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,  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.

My foot was swollen due to a fracture - over 5 weeks now, not everything documented 1st by my PCP, Urgent Care and the ER. Instead of an x-ray, I was referred to the ER. I was finally correctly diagnosed on yesterday by a "floating" physician.

Woke up with sinus pressure. I was able to be seen in less than 30 min.  The staff was amazing, Nataly at the front desk, Mariana at the back office-who by the way gives great injections, and last but not least the NP Abraham.  Would recommend this Urgent Care!!

My son had a fever. History of ear infections. I was not confident in the evaluation of the practitioner. Was not clear about diagnosing an ear infection. Stated no redness was noted. Ended up in the ER the same night with a clear diagnosis of a R ear infection. Not sure if they are not used to evaluating young children.

Was able to book an appointment over the phone in under 2 minutes. My provider was a female doctor who I’ve seen in the past but I forgot her name:( She’s fantastic, both my mom and I absolutely LOVE her. Kind, patient, to the point and excellent bedside manners. I’m hoping I don’t get sick again but if I do, I know exactly who to go to!

I visited because I’m allergic to poison ivy, so I had rash all around both eye, every thing when well, my only issue was that the doctor had roll me that my medicine was going to be ready in no more than 1hr this was at 10:00am, I went to the pharmacy to pick up at 6:00pm and was told that my prescription was barely submitted 30 min ago.

Daughter with pink eye.  We were in and out in 15 minutes and picked up our prescription on the drive home at our local pharmacy.  The staff is the best….very thorough.  Recommend highly.  I relish the thought you can schedule a time and be in and out within 25 minutes unless tests are needed and need time for the results.  When you are sick you never want to have to sit to be seen.

Visiting from out if town, but did not have a difficult time booking an appt, showed up early and were good about getting me in sooner, but did have a few patients ahead of me already. Overall was in and out relatively quickly without a lot of hassle, which being out of town and state and having tricare as insurance tends to have complications, but was handled well by reception and the online sign in portal

About Folate Testing

Folate Testing, also known as folic acid or vitamin B9 testing, is a diagnostic test that measures the level of folate in the blood. Folate is an essential B-vitamin that plays a crucial role in cell division, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell production. Testing for folate levels helps identify deficiencies that can lead to various health issues.

Who Should Get Tested

Residents of Houston, Texas, with symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and pale skin may benefit from Folate Testing. Additionally, individuals with certain risk factors, such as poor dietary folate intake, malabsorption disorders, and pregnancy, may require testing.

Test Methods for Folate

Folate Testing is typically performed using a blood sample. The most common test is the serum folate test, which measures the level of folate in the blood. Another method is the red blood cell folate test, which assesses the folate levels inside red blood cells.

Interpreting the Results

The interpretation of Folate Testing results involves analyzing the level of folate in the blood. Low folate levels may indicate a deficiency that requires further evaluation and treatment.

Importance of Folate Testing

Folate Testing is important for:

  • Diagnosing folate deficiency
  • Assessing potential causes of anemia and other health issues
  • Guiding appropriate treatment, including folate supplementation

Following the Test

After Folate Testing, healthcare providers discuss the results with individuals and recommend appropriate interventions based on the test findings. Treatment options may include dietary changes, folate supplementation, or further investigation into the underlying cause of the deficiency.
