Ashley was extremely rude and sarcastic with me when I asked where to get covid test free, I do not have medical insurance, due to lack of employment and I'm not eligible for free medical insurance. Basically because I'm in my 40'd and single noone cares if I just drop dead is what I was just told

As a recovered addict/alcoholic this place saved my life but the 1st step is admitting, the great folks here will do whatever it takes to help, if I was willing to accept the help. Thanks be to Maddie in particular but with all the help of all the workers there. You are the real heroes, I am forever grateful. D.O.S.: 7/25/23 one day at a time thank you God.

Both my husband & I needed our Birth Certs. I needed mine within an hour so this was absolutely amazingly painless! I was very impressed with politeness from the two individuals working. Sean and Shannon were so great today and have a very good vibe going on. Again, I was extremely impressed by how easy and fast the process was to get both our Birth Certificates! Extremely FAST!

Came here for a birth cert and the people were very helpful. I stopped by some of the other offices while I was there just to see what they offered.
