TB Testing at Quick Phys Medical — What’s Included
TB testing helps determine whether your immune system has been exposed to the bacteria that cause tuberculosis. At Quick Phys Medical, we offer two testing options to meet employment, school, healthcare, and other screening requirements.
Your TB testing visit may include:
- Tuberculin Skin Test (TST/Mantoux): A clinician places a small amount of testing solution just beneath the skin of your forearm. You’ll return 48-72 hours later so a licensed provider can evaluate and document your results.
- QuantiFERON-TB Gold Blood Test: A clinician performs a blood draw during a single visit with no return appointment required. It is often recommended for patients who have received the BCG vaccine or cannot return for a skin test reading.
- Official Documentation: Receive signed, written results that can be submitted for employment, school enrollment, healthcare credentialing, and other required screenings.
- Same-Day Walk-In Availability: We accept walk-ins based on clinician availability.
Who Needs a TB Test?
You may need a TB test if you are:
- Starting a new job in healthcare, education, childcare, or another field that requires TB screening
- Enrolling in a school, college, or training program
- Completing immigration or visa requirements
- Due for an annual employee health screening
- Asked to provide TB clearance by your employer, school, or licensing organization
