Had to wait outside in the cold before entering. The employees are really professional and efficient.

This place is a joke. They have given me nothing but run around I JUST WANT A COVID SHOT. You seem to give the appearance that you want people vacinated but then you won't give vaccines. I just want a shot! I know you want high number of death but I don't want it to be me

Went here to pick up my son’s birth certificate and it was a pretty straight forward process. I had to make an appointment but I saw people also being able to do walk ins. The buildings are somewhat hard to identify as their signs are the most informative but as far as government buildings go, this isn’t terrible

Me and my family went to a family event that was in the Kettleman City Park and most of the nurses and staff were friendly. Except one nurse who could have attended us better. She came off as rude and flaky.
