Came for a COVID test and the staff is amazing. Professional, pleasant and working fast. Normally wouldn't have thought to leave a review of a government office but these folks need kudos for a job well done. Thank you!

My husband took his daughters (ages 22 and 23) in to the “health department” to see about seeing a doctor since they just moved here from out of state. Woman at the window was RUDE. My husband was harshly informed that they are a “women’s services only” facility. Wondering why it’s called a “health department” if they only see women? Ended up going over to Medlink Banks and got way better service.

I was seen in this office in January of this year. They sent me to have a mammogram done which is routine at my age. But it showed serval lympnodes in both breast and I was assured by the nurse that this is the best thing to do is to wait 6months and do it again that she knows how I feel. She even tells me to come in and have pap soon....at the end of July so we can get the mammogram scheduled for august..so I do just what she said do...when I call and make my appointment with them to get this done....the nurse tells me that they need to wait till August now...which would put me a month late for this most important exam. 0I mean come on I come from a family we're all of them diagnosed with deadly cancer...admediantlly family not distant...they were made aware of this too and yet I feel like they are screwing me around cause they don't know how to do their job or don't care and either one is bad for the public...love to hear from anyone else that has had a problem with this nurse

Dental staff was amazing with my 3 year old son. The assistant Jessica made the experience a stress free time for him. He was terrified at a previous dentist and they couldn't get anything done. Banks County was able to get a cleaning and x-rays done with NO TEARS! Dr.Webber is extremely helpful as well. I highly recommend them.

Employees are polite and seem to care about their patients. They go through all your paperwork with you, but it takes awhile to do that. Plan on being there 1 to 1 1/2 hours for female annual checks.
