How do i get a hepatitis b titer?

Nathan asked:


I’m trying to have a titer test done to see if my hepatitis b vaccine is still effective. I want to know because I will be traveling through SE Asia in a few months and I want to know if I should get a booster. My physician is essentially refusing to order the test, saying that I can’t afford it (even though he won’t tell me the cost). When i tried getting in touch with another physician, i just get passed from one department at their office to another. Does anyone have any suggestions?
