I went in with flu like symptoms. I was curious if I had Covid but did not get tested.  I could have spoke up for a desire for a test, but my preference would have been that the test would be automatically given.

Great first experience. The only issue I have is that no one there answers the phone. We got a prescription sent to a pharmacy (our standard one) and the pharmacy didn’t have it in stock. Because carbon health does not answer the phone, where I could have had them submit the scrip to a new pharmacy, I needed to be the middle person on a wild goose chase between the pharmacy that didn’t have the medication and one that did. This is a very stressful position to be in as a parent with a very sick kid who desperately needs medicine. Other than that one component, I was happy with the experience. I reflected my disappointment under “staff friendliness”, as I wasn’t sure where else to put it. Staff wasn’t unfriendly, they just didn’t answer the phone.

Wait time was unexpectedly long!  I was there for one hour and 15 mins for an EKG the order was sent the day before so that was not the problem. Was called 15 mins after my scheduled appt and there was only one other person in the waiting room when I was called. Also when I arrived there was one person ahead of me.  Provider was very good and staff friendly. The assistant who who performed the EKG was great knowledge about the procedure. After the procedure I had a wait again another 15 mins.

After visiting Carbon about 10 days ago for an ear canal that was clogged with wax, my symptoms returned (ear pain, moist discharge from the ear canal.) So, unable to get an appointment with my PCP, I scheduled an appointment at Carbon. This time a different doctor saw me. As soon as she entered the room and asked me what was going on and learned that I had been using carbon oxide drops to try and re-clear my ear, she berated me and told me that I should not do that. She berated me over and over, like I was a stupid person, which put me off guard and had the effect of shutting me up. Then she looked in my ears and pronounced me to be healthy… nothing wrong. It felt like she wanted to be done with me. I told her that I had pain in my ear (to which she interrupted “take Advil”) and that every morning I woke up with a moist and slightly not nice smelling moist discharge coming from my ear. I asked if this is something that could be solved with antibiotics or steroids. She said she could give me prednisone “if I wanted” as if I would be the one to make the prescribing decision. Then I told her about the discharge and she said that she could give me some antibiotic drops, and that I should take Guifenesen. The doctor made very little effort to understand my issue and symptoms, and she had a pretty awful bedside manner. I would not want to see this doctor again. I left having zero sense of resolution, and zero confidence in the treatment plan she gave me. I guess I will try to see my PCP or go to an ENT. This was an awful waste of time and money. She prescribed antibiotic ear drops, and did not prescribe the prednisone.

My husband & I tested positive for COVID this AM. We both were able to very conveniently make online appointments for medical evaluations within 30 minutes of our requests. The UC Village-Albany Urgent Care clinic is modern and attractive with highly efficient, very welcoming, friendly, professional & personable administrative and medical staffs. All of the medical personnel have very kind and empathetic bedside manners and listened very well to (and heard!) and were responsive to our medical concerns and questions. We both were in and out of our appointments within 30 minutes. We are very appreciative and truly grateful to have your clinic so conveniently located near our home. Please keep up the great work!

Point Reyes Station Diagnostic Tests

A variety of diagnostic tests are used to diagnose, assess, and treat a variety of medical conditions. These tests can also be used to track the progression of an illness and determine whether or not treatments are working properly. Your doctor may order or perform one or more diagnostic tests to confirm or rule out specific health diseases if your symptoms are similar to those of other disorders.

There are currently more than 110 diagnostic tests and methods accessible for testing in a variety of healthcare settings. Each test is unique, with its own set of specifications. Some tests, for example, require you to fast for many hours or temporarily stop taking certain medications, while others do not. For

Diagnostic tests are available that are both invasive and non-invasive. Invasive testing typically involves puncturing the skin or body with injections, surgery, or other methods. Biopsies, endoscopies, and cryotherapy are examples of invasive diagnostic tests. Non-invasive treatments avoid penetrating or puncturing the body and are linked to a lower risk of problems and negative effects. Eye exams, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and chest X-rays are examples of non-invasive diagnostic testing procedures.

Your doctor or the diagnostic testing provider can give you with more information on what to expect. This contains information on how to prepare for the test, how the test works, how long it lasts, and what to expect throughout the test.

Diagnostic Test FAQs

  • How much does a diagnostic test cost in Point Reyes Station?

    The cost of a diagnostic test is governed by a variety of factors, including the type of test, the rate charged by the testing provider, and the geographic region. Many health insurance policies cover the expense of diagnostic testing in part or in full. Getting an estimate directly from the testing firm is the simplest way to find out how much a diagnostic test will cost.

  • Does insurance cover diagnostic testing?

    Yes, many health insurance plans will cover the price of diagnostic testing, particularly if your doctor believes the tests are medically necessary based on your symptoms or health condition. Contact your health insurance provider to learn more about your diagnostic testing coverage and perks. Some diagnostic test providers may also validate your insurance benefits for you as a service.

  • What is a diagnostic test?

    A diagnostic test is a procedure or test used by your doctor to aid in the diagnosis of an illness, disease, or medical condition. Colonoscopy, mammography, biopsy, computed tomography (CT) scan, and endoscopy are just a handful of the various diagnostic procedures that your doctor may use to find or rule out certain health issues. Diagnostic tests can also be used to track the progression of a disease and determine how effective specific treatments are.

  • What types of diagnostic tests are there in Point Reyes Station?

    There are now over 110 diagnostic tests available. These examinations can be invasive or non-invasive, and imaging can be included or excluded. Invasive procedures include puncturing the skin or entering the body by injections, surgery, or colonoscopy. Puncturing or entrance into the body is not required with non-invasive procedures. Non-invasive diagnostic tests include saliva testing, X-rays, and ultrasounds.

  • How long does diagnostic testing take in Point Reyes Station?

    Diagnostic testing might take anything from a few minutes to many days, depending on the type and nature of the test. A flu test, for example, can be performed with a tongue swab in one or two minutes, whereas some imaging tests may require two visits to the lab. Your doctor will be able to estimate the duration of your diagnostic test.

  • Where should I get diagnostic testing in Point Reyes Station?

    Diagnostic testing can be performed in a doctor's office, an urgent care clinic, a hospital, a drugstore, a pharmacy, or any other healthcare facility. Most likely, your doctor will refer you to a specialist or provider who specializes in the diagnostic testing you need. Solv can also help you locate the best diagnostic testing providers in your area.

  • How is diagnostic testing done in Point Reyes Station?

    Each diagnostic test is carried out differently depending on the nature of the process. A blood test may be used to diagnose diabetes, while mammography may be used to diagnose breast cancer. An interval of several hours may be required for some diagnostic examinations. Your doctor or diagnostic testing provider will describe the procedure for your test and what you should do to prepare.

  • How accurate are diagnostic tests in Point Reyes Station?

    Before being used to diagnose and treat patients in medical settings, many diagnostic tests are rigorously studied and tested for accuracy. Diagnostic testing, on the other hand, can occasionally provide false positives or negatives. As a result, if your results aren't correct or if your disease can't be identified properly solely on test results, your doctor may suggest more testing.

Some of these tests require a prescription from your doctor and the submission of your results to a laboratory for examination. You can receive some of the results through email. Consult your doctor to learn more about the accuracy and benefits of at-home diagnostic testing, as well as whether this service is ideal for you.
