Front desk staff was rude and dismissive, especially the middle aged woman with shoulder length blondish, gray hair. Not just to me but another patient waiting as well. Basically wouldn't help with insurance, by making the call for precertification to confirm emergency. I paid for the visit, but she still classified it as an "office visit" when I was in with a 5 year old presenting with blood in her urine. She is a disservice to your facility. Wanted to do as little as possible. The doctor was great!!

I am from out of town and went to docs for an ongoing issue with my leg. Staff and the doctor were kind and reassuring. I was very happy with the visit and we’ll keep them in mind when I come to visit Connecticut.

This was just a follow up visit that I probably could have canceled because the care and medication that was prescribed did the job. But I thought it would be best to go and let the doctor know and make sure She agreed with my assessment

About TIBC Testing

Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) Testing is a diagnostic test that measures the capacity of proteins in the blood to bind and transport iron. TIBC is used in conjunction with other iron tests to assess iron status and identify conditions like iron deficiency anemia or iron overload.

Who Should Get Tested

Residents of Westport, Connecticut, who are suspected to have iron-related disorders, such as iron deficiency anemia or hereditary hemochromatosis, may benefit from TIBC Testing. Additionally, individuals with symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and pale skin may require testing.

Test Methods for TIBC

TIBC Testing is performed using a blood sample. It is often part of a panel that includes serum iron, transferrin, and ferritin measurements.

Interpreting the Results

Importance of TIBC Testing

  • Assessing iron metabolism and transport in the body
  • Differentiating between iron deficiency anemia and iron overload conditions
  • Monitoring the response to iron treatment or other interventions

Following the Test

After TIBC Testing, healthcare providers discuss the results with individuals and recommend appropriate interventions based on the test findings. Treatment options may include iron supplementation, dietary changes, and further evaluation for underlying conditions affecting iron status.
