★★★★★3.8 (30)- ★★★★★Amanda DickensonGoogle
Don't really know the criteria on which to rate the Health Department. I just know I have been going off and on for 20+ years and the staff have always been very helpful and patient. Other than for WIC I haven't had many medical things done there but the ones I have the nurse was very informative.

Horrible, they only care about your money. I went there and paid $40 to get a prescription refill that they refuse to call in. This prescription is life or death for me to take and they do not care. If I call to ask about it the phone always "disconnects." If they can't get a prescription refill right then how can anyone trust them for anything else.

Staff is friendly. Nurse practitioner Nikki Realin is professional and goes out of her way to help. I never have to wait beyond my appointment time.

I’m usually seen by Dr. Bolton, and a nurse practitioner, I believe her name is Nicky. Everyone there have always been very polite and kind. The wait time I would say is average compared to going a Doctor’s office. Overall service is good no complaints
