I called to get an update on the Corona virus vaccine and, while I realized they're getting a lot of phone calls, the person I talked with was kind and understanding and gave me all the information I needed

Always had a wonderful experience with the nurses and staff there. One nurse in particular is amazing for shots, even for my sister who is terrified of shots. Great place for accessible, cheap healthcare.

BEWARE! I had my second vaccine shot for COVID in August 2021 and the arm I had the shot in goes numb 5-6 times every day since the shot. I called the Health Department where I received the shot and they told me to call my doctor, there is nothing they can do; by they conversation I would say they do not care.

I received my COVID vaccine at the Monroe County fairgrounds and I was completely impressed by the amount of workers, level of organization and the professional/friendliness of the staff. No question it was crowded but the level of process and organization was obvious and commendable. Thank you!!!
