Great discreet service, scheduled my visit and paid for for the test online not in Showed up at lab, checked in and was seen within minutes. Blood and urine were collected, test results came back quickly within 2 days because I did my test on a Friday. Quick, easy and cheap. Didn't have to wait for a visit to my PCP, and then get referral to lab.

I was able to choose a Labcorp 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 live directly across from their building. I have a primary doctor, but his hours are limited so I began going to urgent care for those minor little things that need addressing, but my doctor wasn’t available. Hands down the best office staff I’ve ever seen. Best nurses. Dr. Ollie.llI live directly across from their building. I have a primary doctor, but his hours are limited so I began going to urgent care for those minor little things that need addressing, but my doctor wasn’t available. Hands down the best office staff I’ve ever seen. Best nurses. Dr. Ali is someone who has never once rush me made me feel silly for dumb questions. It always leaves. Is there anything else you need. I completely trust him. He is not a man, nor have I ever asked frankly, to prescribe narcotics, so if that’s what you want this isn’t the place to go. I don’t want those things so I’m happy with them and God bless him for that there’s a female doctor. Unfortunately I don’t know her name. I’ve seen her twice and it was an emergency emergency and I don’t like her and I now call ahead to make sure she’s not there. It was a complete waste of time. Her diagnosis was completely wrong, and in the wrong direction I know that because the next day I went to the real emergency room and the day after that my physician, and I had a very serious problem that she didn’t even talk to me about. Plus she absolutely has the personality of cardboard so now I just call ahead and ask who’s there. Today Dr. Ali wasn’t in but I got to meet the actual owner and he was amazing. I would be remiss not to mention Champaign Pharmacy within the building at first they were convenient because they were there and I had a prescription and I had them fill it. I’m a senior, and I do take several medication‘s. I learned that they deliver them. Ali, the pharmacist and Sarah of the tech are two of the dearest people. I basically would call them my friends that I don’t go out and party with but if I partied I would actually take them with me lol if you need a good pharmacy people understand listen and help you take them and give them a try. As far as the doctors bedside manner, the owner who I met today, and Dr. Ali, we’re amazing. And thank probably to Dr. Ali’s frustration. I always make him hug me. I didn’t do that to the new guy today because he doesn’t know me lol the female let you know back off I’m untouchable nothing I would want to, but back off I’m gonna touchable let’s get this over with. I heard they were going to get a primary physician in there boy I hope she’s not that person. It would just bring the facility down honestly. I’m not trying to be mean I’m just telling the straight up truth. I never pre-book appointments I just walk in and sign in. There’s never a wait and if there is, it’s very short. Let’s be honest they are urgent care. They can’t do all the things that an emergency room can do. That’s why it’s called urgent care. It’s not because they’re not skilled or don’t want to do further things. It’s because they’re not set up at As a facility for that. These are great doctors helping people who need something now and if you don’t like these people I’m talking about there’s totally something wrong with you. No comment about the female doctor. The truth is, I’ve spent About 28 years working in the legal career field when doing that everybody tends to get the attitude over the years and get them before they get me. Frankly it’s inevitable that’s what you do and live with every day so I have no problem complaining as you can see about the female doctor. But I try really hard and people are exemplar order really out of their way to make a point to share that with others in whatever way that would benefit them best. And that’s what this is all about I can totally complain, and make things really difficult for some. But I want to really really double Double down on that and say the complete opposite that these are wonderful folks give them a chance

Ecorse Chickenpox Vaccine

The varicella vaccine, sometimes known as the chickenpox vaccine, can help you avoid contracting the disease. By understanding more about what this immunization does and who should get it, you can make an informed health care decision for yourself and your family.

Chickenpox vaccination: what everyone should know

Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Chickenpox is characterized by an itchy, blister-like rash that appears first on the chest, back, and face before spreading to the rest of the body, according to the CDC. Other symptoms include fever and fatigue.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, two doses of the chickenpox vaccine are around 90% effective in preventing chickenpox, which means you could still get the disease after being vaccinated. Children, adolescents, and adults who have never had chickenpox or been inoculated against it should get this vaccination.

Who needs the chickenpox vaccine?

According to the CDC, children, teens, and adults should receive two doses of the chickenpox vaccine.
Children between the ages of 12 and 15 should receive the first dose of the chickenpox vaccine, and children between the ages of four and six should receive the second dose. Children can take the second dose at a younger age if it is given at least three months after the first, according to the CDC.

Those aged 13 and up who have never had chickenpox or been vaccinated should get two doses spaced by at least 28 days. According to the CDC, the chickenpox vaccine is especially important for healthcare workers, teachers, college students, nursing home patients, and international travelers.
Consult your doctor to see if you need the chickenpox vaccine based on your current health situation.

Who should not get the chickenpox vaccine?

You don't need the vaccine if you show evidence of immunity against chickenpox, according to the CDC. Immunity is demonstrated, among other things, by being born in the United States before 1980 and having a confirmed diagnosis of chickenpox.

According to the CDC, the following people should not obtain the chickenpox vaccine:

  • Those who have suffered a life-threatening reaction to the chickenpox vaccine or any of its components.
  • Those who are moderately or severely ill when their chickenpox immunization appointment is scheduled.
  • Women who are expecting children.

Certain patients should see their doctors before getting the chickenpox vaccine. According to the CDC, this includes:

  • Those who have an illness of the immune system, such as HIV or AIDS.
  • Those who have cancer or are being treated for cancer with radiation or medicines.
  • Those who have received a blood transfusion recently.

Two types of chickenpox vaccines

Two types of chickenpox vaccines are now approved for use in the United States. The vaccines' brand names, according to the CDC, are Varivax® and ProQuad®.

Varivax®

Varivax® contains only the chickenpox vaccination. Adults, teenagers, and children aged 12 months and up are the only ones who can get this vaccine.

ProQuad®

ProQuad® is a vaccine that includes the chickenpox vaccine as well as immunizations for measles, mumps, and rubella. This vaccination is only approved for children ages 12 months to 12 years, according to the CDC.

Getting vaccinated after you are exposed to chickenpox

If you have been exposed to chickenpox, the CDC recommends getting vaccinated within three to five days after contact. It goes on to state that you should get two doses of the vaccine even if you've been exposed for more than five days. Each of these dosages should be separated by at least 28 days.

Childcare and school chickenpox vaccine requirements

If you have been exposed to chickenpox, the CDC recommends getting vaccinated within three to five days after contact. It goes on to state that you should get two doses of the vaccine even if you've been exposed for more than five days. Each of these dosages should be separated by at least 28 days.

Your healthcare practitioner can discuss whether or not your children should get the chickenpox vaccine with you in greater detail based on your family's religious and philosophical beliefs, as well as their medical history.

How can parents pay for the chickenpox vaccine?

The chickenpox vaccination is covered by most health insurance policies, according to the CDC. If your health insurance plan does not cover the cost of your children's chickenpox immunization, the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program may be able to help. The CDC recommends contacting VFC directly to see if you're qualified for financial aid through this program.
