We offer Tuberculosis (TB) testing in our clinic every Tuesday. Please call 419-282-4357 for an appointment. You must return to the clinic on Thursday to have your test read. TB testing costs $40. 

TB is a bacterial infection that usually attacks the lungs, but can also attack any part of the body such as the kidney, spine and brain. Because not everyone infected with TB becomes sick, there are two TB-related conditions: latent TB infection (LTBI) and TB disease. 

We recommend using the Tuberculosis Screening Form to identify those who may have higher risk factors which would indicate a need for Mantoux TB testing. Please note some employers or educational institutions choose to mandate TB testing. 

The following individuals should complete the Tuberculosis Screening Form:

• All new students and new staff entering a formal school system
• Older students transferring from another school district
• Foreign exchange students
• Students new to a university campus
• Certain hospital employees (annual screening)
