parts of the country. These include unprotected sex, sharing needles, exposure to contaminated blood or body fluids, and travel to areas with high rates of hepatitis. Additionally, certain populations, such as baby boomers, are at a higher risk.

Other STDs in South San Francisco

In addition to hepatitis, other STDs like gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis are also prevalent in South San Francisco. As with hepatitis, these diseases can be effectively diagnosed and treated if detected early, underscoring the importance of regular testing.
