Reviews
"The women working at the health department are very kind and considerate of your privacy."
"I have never had no problem with the staff they are always professional."
"Awesome service at the front desk! The ladies are amazing! Nurses are sweet, caring and compassionate! Best health department I’ve ever visited and I’ve been around.. lol No appt is necessary which is super convenient when something needs to get done fast! The wait is little to none! My daughter was deathly scared of needles and the nurses helped her through it and she did it! I’m glad we were able to get her fist shots since kindergarten at this location! They really helped her to overcome her fear!"
"Fantastic!! I went for my second vaccination dose for the coronavirus protection. The process took less than ten minutes from the time of my arrival and my departure. The staff was friendly,helpful and very professional."
"I have been there twice. The first time was to get a medication for a friend who had bed bugs (no appointment.) They told me he would have to come in himself but knowing he wouldn't, I pretended I had the ailment too by scratching. They knew I was pretending but gave me the medication anyway. I thought that was very kind. The second time there, I brought a friend who had very little money & a vaginal irritation. At first they wouldn't see her because she was embarrassed & was telling them she had a urinary tract infection. She needed to have something contagious (I assumed), so I interrupted & said she might have an s.t.d. They put her in a room immediately. It turned out she had hepatitis. She became hysterical & nearly fainted. A nurse came & got me to calm my friend down, which was definitely the right thing to do. They gave me the information she would need, & the prescription so she wouldn't lose it. So, based on these 2 visits spaced about 8 years apart, I would say the health department is staffed by very compationate, understanding people. It is efficiently run, low priced, & not crowded."
