I came in for an allergic reaction and was seen right away, the check in was simple smooth and the lady was extremely friendly. The nurse was very caring and quick to get the doctor in. The doctor was nice and fast to diagnose and treat. Gave me a steroid shot and medicine for home. Definitely will be coming back here for now on when I or anyone in my family needs to go to urgent care

Wow! We were afraid my mother needed stitches, the staff met us with great hospitality and urgency. The doctor cleaned the wound, bandaged her and sent her on her way in a timely manner. We are incredibly impressed! Thanks for taking such great care of your patients.
