HEP C Testing and Treatment in Tampa Bay
Hepatitis C (HCV) is a serious but treatable liver infection. If left untreated, it can lead to liver damage or cancer. Early detection is key, and at Metro Inclusive Health, we make it easy with FREE, rapid Hepatitis C testing at all our locations—no appointment needed.
Why Get Tested for Hepatitis C?
Many people with Hepatitis C don’t experience symptoms for years, which makes testing essential. Here’s why you should get tested:
- Silent but Serious: Hepatitis C often has no symptoms until it causes significant liver damage.
- CDC Recommendations: The CDC advises all adults get tested at least once in their lifetime.
- How It Spreads: HCV is transferred through blood-to-blood contact, including: past drug use (even one time), unsterilized tattoo supplies or piercings, and medical procedures before 1992.
Early detection can save lives—and treatment is easier than ever.
