So amazing these caring souls that work here! I came in last minute with my daughter and in the kerfuffle of illness and getting her there on time we forgot her ID. The appointment I had originally was at 6:30 and they close at 7. We didn’t get back there with the ID until 6:50. The angel at the front desk called me to see if I was still coming! They helped us thoroughly, thoughtfully and with incredible kindness. Thank you immensely.

The PA was kind and non alarming!  I didn’t feel that way with the previous visit 2 days before! She explained things carefully, so I understood what I was dealing with and prescribed the correct medication! The previous PA told me I would get a call with the results of my urine  test, but I never got that call and my antibiotics needed to be changed. I developed a fever and came in again! Not sure why I never got that call???

Pain from Sciatica had become unbearable. I wasn't able to schedule an appointment with my doctor, but I went online to Carbon Health's website and had no trouble booking an appointment. I was seen on time, the facility was clean & comfortable, the check-in process was hassle free, and the young lady at the front desk was polite and professional. Dr. Upton was a tremendous help to me. In addition to being able to prescribe the right medication for my condition, she advised me regarding lifestyle changes that might be beneficial. Above all - SHE LISTENED to me! I would certainly recommend this location to my friends and neighbors.

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), anyone who has been exposed to the hepatitis virus, either through sexual contact, sharing needles, or from an infected mother to her baby during childbirth, should get tested. This includes individuals who have had unprotected sex, those who have used intravenous drugs, and healthcare or public safety workers who have been exposed to blood on the job. Additionally, all pregnant women should be tested for hepatitis B, as the virus can be passed to the baby during childbirth.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial as it can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. According to the CDC, chronic hepatitis can cause cirrhosis, liver cancer, and even death. Early detection through testing allows for immediate treatment, which can slow the progression of the disease, prevent serious complications, and improve quality of life. Furthermore, knowing your hepatitis status can help prevent the spread of the virus to others.

Hepatitis testing options in Laguna Beach, CA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

Urgent care and walk-in clinics offer quick and convenient hepatitis testing services. Carbon Health in Irvine, CA, and A+ Urgent Care in Lake Elsinore, CA, are two highly-rated clinics with short wait times. Both clinics offer same-day and next-day appointments, which can be booked through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers can also conduct hepatitis testing. If you have a regular doctor in Laguna Beach, they can order a hepatitis test during a routine check-up. This is a good option for those who prefer to discuss their health concerns in a familiar environment.

Free STD testing and community health centers

Free STD testing and community health centers provide essential healthcare services, including hepatitis testing, to those who may not have insurance or the means to pay. Rume Health in Huntington Beach, CA, is a community health center that offers hepatitis testing.

At-home testing

At-home testing kits provide a private and convenient way to test for hepatitis. These kits can be ordered online, used at home, and then sent back to a lab for analysis. Results are typically available within a few days.

Prevalence of hepatitis in Laguna Beach

While specific data for Laguna Beach is not readily available, Orange County, where Laguna Beach is located, has seen a steady increase in hepatitis cases over the years, according to the CDC. This trend mirrors the national increase in hepatitis cases. Comparatively, nearby counties such as San Diego County and Los Angeles County have also reported similar increases in hepatitis cases.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in Laguna Beach

Risk factors for hepatitis in Laguna Beach are similar to those in other parts of the country. These include unprotected sex, intravenous drug use, and occupational exposure to blood. Additionally, those who have traveled to or are from regions with high rates of hepatitis, such as Asia and Africa, are at a higher risk.

Other STDs in Laguna Beach

In addition to hepatitis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis are also present in Laguna Beach. Similar to hepatitis, these STDs have seen a steady increase in cases over the years. It's important to note that getting tested for one STD does not mean you are tested for all, and regular testing for all STDs is recommended for those at risk.
