Excellent care and very complete examination. I think the doctor diagnosed the illness correctly and prescribed the right medicine for recovery and heeling.

The care we got for my friend yesterday could not have been better. Everyone, from registration to PA to Xray was wonderfully kind. Twice the staff expressed sympathy that my friend had hurt his leg in an accident. They had everything--Xray (read within 15 minutes), no waiting (as opposed to 5 hour wait at another walk in clinic), no hassle with paperwork (accepted my friend even though he had no ID). I will never again go to a different walk in clinic. I will tell everyone about this clinic and the care my friend received. Great job folks!

August 22nd 2021 my first visit to Bluffton redimed was awesome the receptionist was delightful to deal with the nurse was very knowledgeable and courteous and cheerful the physician assistant Joe was just wonderful he has a great passion for his career everyone was so very caring and professional yet very down to earth.
