My visit at AFC League City today was amazing! I called ahead to see if they could do a specific procedure I needed, I was informed they could. I did my paperwork online, and by the time I arrived for my appointment my insurance had already been verified and I was called back instantly. My tech and PA were both very knowledgeable and helpful. The PA heard my concerns, and knew exactly what to do from there. Overall it was an amazing experience, and this will from now on be my primary urgent care if the need arises again. I would definitely recommend this place and provider to anyone!

The only negative thing I have to say is I didn't know about setting the appt. up online. The people are great and the care is awesome. When I can't see my personal physician Prime Urgent takes care of me. Thank you for being there for me.

I am a person who regularly receives B12 and vitamin shots as well as IV infusions. I had the worst experience this week when it was my first time visiting neumed modern urgent care. The doctor was very rude, did not have a gentle hand, after stabbing me three times to get my bulging vein, ย they realize Metal stand that holds the IV bag is broken and that it's the only one in the facility. I have to get up from previously laying down on the table and walk all the way through their facility in pain after being stuck three times because they have one stand to hold an IV bag, don't make the mistake of going here. My arm still hurts and I didn't feel much of a difference.

Traveling from several hours out of town and the ease of getting scheduled, the friendliness of staff, and quick diagnosis made this an incredibly easy process. It can be frustrating and scary to have one of your kiddos come down with something while traveling and UrgentCare For Kids eased alot of those worries. Extremely thankful for them and highly recommend!

I went in without a reservation and was there when the opened up at 8:00 am. They took me in and registered me quickly, I was seen very soon after, and there turned out to be no sign of strep. I was very competently helped. Alex was absolutely great. She was personable and very knowledgeable with great suggestions on strategy for curing my very bad cold, including the right medicines and strategies for taking them. I was so impressed that, if I have another need to see a doctor I would go there instead of trying to secure an appointment with my GP at Methodist Hospital. I am sure I will be back at some point and I would definitely make a reservation to go when Alex was there. I recommend this health care option.

I was shocked how easy it was to schedule an appointment on line and for my visit to truly occur at that time. The staff was great, especially the nurse practitioner, Brenda K. She was kind, attentive and proactive. She knew the right questions to ask which made the visit more efficient and easier on me. I felt horrible and she did not make me wait or have to talk a lot. I wish I could have her as my PCP!ย  I definitely recommend this facility to everyone.

They got me in right at 8:20 because I called a little bit before then and they were like yes come now and weโ€™re very very fast efficient and had all the facts information and ran all the tests now waiting on results, but the staff was all very efficient and caring, and the nurse practitioner or doctor was super informative about what was going on and her opinion on all of it as well as including all the medical facts and things I need to watch out for and make sure I had everything I needed to go home with until we get the results. Got rx for infection the next morning; doctor sent it in right away. Very thankful for them staying and taking me in as the last patient and helping me figure out whatโ€™s going on.

About Venom Testing

Venom Testing is a specialized diagnostic test designed to identify allergic reactions to venom from insect stings and bites. This test is essential for individuals who have experienced severe or life-threatening reactions to insect venom in the past, such as anaphylaxis. Venom Testing helps identify the specific insect venom responsible for the allergic reaction, enabling healthcare providers to develop personalized allergy management plans and prescribe life-saving treatments.

Who Should Get Tested

If you reside in Friendswood, Texas, and have a history of severe allergic reactions to insect stings or bites, Venom Testing is recommended. Additionally, individuals with a family history of insect venom allergies or those frequently exposed to insect-prone environments may also benefit from this testing to assess their risk of potential allergic reactions.

Tests Included in Venom Testing

Venom Testing typically involves:

  • Skin Prick Test: A small amount of insect venom is applied to the skin, and the skin is pricked to observe the body's reaction.
  • Intradermal Test: A small amount of diluted insect venom is injected under the skin to assess allergic response.
  • Blood Test (Specific IgE Test): Measures the levels of venom-specific antibodies in the blood.

Interpreting the Results

The interpretation of Venom Testing results involves assessing the skin's reaction to the venom and measuring the levels of venom-specific antibodies in the blood. Positive results indicate an allergic reaction to the specific insect venom tested.

Importance of Venom Testing

Venom Testing is important for:

  • Identifying specific insect venoms that trigger allergic reactions
  • Creating personalized allergy management plans
  • Prescribing life-saving treatments, such as epinephrine auto-injectors (EpiPens)
  • Informing individuals about potential risks and preventive measures

Following the Test

After Venom Testing, healthcare providers discuss the results with individuals and provide guidance on managing insect venom allergies. Those with positive results may be prescribed epinephrine auto-injectors and educated on recognizing and responding to severe allergic reactions.

Venom Testing empowers individuals in Friendswood, Texas, with the knowledge and tools to manage their insect venom allergies effectively and reduce the risk of life-threatening reactions.
