This clinic is rated highly in reviews for their clean offices

Sparkling Clean

I was greeted by two staff members. The patient care assistant was professional and friendly, and perhaps of even more importance a good listener. Courtney the NP, was pleasant, friendly, caring and listened to my problems as if I was the only concern. I would definitely go back for care, and I would recommend the facility to others if they have a healthcare need.

I went to this walk in clinic after work today because my right side of face had been swollen for a week. It was not getting better thank goodness I went to your clinic and got instant care. From receptionist to nurse to great nurse practitioner Mrs Bauer she diagnosed my right ear was infected and gave me proper medical care. Mrs.Bauer was super confident and knew exactly what problem was . This you don't see much anymore. Kudos to her and her care team. Impressive this day and time. This is by far the best walk in clinic I have ever been too. Truly. So lucky so near by. I will only go to this clinic from now on. They saved me before when I was misdiagnosed by my on PCP Bet yet NPA found problem and I got relieve. Thank you so much. It was a great visit. Gives one peace of mind for sure I will certainly be back. Great job guys. Thank you. ❤️

Dr. Manzer has always taken time to listen to our physical complaints, and been very supportive. I never feel rushed through, because unlike many doctors, he doesn't have a quota he has to meet. I have been a nurse for over 30 years and I have complete trust in him. If he doesn't know what exactly is wrong, he will send us to someone that specializes in the field.

About Tetanus Shots

A tetanus shot is used to prevent tetanus, also known as lockjaw. Tetanus is a bacterial infection that can lead to painful muscle spasms, and oftentimes, death. Adults in the US have to be vaccinated against tetanus because there's currently no cure for it and roughly 10 to 20 percent of victims die from tetanus. Symptoms of tetanus come from a toxin produced by tetanus bacteria and usually begin appearing about a week after the infection occurs. The most common symptom is muscle stiffness that begins in the jaw and spreads to the neck, arms, legs, or abdomen, but other symptoms include trouble swallowing, headache, fever and sweating, irritability and restlessness, high blood pressure, palpitations, and muscle spasms in the face.

It's important to get treated for tetanus as soon as you know you're infected because if it's not treated quickly enough, you can die from suffocation. Tetanus shots are given in the shoulder muscle. If you've never had a tetanus shot before, you might be given a three-dose primary series. You'll get the first dose as a three-in-one combination called Tdap that prevents tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), and diphtheria (Td). The other two doses will usually be a dual vaccine and you'll receive them over a 7 to 12 month period. You should receive a tetanus vaccine between 2 months and 6 years old, as well as a teenager and an adult. Pregnant women might need a tetanus shot during the third trimester of pregnancy.
