My visit today was really good. I was pleasantly surprised to see an opening for today. Of course I took it, the wait time wasn’t too bad considering that it is an urgent care and can sometimes take time. But it went by fast and I was able to make it in time to pick up my child. Thank you staff and provider for being on top of things.

I have come to this clinic multiple times and they have always treated me with respect. I always hear people saying that they don’t have a good attitude. But if I’m having a real urgent matter the last thing I’m worried but is the tone of someone’s voice. Plus they’ll for sure have you in within 2 hours or less and i don’t know about you but that huge plus for me. So in simple terms if you want fast, good doctors, and simple check-in without the fake over excited workers then come here.

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. Testing for folate levels helps identify deficiencies that can lead to various health issues.

Who Should Get Tested

Residents of Lakewood, California, with symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and pale skin may benefit from Folate Testing. Additionally, individuals with certain risk factors, such as poor dietary folate intake, malabsorption disorders, and pregnancy, may require testing.

Test Methods for Folate

Folate Testing is typically performed using a blood sample. The most common test is the serum folate test, which measures the level of folate in the blood. Another method is the red blood cell folate test, which assesses the folate levels inside red blood cells.

Interpreting the Results

  • Diagnosing folate deficiency
  • Assessing potential causes of anemia and other health issues
  • Guiding appropriate treatment, including folate supplementation

Following the Test

After Folate Testing, healthcare providers discuss the results with individuals and recommend appropriate interventions based on the test findings. Treatment options may include dietary changes, folate supplementation, or further investigation into the underlying cause of the deficiency.
