Had to come in for some shots and the service waa great. Front desk staff was quick and helpful, and the nurses were kind and friendly. No one likes getting shots, but they made the experience a lot easier.

On Nov 30 2022 I received services from the Sumter Co Health Dept. for the first time. I certainly appreciate the service that I received. I give my appreciation to two employees Channin T. and Juanita N. who was so professional and it appeared that they really wanted to help me. Thank You Very Much!
