Taylor was super awesome. She carries herself in a way that is the most perfect balance of professional and knowledgeable, while also feeling like a friend. She’s easily the best healthcare provider I’ve been to in AGES. On the ride home following my visit I was telling partner that she's the only provider I’ve genuinely been interested in for my PCP. He and I both will be getting care in the future! :)

I already was diagnosed with telemedicine but since I was already taking Zofran for my nausea they refused to prescribe me anything but ibuprofen and my symptoms got so bad that I was considering going to the emergency room, tonsils, throat, neck, jaw were all swollen, gums were bleeding, completely lost my appetite and my voice completely, I didn’t even make an Appointment. Didn’t even tell them what I had or how much pain I was in and was seen so quick, even being a new patient walk in!

I have been having issues with extreme dizziness, earache, headaches, nausea, I finally decided to go to Dr to see what was going on and I was informed that I had inner ear. The staff was very friendly and efficient and the nurse and Dr. did an awesome job getting my ear irrigated enough to finally see there was no damage to my ear drum. Thank you all👍

Today, I had to get my finger stitched up, and I must say, the process was incredibly painful—far more so than the original injury. Despite the unbearable pain, the doctor’s perseverance was commendable, and I appreciate their dedication. A special thanks to the medical staff for their efforts, and to myself for being an absolute beast of a man and enduring the ordeal with remarkable strength to hold back from causing him the same pain and the resilience to finish the job. Hats off to everyone involved!

The only reason I didn’t give wait time a 5 star review is because I had scheduled my appointment and did my registration online and I still had to wait about 30 minutes. I expected to wait about 15 minutes but not 30. I probably could have just walked in and waited the same amount of time because I was the only one in the waiting room when I got there. However, on the plus side, I was still called back and attended to promptly before the others who checked in after me were called back.

I got a dot physical. I did not understand the paper work that dmv asked for. I called back and the person who answered the phone took the time to look up what I needed. He told me what I needed to do.

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 South Pittsburg, 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.
