I booked on Wed evening for an early Thursday appointment for severe congestion, coughing, blocked sinuses. My appointment was for 8:15. I was inside at 8:05, in the exam room at 8:10, and on my way at 8:30. Everyone was super friendly, nice, and proficient. Would definitely recommend for Urgent Care needs near Clear Lake.

I sliced my finger and they got me in very quickly and took very good care of me. They cleaned up my wound and we figured out I needed stitches and Angel did them and she was absolutely amazing. She made sure I was comfortable and okay throughout the whole process. I 100% would recommend anyone to go see them.

Was able to book an appointment over the phone in under 2 minutes. My provider was a female doctor who I’ve seen in the past but I forgot her name:( She’s fantastic, both my mom and I absolutely LOVE her. Kind, patient, to the point and excellent bedside manners. I’m hoping I don’t get sick again but if I do, I know exactly who to go to!

Called the center as a walk in and was able to schedule an appointment right away! All staff were friendly from the desk receptionist to the nursing/doctor staff. I was treated fairly and with care and all of my concerns were addressed properly. Wait times may vary depending on the time and day as I went after work around 5:30pm, but everything was quick between the paperwork and the visit! I would definitely recommend this location and I will be returning in the future if need be!

I decided to see a medical professional after 3 days of sore throat, sinus pain, ear pain, and mucous. Making the appointment online was super easy. There was no wait at my appointment time. I was seen and tended to in a timely manner with a diagnosis and prescriptions sent to the pharmacy. I would highly recommend the HEB Rapid Clinic.

Misdiagnosed by NP. She was very unprofessional and inexperienced and did not listen to my concerns. I had to seek competent care elsewhere to receive a correct diagnosis and treatment.

Staff was friendly, attentive, painfully honest (shots to numb my finger for the procedure were painful just like the Dr. said they would be which I appreciated, not tolerating shots very well), and provided a quick solution for my problem.

It was easy to make an appointment. However I checked in on the Solv app and did not realize I also had to check in with the desk.  The girl at the desk saw me sitting there for more than 20 minutes and never said anything or acknowledged me. That was frustrating.  The doctor/nurse was very nice.

Texas H Pylori Tests

An H. pylori test can be used to determine whether you have a bacterial infection caused by H. pylori. If you have signs of a digestive disease, your doctor may request this test so that you can be treated as soon as possible to avoid major complications. This test can also tell you if your current H. pylori infection therapy is working properly.
A breath test, blood test, stool test, and biopsy are among the H. pylori testing available.

Your doctor will have you ingest a specific chemical that your body converts to carbon dioxide during the breath test. After that, you'll exhale into a gadget that can detect the presence of H. pylori. Your doctor may prescribe a

During the blood test, your doctor will take a small sample of blood from your arm with a tiny needle. After that, your blood will be checked for H. pylori antibodies to see if you've had an infection.

Your doctor will ask you to produce a sample of feces for the stool test, which can reveal if you have an H. pylori infection or whether it has been effectively treated.

Your doctor will take a small sample of tissue from the lining of your stomach during the biopsy test. Because this test is more invasive than other H. pylori testing, it is normally done in a hospital or clinic. Your doctor will provide anesthesia to you and place you on an operating table.

  • How accurate are H. pylori tests?

Based on the most recent scientific findings and evidence, your doctor can advise you on which testing procedure is the most accurate.
