My visit today was really good. I was pleasantly surprised to see an opening for today. Of course I took it, the wait time wasnโ€™t too bad considering that it is an urgent care and can sometimes take time. But it went by fast and I was able to make it in time to pick up my child. Thank you staff and provider for being on top of things.

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.

The PA was kind and non alarming!ย  I didnโ€™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 ย 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???

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 didnโ€™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.

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

Anyone can be at risk for hepatitis, a disease that inflames the liver. However, certain groups are more susceptible, including those who have been in close contact with someone infected with hepatitis, individuals who have traveled to regions with high hepatitis rates, people who inject drugs, and those with multiple sexual partners. The CDC also recommends testing for anyone born between 1945 and 1965, as this group has a higher prevalence of hepatitis C.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial to prevent the disease from progressing and causing severe damage to your liver. Early detection allows for prompt treatment, which can significantly reduce the risk of liver disease and cancer. Furthermore, knowing your hepatitis status can help prevent you from unknowingly transmitting the virus to others.

Hepatitis testing options in Lakewood, CA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

Urgent care and walk-in clinics provide convenient, same-day hepatitis testing. One such location is AME Medical Group in Lakewood, which has a high rating of 4.53 from 1282 reviews. You can book same-day and next-day testing appointments at AME Medical Group through Solvโ€™s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers are another reliable source for hepatitis testing. They can provide an initial test and guide you through any necessary follow-up testing or treatment.

Free STD testing and community health centers

Community health centers and free STD testing clinics are valuable resources for those who may not have insurance or who prefer a more affordable option. These centers provide confidential testing and often have counselors available to discuss results and treatment options.

At-home testing

At-home testing kits provide another convenient option for hepatitis testing. 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 Lakewood

Lakewood, located in Los Angeles County, has seen a steady number of hepatitis cases over the years. According to the CDC, Los Angeles County has a higher rate of hepatitis compared to other nearby counties such as San Diego County and Orange County. However, it's important to note that rates can vary between cities within the same county.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in Lakewood

Risk factors for hepatitis in Lakewood are similar to those in other cities. These include drug use, unprotected sex, travel to high-risk areas, and close contact with an infected person. Additionally, socioeconomic factors such as access to healthcare and education can also influence hepatitis rates.

Other STDs in Lakewood

In addition to hepatitis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis are also present in Lakewood. The rates of these STDs can fluctuate over time and can be influenced by similar risk factors as hepatitis. Regular testing for all STDs/STIs is recommended for those at risk.
