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.

During your visit, your doctor or the TB test provider will measure and check the bump to see if you have TB.

I was able to choose a Quest lab location and schedule an appointment. Check in was easy, and I only needed to provide my name and DOB. They were able to locate my order in their system. They were already aware that my labs were paid for prior to the appointment. I had my labs done on a Wednesday, and I received my results by Saturday. Great experience.

I came in one day without an appoint and waited two hours as a walk-in before I had to leave without being tested. I made an appointment through Quest Lab Testing for the next day, showed up on time, got tested easily and was on my way in 15-20 minutes. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Med Fast is a great medical clinic. It is a small office and I have been going there since Dr. Mikrut opened it 20 years ago. They can't do everything and they don't pretend to be able to like others. It's a lot like going to an old-fashioned doctor who treats the whole person. On the other hand, if you are having a heart attack or stroke, they will send you directly to a hospital. With Covid, they have gone to making appointments, so the wait time to see a doctor is longer, often the next day.
