Recognized symptoms of a UTI. Went online 1 pm. Signed up for a 2:45 appt. Got there, got tested, got a prescription, and was out of there in under a half hour. Couldn’t have been more satisfied with the experience. Highly recommend.

A friend of ours recommended Saint Thomas Urgent Care to us a few months ago. This is the 2nd time I’ve taken my kids here. Both times we’ve seen Amanda and both visits were exceptional! All staff were very kind, respectful & gave clear instructions. From the simple online checkin process of filling out everything in advance to being called back within 5min of arrival both times. No one likes going to the doctor, especially when they don’t feel well, but this location made the entire experience more pleasant. So for all of the reasons above, we will be back next time we’re ill. If you’re needing an urgent care clinic in the area, I highly recommend Saint Thomas!

I have had wonderful experiences with the Vanderbilt clinic on McEwen. They have been great help with two different ear problems, they gave me my Covid vacccination in record time, and I’m going back today for a non healing wound.

About Iron Testing

Iron Testing is a diagnostic test that measures the levels of iron in the blood. Iron is an essential mineral required for the production of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. Testing for iron levels helps assess iron deficiency or iron overload, both of which can have significant health implications.

Who Should Get Tested

Residents of Fairview, Tennessee, with symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, pale skin, dizziness, and shortness of breath may benefit from Iron Testing. Individuals with certain risk factors, such as chronic blood loss, poor dietary iron intake, pregnancy, or certain medical conditions, may also require testing.

Test Methods for Iron

Iron Testing typically involves measuring various components in the blood, including:

  1. Serum Iron: This measures the amount of iron circulating in the blood.
  2. Transferrin and Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC): These tests assess the body's capacity to bind and transport iron.
  3. Ferritin: This test measures ferritin, a protein that stores iron in cells and reflects iron levels in the body.

Interpreting the Results

The interpretation of Iron Testing results involves analyzing the levels of iron, transferrin, TIBC, and ferritin. Abnormalities in these values may indicate iron deficiency anemia or iron overload conditions.

Importance of Iron Testing

Iron Testing is important for:

  • Diagnosing iron deficiency anemia
  • Evaluating iron metabolism and storage in the body
  • Assessing the response to iron supplementation or treatment

Following the Test

After Iron Testing, healthcare providers discuss the results with individuals and recommend appropriate interventions based on the test findings. Treatment options may include iron supplementation, dietary changes, and addressing the underlying cause of iron imbalance.
