I absolutely abhor going to any kind of doctor or clinic, but this visit was as nice as it could have been- so a review seems necessary. Both ladies behind the counter were very friendly & on point with me as well as with the other patients who were coming & going. The doctor I saw was fantastic. Her bedside manner was kind, & her questions were thorough. She balanced a comforting sense of humor with confident professionalism. Unfortunately I can't remember her name... she was reasonably tall, if that helps :)

Had a strong cold, worried it might be pneumonia, it wasn’t, thankfully but I was immediately seen by the doctor and was immediately rxed and medicated. Very glad I went there! And strongly recommend it!

I had a low grade fever and fatigue over the weekend and walked in on Monday. Waited maybe 5 minutes. Staff was attentive, ran some tests, did a chest x-ray and concluded I had some viral infection. Wrote me an Rx for conjunctivitis, but just told me to rest and drink plenty of fluids, take Ibuprofen every 4 hours, which I have been doing. As of Wednesday morning I still have the chills and fever, so I wish they would have given me a Z pack. I will see how today goes but may need to come back.

Everyone was wonderful on my visit.  The only negative thing I would say was the check in process.  You enter your information on an iPad then a paper form then you get a text message to enter the same information.  And I was a repeat customer.

I hate doctors!!!  But this was the best experience ever.  Major infection from poison ivy and an insane and painful full body rash.  The staff and Dr. were great and exceeded my expectations.  I got information and the meds needed to recover (soon hopefully). Also picked up some referrals. A big thank you to this Doc and his crew.  Five Stars!

Scheduling was great. The PA I saw is amazing she is always so helpful. The wait time was ridiculous tho. Waited over an hour for my appointment and to be seen. But after that was given time with the staff.

About Hepatitis test

Who should get tested for hepatitis?

Hepatitis, a liver disease caused by various viruses, can affect anyone but certain individuals are at a higher risk. Those who should consider getting tested for hepatitis include individuals who have been exposed to the virus, people who have traveled to countries with high rates of hepatitis, drug users (both injecting and non-injecting), men who have sex with men, and individuals with HIV. Additionally, anyone who has had unprotected sex, especially with multiple partners, or those who have had a blood transfusion or organ transplant before 1992 should also consider getting tested.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for hepatitis is crucial as it allows for early detection and treatment, preventing further liver damage. According to the CDC, many people with hepatitis do not experience symptoms until the disease has progressed, making testing even more important. Early detection can also help prevent the spread of the virus to others.

Hepatitis testing options in Pottstown, PA:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

There are several urgent care and walk-in clinics in and around Pottstown, PA that offer hepatitis testing. For instance, Carbon Health Urgent Care in Montgomeryville, PA, is highly rated and known for its short wait times and friendly staff. You can book same-day and next-day appointments at this location through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers are another reliable option for hepatitis testing. If you have a long-term relationship with a provider, this can be a comfortable and convenient option.

Free STD testing and community health centers

There are also free STD testing and community health centers in the area that provide hepatitis testing. These centers are an excellent resource for those who may not have insurance or who prefer a more community-focused approach to healthcare.

At-home testing

For those who prefer privacy or cannot travel to a clinic, at-home testing kits are available. These kits can be ordered online, used in the privacy of your own home, and then sent back to a lab for analysis.

Prevalence of hepatitis in Pottstown

While specific data for Pottstown is not readily available, Chester County, where Pottstown is located, has seen a steady increase in hepatitis cases over the past few years. This trend mirrors the national trend, according to the CDC. It's important to note that these numbers may not reflect the actual number of cases, as many people with hepatitis do not know they have it.

Risk factors related to hepatitis in Pottstown

Risk factors for hepatitis in Pottstown are similar to those in other parts of the country. These include unprotected sex, drug use, travel to high-risk countries, and exposure to infected blood or body fluids.

Other STDs in Pottstown

In addition to hepatitis, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, and syphilis are also prevalent in Pottstown. It's important to get tested for these diseases as well, as they often occur together. Testing locations such as Carbon Health Urgent Care in Montgomeryville, PA, offer comprehensive STD testing.
