My husband & I tested positive for COVID this AM. We both were able to very conveniently make online appointments for medical evaluations within 30 minutes of our requests. The UC Village-Albany Urgent Care clinic is modern and attractive with highly efficient, very welcoming, friendly, professional & personable administrative and medical staffs. All of the medical personnel have very kind and empathetic bedside manners and listened very well to (and heard!) and were responsive to our medical concerns and questions. We both were in and out of our appointments within 30 minutes. We are very appreciative and truly grateful to have your clinic so conveniently located near our home. Please keep up the great work!

I was able to schedule a 9:00 appointment during the early morning hours.  We had to wait for two other people to check in.  Given the increased volume of patients and people without appointments, we were taken back very quickly.   The doctor was very kind and thorough in her examination.  Her diagnosis was accurate.  I would recommend this provider with respect to the doctor we saw.  We had been to the urgent care the night before, right before they closed and that doctor was not thorough.  He didn’t look at my son’s nose or throat or check his breathing.

I made my appointment online and was able to get an appointment for two hours later. Once there, I had to wait 45 minutes to be seen, but luckily my schedule allowed for the wait. Perhaps the Staff needed more time with other patients. I received the care I needed, and I recommend this Clinic.

Great first experience. The only issue I have is that no one there answers the phone. We got a prescription sent to a pharmacy (our standard one) and the pharmacy didn’t have it in stock. Because carbon health does not answer the phone, where I could have had them submit the scrip to a new pharmacy, I needed to be the middle person on a wild goose chase between the pharmacy that didn’t have the medication and one that did. This is a very stressful position to be in as a parent with a very sick kid who desperately needs medicine. Other than that one component, I was happy with the experience. I reflected my disappointment under “staff friendliness”, as I wasn’t sure where else to put it. Staff wasn’t unfriendly, they just didn’t answer the phone.

Overall I was very happy and satisfied with my visit. Scheduling, check in and check out was seamless. I just waited for a bit because I probably came in at a time when they were so busy. Everyone was friendly and the place was clean and accessible. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends. Thanks and keep it up. 😇

Melanie went out of her way to accommodate my husband and me when we came in to get Covid tests. Due to our unforeseen scheduling error, we didn't have an appointment at that time, but she said we could wait in case she could fit us in between patients, even though they were fully booked. She was able to complete our tests quickly and courteously. We were extremely pleased with the care we received. Thanks, Melanie!

Wait time was good, got in at 1:40pm for my 1:30pm appointment. Staff was friendly and explained things to me. I did kind of get the impression that they were tired of me because I was trying to ask clarifying questions to make sure that later on I will not be thinking about the questions I was afraid to ask :P. It’s very easy for me to just accept what I’m told, and not ask anything, but I’m trying to learn to advocate for myself because it seems like that’s what is needed in healthcare. But I could tell they were definitely getting tired of me asking my dumb questions and just repeating answers they already gave because I was obviously didn’t hear it the first time. I probably need to work on my communication skills because I don’t feel like either of us felt like we were getting through to the other person. It felt like we both felt like we knew what the other person was saying and that they just weren’t willing to hear it.

San Francisco Vitamin D Tests

A vitamin D test can tell you if you're getting enough vitamin D or if you're low in the vitamin. Vitamin D is required for healthy bones and a strong immune system. Vitamin D deficiency may increase your risk of bone issues like fractures and osteoporosis.

Vitamin D may be found in a variety of foods and is also created by your body when you are exposed to sunshine. Vitamin D shortage can occur if you don't eat enough vitamin D-rich foods or if you don't get enough sun. Vitamin D deficiency can be caused by kidney disease, liver disease, and other illnesses.

A vitamin D test may be beneficial for those who are experiencing symptoms of vitamin D deficiency, such as bone weakness, softness, deformity, and fractures. People who are at risk for vitamin D deficiency may benefit from a vitamin D test. Obesity, a dark complexion, bone disorders like osteoporosis, and having had gastric bypass surgery are all significant vitamin D deficient risk factors (a type of weight loss surgery that prevents the body from fully absorbing nutrients).

Vitamin D levels are determined using a blood test. During this test, your healthcare provider will remove a little sample of blood from your arm using a tiny needle. Your blood sample will then be sent to a laboratory to be tested for vitamin D levels. A vitamin D test takes about five minutes to complete and does not necessitate any additional preparation.

If your tests show you're deficient in vitamin D, your doctor will work with you to figure out why your levels are low and, if necessary, devise a treatment plan to increase your vitamin D intake. This could involve adding more vitamin D-rich items to your diet, taking vitamin D supplements, spending more time in the sun, or taking a vitamin D supplement.

Vitamin D Test FAQs

  • How much does a vitamin D test cost in San Francisco?

    A multitude of factors influence the price of a vitamin D test, including testing provider rates, geographic location, and whether or not your health insurance plan covers this test. Your health plan may cover vitamin D testing if your doctor thinks it medically necessary; but, at-home vitamin D tests may not be covered. Inquire with the vitamin D testing firm about the costs of a vitamin D test.

  • Does insurance cover vitamin D testing in San Francisco?

    Your health insurance plan may cover the cost of vitamin D testing if your doctor believes that it is medically necessary based on your symptoms and health condition. You should get a vitamin D test if you have symptoms of vitamin D deficiency or if you meet the risk factors for vitamin D deficiency. Contact your health insurance provider directly to learn more about your perks and coverage.

  • Who should get a vitamin D test in San Francisco?

    A vitamin D test can determine whether you're getting enough vitamin D to stay healthy and protect yourself from illness and disease. A vitamin D test is also recommended for those who have vitamin D insufficiency symptoms or who have risk factors for vitamin D deficiency, such as osteoporosis, obesity, or a dark complexion.

  • How do they test for vitamin D deficiency in San Francisco?

    A blood test for vitamin D deficiency can be performed to identify vitamin D deficiency. Vitamins D2 and D3 in the bloodstream convert to 25-hydroxy vitamin D, which can be measured with a vitamin D test to check whether you're deficient. For a vitamin D blood test, a tiny needle is used to extract a little sample of blood from a vein in your arm. Your sample is then examined in a lab to check if you are vitamin D deficient.

  • How do I read vitamin D test results?

    The unit of measurement for vitamin D is nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). A normal range is defined as any figure between 20 and 40 ng/mL, while other medical experts consider between 30 and 50 ng/mL is typical. With the help of your doctor or the vitamin D test provider, you can usually understand the results of your vitamin D test.

  • What does low vitamin D mean?

    Low vitamin D levels could indicate a vitamin D deficiency in your diet or insufficient sun exposure for your body to manufacture vitamin D. Low vitamin D levels could also indicate that your body's ability to absorb vitamin D is being impeded by a medical condition. Your doctor can assist you in identifying and treating the underlying causes of low vitamin D levels.

  • How long does it take to get vitamin D test results in San Francisco?

    A vitamin D test might take anywhere from a few days to a week to get results. Test results may be delayed due to factors such as lab productivity and staffing, as well as the time it takes for your doctor to advise you of your results. Your doctor can give you a more accurate time frame for receiving your test results.

  • Where should I get a vitamin D test in San Francisco?

    Vitamin D tests are available from a variety of sources, including primary care physicians, urgent care clinics, walk-in laboratories, hospitals, and wellness centers. At-home vitamin D tests are also available from a variety of retailers. Find the top vitamin D testing services in your region with Solv.

  • How accurate are vitamin D tests?

    The 25-hydroxy vitamin D test is the most precise method for determining vitamin D levels in your body right now. Some drugs, such as phenobarbital, isoniazid, and corticosteroids, have been shown to affect the accuracy of vitamin D assays. Your doctor may urge you to cease taking any medications that have been found to affect vitamin D test results for a few days before your test.
