I came in for suspected strep throat (my child had just tested positive and I was a few days ahead of her in terms of symptoms. The doctor noted my throat was acutely red and looked like typical strep. The rapid test did not gather enough of a sample and barely touched my throat / back of mouth and came back negative. I was sent home without a prescription for antibiotics and told to come back (for another copay of course) in a few days. I went elsewhere, tested positive same day, and was given a prescription. Additionally, your urgent care wanted to test me for other illnesses, despite my only exposure being strep, and my symptoms being exactly the symptoms of strep. I felt like a number and a copay, and was rushed out the door. I was really excited about this urgent care opening near my house, but now I’m reluctant to return.

Brought my granddaughter in for fever and so throat.  Staff was great !!  Friendly and caring.  Scheduling an appointment on line was very easy.  Our wait time to get into a room to be seen, in my opinion, was unsatisfactory.  We had an 11:00 appointment and never go into a room till almost 12:30.  Because of the staff I would use this urgent care again.  Hopefully the wait would be better.

Nice and capable staff for Covid 19 test. Very busy, so a bit of a wait for callbacks and when at site, and needed to call at site to get staff to come to car. Signed up for antibody test beforehand but not available when I got there. I am glad because the test is up to $200, depending on how much insurance covers. Call insurance first for sure.

Seen for respiratory issue- thorough work up by HE NP. She was very knowledgeable and attentive.  Told me to f/u with my pulmonologist if symptoms worsen and told me how to use the medication she sent to pharmacy.  Worth the 15 min drive and 10/10 care here.  Highly recommended urgent care.

About TIBC Testing

Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) Testing is a diagnostic test that measures the capacity of proteins in the blood to bind and transport iron. TIBC is used in conjunction with other iron tests to assess iron status and identify conditions like iron deficiency anemia or iron overload.

Who Should Get Tested

Residents of Townsend, Massachusetts, who are suspected to have iron-related disorders, such as iron deficiency anemia or hereditary hemochromatosis, may benefit from TIBC Testing. Additionally, individuals with symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and pale skin may require testing.

Test Methods for TIBC

TIBC Testing is performed using a blood sample. It is often part of a panel that includes serum iron, transferrin, and ferritin measurements.

Interpreting the Results

  • Differentiating between iron deficiency anemia and iron overload conditions
  • Monitoring the response to iron treatment or other interventions

Following the Test

After TIBC 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 further evaluation for underlying conditions affecting iron status.
