April Greener was an extremely good Nurse Practitioner. Just overall very nice. Extremely knowledgeable and legitimately wanted to help me with my hurt back. Much better care then I’ve received in the past she wanted to help instead of shrugging me off and prescribing me ibuprofen.

We love April as a health care provider. April is professional, caring and very through. My daughter receives great care form April. I couldn't really ask for a better health care provider locally. All of the services that are offered to our community through the health department are great. They are great for primary care appointments, flu, strep and covid testing, labs at a great price. Also something every young person, especially female, needs to know about is the services the health department offers for free or reduced cost contraceptives and family planning. This is such a great resource for our community.
