My visit today was really good. I was pleasantly surprised to see an opening for today. Of course I took it, the wait time wasn’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.

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, often caused by a viral infection. There are several types of hepatitis, with Hepatitis B and C being the most common sexually transmitted forms. According to the CDC, those who should consider getting tested for hepatitis include individuals who have engaged in unprotected sex, shared needles, or have a history of liver disease. It's also recommended for those who have been in close contact with someone diagnosed with hepatitis, or if you were born between 1945 and 1965, as this age group has a higher incidence of Hepatitis C.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial as it can lead to serious health complications if left untreated, including liver damage, liver cancer, and even death. Early detection and treatment can prevent these outcomes and lead to a healthier life. Moreover, knowing your hepatitis status can help prevent the spread of the disease to others.
