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.

Requested support for two issues, and they heard and documented it. I told the front desk and the check-in nurse about the two issues, but the doctor only addressed one issue. The time they allotted for support was very short for an 8 Am check-in. I assume 30 min but doctor time was around 10 min or less I’m going on an international trip in 7 days and wanted to ensure my primary illness was addressed. I asked questions, and the doctor said, “You have three minutes.” I didn't get all my questions addressed and had to ask the nurse, who felt it was important and asked. I don't know why they ignored my other issue when I addressed it twice to two staff. I will still go back and use their services.

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.
