I came to MD Urgent Care with back spasms at 8 pm Sunday thankful they were open until 9. There was no one in the waiting room. The receptionist was very friendly. When Pashi came to get me, she realized I needed help because of my spasms. She was so kind, patient, friendly and helpful during my whole visit. Dr. Flores was very thorough with his exam of my back while Pashi helped me. I had a positive experience at MD Urgent Care from the moment I entered the building.
