Thanks Mr. Modi!

If you possibly can, avoid them. They received 1 star only because the system would not allow me to post with 0 stars. Have no sense of urgency or concern for public health.

Got my COVID booster & my Flu shot at the same time just by asking. They said - sure thing hang on just a minute - took care of the whole deal. Admittedly, I had to wait at the office for a little while to come in and see the med tech but, but same time I would’ve had to of waited at a doctors office. It’s true that this is not the mayo clinic; but, for a small operation that’s noticeably understaffed, these guys do one hell of a job. I’m giving them a great review Because they do good work in spite of everything that’s going against them.
