Wow! • Very friendly staff • Straight to the point with their shots If I ever need another shot, I will definitely be coming back here!

Giving 2 stars due to how rude the nurse has been at each visit. Everyone else has been very kind & helpful! The nurse has been extremely judge mental about not breastfeeding. It’s a very personal decision, and a mother should never be shamed about it. The nurse was not helpful at all regarding the baby’s stomach issues. New parents need a kind and helpful environment with professional nurses to help in any way possible. Very disappointing!
