They sent a notification for n appointment but never sent anything to let us know that they will be closed that day! Pretty messed up!

I went to the Drive-thru event held on Nov 8, 2022. I was pleasantly surprised how smoothly it went. My daughter and I were there to get our Flu shots & Covid boosters. The whole process took about a half hour. It made it very easy because I have a problem walking. the staff was very professional and courteous.

Had a wonderful experience with the travel clinic. Went in for a few vaccines, the nurse Lisa was very nice and knowledgeable and made me feel at ease!

I was scheduled to be seen within a week from calling for a women’s dr appointment. I just got a standard exam and breast exam. A very kind doctor who’s name I’m forgetting noticed a strange mole on my back and went out of her way to give me a dermatology referral so I wouldn’t have to jump thru hoops and get my primary dr to do that. I was able to see the dermatologist within 2 weeks and they biopsied the mole and found precancerous melanoma cells. I had surgery yesterday to remove the root of the mole and surrounding cells. I’m in some pain but I’m so greatful this dr caught this before it turned into cancer. I wish I remembered her name so I could thank her! Very good drs here at this office!

Had breast exam, pap test, and other tests. Everyone involved was very professional and made me comfortable. Dr. gave me a referrel for a mammogram due to lumps. I appreciate their caring and hard work!
