I woke up on a Saturday feeling horrible. I checked the website for scheduling, but noticed they accepted walk ins. I arrived, and was immediately greeted and checked in. I barely waited 5 minutes before I saw a Dr! She was very kind, professional, and  attentive as I asked questions. She called a prescription to my local pharmacy, and it was ready when I got there. I Highly recommend AFC Urgent Care Fuquay if you ever need medical attention!

I had a sore ear yesterday morning and a headache.  I easily scheduled an appointment for the same morning.  The staff was friendly, competent, courteous.  The doctor was great.  She answered all my questions and was very gentle.  I left with a prescription for an ear infection and instructions to return if there was no improvement.  I would definitely recommend them to anyone with a medical problem that needed to be looked at quickly.

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.
