My husband had been in a few days earlier tested negative for Flu, Covid, and RSV but chest x-ray showed a little pneumonia. I started coughing Thursday night so I went straight in on Friday hoping to head it off at the pass but the doctor ran no test, said she didn’t hear wheezing even though I was and every the xray tech heard it. She gave me some cough pills and sent me on my way. I have continued to deteriorate now having sore throat and on and off spiking a low fever. Not impressed with the care I received. The PA my husband had was far more attentive. Update: The head doctor called me personally because he found this unacceptable and had me go back in for testing. I tested positive for Influenza A so I really appreciated his due diligence to get me answers so I have adjusted my overall score to reflect his efforts. Thank you Dr. Shital-Hiten Upadhyay.

Had been fighting an upper respiratory infection for a week and was not getting better. Was dreading having to go to the Urgent Care but this experience was so different! Was in & out fast, staff were all incredibly nice and helpful, the check in was fast and the facility was clean. Hope to not need to go again but if I do would not hesitate to go here again.

Went in for a lingering cough as a walk-in. I anticipated a long wait . However the wait time from registration, to call to the back , to the doctor seeing me was effortless and quick. All staff were very warm and personable.

This was my first time there. I’m a veteran and most of the time have a hard time with walk in clinics. However, Chole at the front desk made things so much easier. The MA who did my vitals was very understanding and the NP I seen was great. From the time I walked in until I left, they all were great!!!

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.
