I went for a birth certificate & just a couples minutes before they stopped and wasn't 3:30 yet but she was unprofessional & saying something I couldn't understand & moving her hands all crazy. Some people dont belong in the front . I just walked out

This is a little indirectly related to this Department. Receiving phone calls sometimes 3 times a week from a woman claiming to be with New Mexico Department of Health. Sounds like a recording at first, but is a live person requesting that I take a survey and will send a 25 dollar gift card for Target. I assume this is a scam due to some of the phone calls taking place on a Saturday with an Espanola phone number....I don't live anywhere near Espanola. Ive told this woman more than a few times to stop calling and have even tried reporting the issue. I cannot be the only person receiving these phone calls and if its legit, then its in really bad taste to harrass residents of New Mexico all in the name of a survey. If its a scam then put a stop to it asap.

I went to get my sons birth certificate and I was in and out in under 30 minutes. The ladies that helped me today were very friendly, very nice and very quick. Nice clean place and clean restrooms.

The NM DOH website offers online registration (required) for a covid test at the Roswell DOH office. I have registered before online. Now, there is no online link for testing at this location. I know we're all in this together but I must say that the bureaucratic and governmental bungling throughout this crisis, just gets worse and worse. These people are simply incompetent.
