You will not need an appointment to get your TB testing done at our clinic.
Most TB tests are $50. The cost of the serum is waived with a written referral from a licensed physician for certain medical circumstances such as diagnostics and pre-biologics testing.
Please review the OFFICE HOURS and CLINIC ACCESS pages to help prepare for your visit.
PROTECTIVE MASKS will be provided and MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES WHILE INSIDE OUR OFFICE
TB Testing requires two visits:
Planting: The first visit is to plant the serum on the forearm by intradermal injection.
Reading: The second visit is 48 hours after the planting unless otherwise noted below. The reading is an in-person physical examination of the forearm to check for any reaction and to receive documentation.
