What does a positive TB test look like?

When you take the TB skin test, a huge bump will appear on your arm at the injection site if you have had a TB infection. This hump, which may appear red and bloated, indicates that you have tuberculosis germs in your body. During your visit, your doctor or the TB test provider will measure and check the bump to see if you have TB.

Being a RN for 50 years I must say the Immediate Care office at Wick Plaza in Edison is outstanding! From the friendly & courteous front staff to the excellent care of Dr Christine Ibrahim. It’s so wonderful how Dr Ibrahim is so knowledgeable & caring. This is rare these days. In the recent past I’ve had doctors who are more concerned with the computer than the patient. I must say Dr Ibrahim is an asset to your corporation. I’ve worked in ICU & ran 2 huge practices in my experience. Dr. Ibrahim would definitely be a must hire in my opinion. Thank you for hiring suck a kind & competent Doctor!!!

I never leave reviews bc I'm a busy mama, but the CARE in this GET WELL Urgent Care location was beyond my expectations! Let me start from begging, we are here visiting NY from Miami with my two 10 y/o children. We came to Clifton to visit a restaurant next to the Clinic. After that we've stopped by a grocery store and my girl was playing on metal bars in front of the store and ripped, cut her leg open! Parents' worst nightmare! She needs Stiches, she's bleeding and crying in pain, my husband is fainting... I'm a nurse and I even got dizzy!!! Now, we're out of town, don't know area... and Get Well showed up on my map! 1 min away! We've walked in, the stuff, 3 of them jumped to the rescue ! They were professional , knowledgeable and compassionate... I felt like I hit the lottery! Mr. Mario took care of my husband and paperwork and an Angel, Beautiful being Sotiria Simeonidis PA-C took me and my Daughter in to the room for Stiches! She did amazing with consoling and educating and explaining the procedure to my crying and scared daughter Mila! Dr. Simeonidis used 'magic' and she performed a mini plastic surgery/stitching of the wound! I have no words! We are blessed beyond belief!!!!! Forever great full to the team at Get Well Urgent care! Maybe it’s named now A+.

I went there this past Saturday with sinus infection, congestion. I saw Dr.Oluwakemi Oreofe Ajibade and she was amazing. She did her due diligence read my file, noticed I have had this re-occurring issue ( this is third or fourth time this happened) suggested that I see specialist, provided a referral as well as medication. She tested me for flu, and Covid and just was spot on. She explained everything and was just wonderful.

An outstanding practice - in every way. Greeted when I walked in with an appointment. Helder Rebelo PA is an amazing practitioner. I've been in his care for over 20 some years. His staff is professional, courteous and wonderful. I would never think of going anywhere else when it comes to my primary health care. Am well into my 60's and no way would I go anywhere else for my first line of advice.
