I was in and out quickly. Staff was great. Problems not resolved. I know arthritis pain. Have had it for years what's going on with me is different. Was told if my thumbs were outta joint they would be bruising. My daughter's elbow was popped outta joint two times with no bruising. So I am dealing with unbearable pain. Will not go back to this facility. My health is not a joke. Do not recommend Colleen Malone. Got x-rays if my hands somewhere else, my thumbs were separated from my hands. So her diagnosis was not right due to just guessing and not taking my injury seriously 😒.

I got a dot physical. I did not understand the paper work that dmv asked for. I called back and the person who answered the phone took the time to look up what I needed. He told me what I needed to do.

I have been having issues with extreme dizziness, earache, headaches, nausea, I finally decided to go to Dr to see what was going on and I was informed that I had inner ear. The staff was very friendly and efficient and the nurse and Dr. did an awesome job getting my ear irrigated enough to finally see there was no damage to my ear drum. Thank you all👍

The only reason I didn’t give wait time a 5 star review is because I had scheduled my appointment and did my registration online and I still had to wait about 30 minutes. I expected to wait about 15 minutes but not 30. I probably could have just walked in and waited the same amount of time because I was the only one in the waiting room when I got there. However, on the plus side, I was still called back and attended to promptly before the others who checked in after me were called back.

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.
