The nurse was friendly but not at all gentle in swabbing my nose for the pcr test. I let her know how much she was hurting me and I know it could have been done to the same effect a lot more gently. She also told me it would take 2-3 days to get pcr results. I was led to believe otherwise from your web site and the doctor who was very friendly came in after and said we should have it probably 24 hours.

I accidentally sliced off the side of finger and they helped staunch the bleeding and reassured me that no further care was needed. Much better then going to the emergency room. Great and friendly 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.
