Impossible to get hold of anyone for general question

They need to get their act together. They waste people's time and treat people like complete idiots.

Worst health department of any county I've ever lived in, by far. It's unreasonably unhelpful, to the point that I've considered moving on healthcare reasons alone.

We went here for information and travel vaccinations today. We were lucky to find nurse Samantha Busener there to assist us. She was very knowledgeable and great to work with. She's a terrific asset to this office. A thoroughly pleasant experience.
