This is the best urgent care I have been to. Unfortunately urgent cares are usually notorious for subpar healthcare, long wait times, and rude, unfriendly staff. I have been here a few times as a patient and brought my children in when we have had emergencies or on the weekends when we couldn’t get in with our normal doctors. This is the friendliest and most helpful staff.

Had a really bad case of poison ivy and couldn't take the itch anymore. Went to Tri-County because it was close to home. What a great decision! The staff are professional, kind and caring. The doctor was wonderful and compassionate. My new go-to for urgent care!
