Does planned parenthood do tb tests?
Need to get a TB test for my visa application. Can health clinics (like Planned Parenthood in other countries) provide TB testing here in India, or should I go elsewhere?

Some of their health centers might offer TB testing, but not all of them do. I had severe lung issues back in 2021 and delayed getting the right help, which made things so much worse. Please go to a proper chest specialist or a big hospital directly to get tested safely.

I can only speak from my own experience when I had to get a TB clearance certificate for my visa. I checked with them but ended up going to a local diagnostic lab because it was faster. You might want to call your nearest center and ask if they have the skin test or blood test available.

Don't worry, TB is completely manageable if detected. Yes, they do offer TB screening at many locations, but it depends on the specific clinic. Give them a quick ring first so you don't waste a trip, and take care of yourself, okay?

Actually, they do offer TB skin tests at several of their clinics, but services vary by location. Just jump on their website or call the nearest center directly to verify. It is the quickest way to get an accurate answer.
