The PEOPLE make the PLACE!!! They made the Christmas gift list last year! I have been going over the course of several years and have developed a relationship that's unique. I like, well love my doctors and the visit. I gain knowledge, am given smiles, education, care/service, and the feeling of have good people in my corner! Stacy, Bon, Kaitlyn & Amy has made this a 100% COMFORTABLE & SAFE place to deal with my sex health care! If the county truly cares about their staff this group of woman deserve raises (more than just inflationary) there merit is excellent and ideal, plus bonuses. DON'T LOSE GREATNESS BY BEING CHEAP! Highly recommend this place to anyone seeking sex health clinic! I'd go to them for anything they offer!!!

Quick and kind service for birth certificates! Note, though, that Google Maps may direct you to the back entrance, which is only for the Clinic and drop offs. Make sure you go to the entrance off Rt 18.

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. Spoke with several employees and ended up on a phone call with Ryan who was absolutely amazing and took his time to explain everything I needed to know. Thanks Ryan, I appreciate your service and kind attitude.
