I think we all go into this place with "needs" hoping to get met and sometimes that's not what happens and we get frustrated. And today I had that experience. But at the same time the team members at HHS is doing the best they can and trying to help everyone the best they can. I truly appreciate them being calm and as helpful as possible. They answered my questions and helped me get everything taken care of so for that I give them a good review. Thank you for being patient.
