Tick Bite & Lyme Disease Detection at AFC Urgent Care Cedar Grove
Tick Bite & Lyme Disease Detection in Cedar Grove, NJ
The warmer months between April and September are known for popular outdoor activities such as hiking and camping. Being in the outdoors can be fun, but the fun can stop when you get bit by a tick. At AFC Urgent Care Cedar Grove, we provide On-Site Testing for Lyme Disease and perform tick removal procedures on a Walk-In Basis.

- Bull’s Eye Pattern Rash
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Swelling

You can reduce your risks of catching Lyme Disease by:
