The lady at window 12 thought it was ok to laugh at me when I told her how uncomfortable I was with her holding my debit card when they have always took the payment before handing you the birth certificate.. then proceeded to interrupt me when I was explaining important information about the paper I filled out !!! DONT WORK SERVING THE PUBLIC IF YOUR GUNNA BE DISRESPECTFUL ... IM SO UNCOMFORTABLE I WILL NOT BE BACK I WILL GO TO ANTHER CITY JUST TO GO TO THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT THATS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!! I just wanted my birth certificate I KNOW NOT EVERYONE IN THIS BUILDING IS RUDE but one bad apple will spoil the whole batch

Amazing staff and great doctors and nurses. First time going there and will continue to. First time having a APRN look at me actually care about what was going on with me without rushing me out. A+++

I needed a last-minute TB test and went to the Putnam County Health Department for a walk-in. Although I was given an appointment for the next day, the staff was very welcoming and friendly. The service was efficient, and the cost was only $20, which is very affordable. While I usually prefer other options, this facility is definitely a great backup when insurance becomes complicated.

The NP Jennifer there is soooooo amazing. Her patient care and service methods are phenomenal. She didnt make me feel like I was visiting a doctor. It felt like she cared about me individually as a person. She explained things during my exam and helped me understand why previous meds werent working and why she felt what she prescribed would help and im doing better now. I dont normally leave reviews but she was so helpful and sometimes when you go into a busy place its hard to feel seen or heard and shes really good at that. I didnt wait very long either so her nurses are pretty quick on time management as well.
