This clinic is rated highly in reviews for their friendly staff

Friendly Staff

At different times we were helped through three semi-emergencies - a 15-stitch leg wound, a chemical eye burn, and a case of pneumonia. The care was excellent and effective and follow-up was comforting. A wonderful community resource.

Short Wait Time

I went to Express Med for a possible eye infection on a recent Saturday morning I waited no more that a few minutes before being called in. The treating professional I saw was Iris who was very thorough and correctly diagnosed and treated my condition. I was very happy overall with the service provided. I would recommend this highly. Note: My Salem PCP's office ONLY recommends this walk-in clinic, according to my wife. :-)

Short Wait Time

I came to Parkland Urgent Care with flu like symptoms. The facility was very clean and there was no wait time. Dawn at the front desk made the check in process both friendly and quick. Nurse Ann performed the initial exam not only efficiently but with an excellent bedside manner. Nurse Practitioner Holly Cabell explained her diagnosis and treatment options in a clear style and allowed me the time to pepper her with a number of questions. While she was professional, she also made sure you knew that your questions and concerns were important to her. This is the best urgent care facility I ever visit. The staff deserves a 5 star review.

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.
