During your visit, your doctor or the TB test provider will measure and check the bump to see if you have TB.

I am very pleased and grateful to have vybe in my community. 🙏👏 Thank you Shamara, Ashlee, Doctor Toni M. and Kris for the great care I received.

Had an accident and lip was split open, it was really bad. It was late they were about to close soon but they took me in put stitches in and then the same nurse called me 2-3 days later to make sure I was doing ok because she was thinking about me and wanted to make sure I was doing ok. That meant so much to me and now a year or so later you can barely see the scar. I don't think anyone could have done better. She said she did the stitches as she would've done it on her child. I really can't explain how great the care is there in words but there good people.
