Today was the worst experience and feeling I’ve had at the Benton health Department my appointment time was 8:20 am I arrived at 8:28 there where two people ahead of me I signed the sign in sheet two people came in after me that was called to be seen before me I sat in the waiting area patiently finally after a whole hour of waiting and the only one in the waiting area I go to the window to ask why haven’t I been called yet one of the ladies say the other lady is checking me in the other lady say no I’m answering the phone you would think after seeing I was the only person in the waiting area someone would have ask if I have been seen or need help I went back to the window and asked if there was a manager available I spoke with her and explain and showed her the sign in book where I was skipped just to be told they had other appointments after a hour and thirty minutes I was called to the back the nurse who seen me said she seen where it was being processed for a while and was wondering what was going on cause she had no patients I missed a interview I had at 10:30 and waited a hour and thirty minutes with me being the only one in the waiting area because the color of my skin I have heard about saline county but today I have seen for myself racism still exists there even if you have an appointment you will be put last!

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Amber and Connor for helping me get my birth certificate. I was late, but they saw my desperate situation and they took mercy on me. Not only did they save me, but they also did it with such kindness and with a smile. So refreshing to see young people working hard while simultaneously providing exceptional customer service.

Had a really wonderful experience here today for my WIC appointment! The people at the check in desk were extremely sweet and helpful. My nurse Ashlee was also super great! She made us feel so comfortable, gave me great tips and went above and beyond to make sure I have all the tools and information I need to take care of my baby to help him thrive. Thank you Saline County Health Department!

I took my daughter for routine vaccinations and our experience was excellent. We had a scheduled appointment. There was virtually no wait. The front desk staff member was very friendly, and the nurse administering the vaccines was informative and kind. I am grateful for such an easy visit.
