Wait time was unexpectedly long! ย I was there for one hour and 15 mins for an EKG the order was sent the day before so that was not the problem. Was called 15 mins after my scheduled appt and there was only one other person in the waiting room when I was called. Also when I arrived there was one person ahead of me.ย  Provider was very good and staff friendly. The assistant who who performed the EKG was great knowledge about the procedure. After the procedure I had a wait again another 15 mins.

Juan, the medical assistant was good and receptive. The PA who saw me was also good but I just didn't agree with her recommendations. She was gracious to accept my opinion and she maintained her professionalism despite my disagreement. She did tell me that she was putting me on dexamethasone but forgot to explain the dosage; and also antibiotic but I already know what to do with the antibiotic. I thought the prednisone was a little high--40 mg everyday for seven days. It may be a good dose but for me, it gives me quiver and crave for food that's the reason why I was hesitant to take it. She did offer me to be nebulizer but I said I'll do it at home.

Melanie went out of her way to accommodate my husband and me when we came in to get Covid tests. Due to our unforeseen scheduling error, we didn't have an appointment at that time, but she said we could wait in case she could fit us in between patients, even though they were fully booked. She was able to complete our tests quickly and courteously. We were extremely pleased with the care we received. Thanks, Melanie!

The online scheduling was easy with the time slot availability shown. The hour is great, open later than others in the area, avoided going to ER. I arrived & check-in was smooth & no wait. Aria looked over my wound & stitch up the cut, & the support staff was friendly & professional. I barely felt it during the process, & she periodically reminded me if too painful, she can numb more. Great facility!

After visiting Carbon about 10 days ago for an ear canal that was clogged with wax, my symptoms returned (ear pain, moist discharge from the ear canal.) So, unable to get an appointment with my PCP, I scheduled an appointment at Carbon. This time a different doctor saw me. As soon as she entered the room and asked me what was going on and learned that I had been using carbon oxide drops to try and re-clear my ear, she berated me and told me that I should not do that. She berated me over and over, like I was a stupid person, which put me off guard and had the effect of shutting me up. Then she looked in my ears and pronounced me to be healthyโ€ฆ nothing wrong. It felt like she wanted to be done with me. I told her that I had pain in my ear (to which she interrupted โ€œtake Advilโ€) and that every morning I woke up with a moist and slightly not nice smelling moist discharge coming from my ear. I asked if this is something that could be solved with antibiotics or steroids. She said she could give me prednisone โ€œif I wantedโ€ as if I would be the one to make the prescribing decision. Then I told her about the discharge and she said that she could give me some antibiotic drops, and that I should take Guifenesen. The doctor made very little effort to understand my issue and symptoms, and she had a pretty awful bedside manner. I would not want to see this doctor again. I left having zero sense of resolution, and zero confidence in the treatment plan she gave me. I guess I will try to see my PCP or go to an ENT. This was an awful waste of time and money. She prescribed antibiotic ear drops, and did not prescribe the prednisone.

Great first experience. The only issue I have is that no one there answers the phone. We got a prescription sent to a pharmacy (our standard one) and the pharmacy didnโ€™t have it in stock. Because carbon health does not answer the phone, where I could have had them submit the scrip to a new pharmacy, I needed to be the middle person on a wild goose chase between the pharmacy that didnโ€™t have the medication and one that did. This is a very stressful position to be in as a parent with a very sick kid who desperately needs medicine. Other than that one component, I was happy with the experience. I reflected my disappointment under โ€œstaff friendlinessโ€, as I wasnโ€™t sure where else to put it. Staff wasnโ€™t unfriendly, they just didnโ€™t answer the phone.

My husband & I tested positive for COVID this AM. We both were able to very conveniently make online appointments for medical evaluations within 30 minutes of our requests. The UC Village-Albany Urgent Care clinic is modern and attractive with highly efficient, very welcoming, friendly, professional & personable administrative and medical staffs. All of the medical personnel have very kind and empathetic bedside manners and listened very well to (and heard!) and were responsive to our medical concerns and questions. We both were in and out of our appointments within 30 minutes. We are very appreciative and truly grateful to have your clinic so conveniently located near our home. Please keep up the great work!

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

Anyone who believes they may have been exposed to the hepatitis virus should get tested, especially those who fall into high-risk categories. This includes individuals who have used injectable drugs, have had unprotected sex with multiple partners, or have been in close contact with someone diagnosed with hepatitis. It's also recommended for healthcare workers, people with chronic liver disease, and those traveling to regions with high rates of hepatitis.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is vital, as it allows for early detection and treatment, minimizing the risk of severe liver damage. According to the CDC, chronic hepatitis can lead to liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, and even death if left untreated. Early detection can also help prevent the spread of the virus to others.

Hepatitis testing options in El Cerrito, CA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

Urgent care and walk-in clinics provide convenient and accessible hepatitis testing services. Carbon Health in Albany, CA, and Instant Urgent Care in Berkeley, CA, are highly rated clinics that offer hepatitis testing. Appointments can be booked for the same day or next day through Solvโ€™s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers are another excellent option for hepatitis testing. They can provide comprehensive care and follow-up treatment if necessary.

Free STD testing and community health centers

Community health centers and free STD testing clinics are also available in El Cerrito, providing affordable testing options for those without insurance or with limited financial resources.

At-home testing

At-home testing kits are another option for those who prefer privacy and convenience. These kits can be ordered online, used at home, and then sent back to a lab for analysis.

Prevalence of hepatitis in El Cerrito

The prevalence of hepatitis in El Cerrito is comparable to the national average, with a slight increase in recent years. This trend mirrors the overall increase in hepatitis cases across the United States, according to the CDC. It's essential to note that El Cerrito's proximity to larger cities like Berkeley and Richmond could contribute to these numbers due to higher population density and increased risk factors.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in El Cerrito

Risk factors for hepatitis in El Cerrito include unprotected sex, drug use, and close contact with someone who has the virus. Other factors that could contribute to the prevalence of hepatitis in El Cerrito include the city's proximity to larger urban areas and the presence of high-risk groups within the community.

Other STDs in El Cerrito

In addition to hepatitis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis are also prevalent in El Cerrito. As with hepatitis, these STDs are more common in larger cities and areas with high-risk populations. Regular testing for these STDs is recommended for those in high-risk groups.
