There was no wait, but I had to use an app to check in, which took about 10 minutes. ย So, why are there employees at the front desk, if Iโ€™m doing their job for them? ย I could see the benefit of this if there were 5 people waiting to check inโ€ฆ but they couldnโ€™t do my intake when I was literally the only person in the waiting room? I was pulled into the room pretty quickly, but then waiting in the exam room for about 1/2 hour. ย The doctor was friendly and listened to my list of symptoms and then examined me. ย  Besides the check in process and wait to be seen by the doctor , everything was positive.

Front desk staff was rude and dismissive, especially the middle aged woman with shoulder length blondish, gray hair. Not just to me but another patient waiting as well. Basically wouldn't help with insurance, by making the call for precertification to confirm emergency. I paid for the visit, but she still classified it as an "office visit" when I was in with a 5 year old presenting with blood in her urine. She is a disservice to your facility. Wanted to do as little as possible. The doctor was great!!

Came in thinking I had strep throat. I have covid. No meds given or input as to current guidelines for quarantining, etc.--but I must admit I forgot to ask until I got home. Perhaps a hangout/some paperwork would have been nice

I went through the walk in. It was very easy. I was in and out of there within maybe 20 minutes. I was ordered medication and hopefully Iโ€™ll be feeling much better in a couple of days! I would definitely recommend their services.

About TIBC Testing

Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) Testing is a diagnostic test that measures the capacity of proteins in the blood to bind and transport iron. TIBC is used in conjunction with other iron tests to assess iron status and identify conditions like iron deficiency anemia or iron overload.

Who Should Get Tested

Residents of Bridgeport, Connecticut, who are suspected to have iron-related disorders, such as iron deficiency anemia or hereditary hemochromatosis, may benefit from TIBC Testing. Additionally, individuals with symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and pale skin may require testing.

Test Methods for TIBC

TIBC Testing is performed using a blood sample. It is often part of a panel that includes serum iron, transferrin, and ferritin measurements.

Interpreting the Results

The interpretation of TIBC Testing results involves analyzing the capacity of iron-binding proteins in the blood. Abnormalities in TIBC levels, along with other iron test results, may indicate iron deficiency or iron overload.

Importance of TIBC Testing

  • Assessing iron metabolism and transport in the body
  • Differentiating between iron deficiency anemia and iron overload conditions
  • Monitoring the response to iron treatment or other interventions

Following the Test

After TIBC Testing, healthcare providers discuss the results with individuals and recommend appropriate interventions based on the test findings. Treatment options may include iron supplementation, dietary changes, and further evaluation for underlying conditions affecting iron status.
