Amazing staff. I showed up when they were getting ready to leave, with a deep cut to the finger that needed stitching. They were very nice and considerate and reopened their triage and computers to get me checked in. Everyone was caring, friendly and efficient. It was a great experience.

After not feeling good the last few days I decided to go to Baptist Health urgent care. They asked if I wanted Covid and strep test and I came back positive for Covid. The staff and Dr were extremely nice and professional and didn’t rush through the appointment. I’ll definitely use this place again when the need arises.

About Folate Testing

Folate Testing, also known as folic acid or vitamin B9 testing, is a diagnostic test that measures the level of folate in the blood. Folate is an essential B-vitamin that plays a crucial role in cell division, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell production.
