I have been feeling sick since Wednesday. I was able to schedule an appointment and got in for 11:00 am. Wait time was a bit long but the services received outweighed the wait

Woke up that morning in severe pain in my back and upper rib cage.  I had been feeling that pain for about a week and during that week it got predominately worse.  The wait time was over two hours.  That was the worse thing about my visit.  Other than that the visit and doctor were very professional.  Yes, I would recommend this provider.

I cut my leg badly a couple of days ago and needed help asap! I immediately thought of the closest Urgent Care on Valley Forge Rd. and Sumneytown Pike in Lansdale. I was a walk-in and there were a couple of sick children ahead of me so they immediately got me to a private room where I wouldn't be exposed to germs and cleaned my leg while I waited for the on-duty physician's assistant, Catherine Moran. She was attending to those ahead of me but came in to evaluate my injury and informed me that the wound would require stitches. When she finished with the others, she attended to me and did an outstanding job! Not only was the stitching painless but the quality of her handiwork was fabulous! She was calm and reassuring as were the nurse who performed the preliminary duties (blood pressure, information gathering, etc.) and staff. I was impressed with the competence of everyone involved and would highly recommend this facility to anyone in need! Thank you to all of the staff who helped me!

They didn't ask when I first had symptoms and that would have determined the outcome of a covid test. They could have suggested I wait at least another day before returning there. As a result, I tested negative at AFC and positive two days later. As a result, my $55 copay was wasted.

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends hepatitis testing for various groups. These include individuals who have been exposed to blood through needle use, health care or public safety workers with exposure to blood on the job, people with certain medical conditions, and individuals born between 1945 and 1965. Additionally, anyone who has had sexual contact with someone infected with hepatitis should get tested.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial as it helps in early detection and treatment, reducing the risk of severe liver damage. It also helps prevent the spread of the disease to others. According to the CDC, many people with hepatitis do not have symptoms and do not know they are infected. Therefore, testing is the only sure way to know if you have the disease.

Hepatitis testing options in Philadelphia, PA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

There are numerous urgent care and walk-in clinics in Philadelphia that offer hepatitis testing. One option is Carbon Health located at 701 S Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19147. You can book same-day and next-day testing appointments at these clinics through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers are another reliable source for hepatitis testing. They can provide ongoing care and treatment after the test results.

Free STD testing and community health centers

There are also free STD testing centers and community health centers in Philadelphia that offer hepatitis testing. These centers are a good option for those who cannot afford to pay for testing.

At-home testing

At-home testing kits for hepatitis are also available. These kits provide privacy and convenience, allowing individuals to take the test at their own comfort.

Prevalence of hepatitis in Philadelphia

Philadelphia has seen a significant number of hepatitis cases over the years. According to the CDC, the city has a higher rate of hepatitis compared to nearby counties like Hampden County and Berkshire County. The trend over time shows a steady increase in hepatitis cases, highlighting the need for increased awareness and testing.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in Philadelphia

Several risk factors contribute to the prevalence of hepatitis in Philadelphia. These include unprotected sex, drug use, and lack of vaccination. The city's proximity to other urban centers like Camden and Millbourne also increases the risk due to the movement of people.

Other STDs in Philadelphia

In addition to hepatitis, Philadelphia has a high prevalence of other STDs/STIs including gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis. The rates of these diseases are also higher compared to other nearby counties and cities. This underscores the need for regular STD testing and safe practices to prevent their spread.
