Called several numbers. No answer on any. Left message. No call back.

At the COVID Vaccine distribution at Los Fresno’s. Line up was well planned. Port-o-potties were disgusting. Not enough, filthy, un believable that there were only 6 available. Not being maintained, a real health hazard!!

They were really not friendly at all. I had an appointment at 12:30 but i got there ealry. I had to pee on a cup like usually. I wasnt able too. So i too a little long to do that. They put in a room to wait for the doctor and give me information and when she came in she had this look like im taking her time away or she just wanted me get it over with. I didnt like that at all

Came here for my brother because he needed vaccines for school. This is the only place that had them without an appointment. I dreaded and reluctant coming here because these places usually for low income families and have a stigma for usually being rude. Surprisingly they were very nice. Nicer than any private clinic I’ve ever been. The lady in the front I can tell she’s been working there a while was super nice I forgot her name. Also, another lady who administered the vaccine. She said she was helping for today and worked in the TB department . Great quality care!

I’m so thankful, I was desperate to find a shelter to take in 11 baby lab puppies that were living in a field, the mother dog had been killed by a car , the supervisor Ram is taking all these puppies in and said they have a very high adoption rate, I’ve never seen a shelter so clean and organized as this place, all I can say is thank you thank you!! No other shelters would help, this place is truly a blessing . Thank you Mr Ram, you rock!
