My husband had an appointment this morning..... The nurse that took his vitals and information was great and talked to us the whole time. Never treated us just another appointment! The NP is the best! When we realized who each other was, just made it better....

I was really shocked how a county clinic could provide such personal and warm service. I had to get bloodwork done and I have an extreme phobia of getting blood taken, but Maggie was so very very comforting that I made it through just fine! I barely, BARELY even felt the needle and she talked with me about my hobbies, etc and kept me well distracted. After the test was done she brought me snacks and drinks. Heather is a knowledgeable, professional and thorough APRN. Carrie was very warm and welcoming and even made it a point to call me 3 minutes before they close for the results of my bloodwork so I could rest easy and not worry. Finally, Stephanie at the front desk is always very friendly and kind when you call and/or sign in - you always feel like you are talking with someone who cares about you.

Getting birth certificate copies, this location is awesome. They are quick and very friendly. Definitely nothing like Clarksville. I'll make this drive everytime I need to go to the health department for any reason!
