The people here are so friendly! I went for a Covid PCR test and it was so fast and smooth! These people have health care down to a science, pun intended! Thank you!

I went in for lactation counseling, I was told I didn't need to bring the baby who was the one feeding. A random employee asked me if I was breast feeding, I answered, she left, another lady asked the same thing. I got no counseling at all. Not surprised as most of the workers were complaining about how others didn't show up to work.

Honestly haven't had any problems the entire time I've used them. Everytime I go staff is friendly, very timely, and even when I've missed an appointment they've easily rescheduled. If I'm being frank it's the people in the lobby that don't know how to act. Need to start teaching ur kids to sit down. Then some of y'all are 350 wearing crop tops. Like be fr, y'all have other things to worry about.

If I could give this place zero stars I would. What is the point of having a health clinic if you wont help people? Not everyone can take off of work for an appointment so walk ins are necessary. Thanks for not actually caring about people.

In my experience the ladies were always kind & helpful here. A few rallied together to help figure out what else I needed and where to go to get identification verifications, etc.; getting phone numbers or directions, and they took their time. The ladies in the back were kind while my daughter toughed out 4 shots, 2 in each arm, saving the worst for last. No reward though:/. Like a sticker or sweet would be nice. Heck, you could give anyone of my children a neon band-aid & they'd be happy, and then I wouldn't feel the need to get a kids meal with a toy;). Overall, a pleasant experience.
