Excellent care. Dr. Williamson listened to my daughter’s concerns, evaluated all of them and then carefully explain the what and why and how to treat.  He could not have done a better job!

This clinic never disappoints!! From the front desk to the nurses in the back, always treated like family-regardless if you have insurance or self pay. They always get my family better.

While I cannot speak for everyone at the clinic, this review is for Dr Dabbs, Dr Coon, and Rachel Sledge. For more than a decade, this urgent care has been my go to for most illnesses, injuries, and referrals. I highly respect all three of these professionals, and I don't believe I have ever been let down by them for any reason. Level of care has been excellent, and (at least what I get billed for after insurance) has been far more reasonable than almost any other medical facility I have dealt with. While the wait time can be slightly challenging, this is offset by the Drs being patient and answering any questions that might arise. I have never once, for any reason, felt rushed when it comes to treatment, and two separate times that thoroughness found a different underlying issue to what symptoms presented. The staff has always been friendly and courteous, and while it is not the fanciest of surroundings, or wait area, it is clean with more than enough comfortable seating. I would recommend this clinic, and in particular these three professionals, with enthusiasm and trust in their abilities.

Very friendly and we’re so good with my 6-year old. They pretended to give her stuffed animal a covid test to make her feel more comfortable before she got hers.

I live out of town and needed a rapid covid test. They were open Sunday and able to take me. The phone call initially left me wondering, three girl who answered the phone did not seem friendly. When I got there everyone was super nice and I was taken care of quickly. My test was negative😊

The only thing I didn’t like when a nurse told me she was going to give a COVID test and flu.I know didn’t have COVID it have do with my chest and throat and face feeling it swelling up. Why do they think you have COVID everytime you sick. I have COVID last year I know I didn’t have it this time . I know my body. Thank you !!!!!

I came in for a Rapid covid test. Everyone was really nice, especially the lady and the front desk and the lady that took my vitals. Service was quick and the office was very clean.

Had to get a covid test because I was exposed at work. Kat was awesome, quick and super nice! The rest of the staff was great too. My first time here but would highly recommend them!!

It was incredible! I was so nervous for my 4 year old to have a covid test but his nurse (Janette) was fabulous. She even had a popsicle for him after the test. We will certainly be back!!

I took two children to get tested for COVID in order to return back to daycare, staff was very friendly and my children did good with the test. Staff member was very nice and was not as ruff as I have heard about other places.

Whoever the guy was that gave our test was awesome. LOVE seeing action out of healthcare workers like that. Attentive, friendly, caring, compassionate. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Give that man a promotion.

- Verified patient on 12/14

Even though I’m so sick and tested positive for COVID the doctor and staff is amazing I highly recommend this urgent care! I promise you won’t regret it!

- Verified patient on 2/2

I came In cause i am sick but had to pay $50 for covid test that was negative and then told it's 60 to 70 percent accurate when I knew it was a cold I had then she refused to give me a steroid shot. If the test is not that accurate then don't offer them or make us pay for them. We go to the doctor to feel better not to get changed for all your testing and you tell me to buy over the counter medication if I would have known all this I would have went somewhere else and felt like they wanted to make me well not make me pay for covid , flu and office visit and tell me to buy over the counter medicine.

This was my first experience using this testing site, and I have to say it was the FRIENDLIEST, fastest, hassle-free experience I’ve had in trying to get a vivid test! So very appreciative 🙏🏻

- Verified patient on 11/4

Given that the wait time was unusually long due to covid issues, I felt very grateful to have the service available in Picayune to get covid testing so easily. Thank you to the staff and doctors who has been dealing with this pandemic for such a long time.

- Verified patient on 12/28

I love this urgent care it’s the best! Took a covid test with only a 15 minute wait after test but went in for a sinus infection . Made me feel better to know . Dr is always amazing and they understand my nausea problem due to sinus issues ! I love them !

- Verified patient on 4/8

Need more staff. Should have at least a practitioner, front desk person, and nurse. Using the front desk person to conduct admin and then do vitals, and help with running labs is not efficient. Using the NP to see patients and helping with labs is not efficient. A nurse should be doing vitals, running labs, conducting Covid test, etc. The staff did a great job and were very professional. They are just stretched too thin. The official “check-in” time is not the same as the “arrival” time. We sat in the waiting room for over an hour before our official “check-in” time.

This was the second time bringing my daughter for the rapid covid test. No matter how busy they are the staff is always super nice and professional!

- Verified patient on 2/15

This is a great service. Diego who assisted us with our test was super friendly and very knowledgeable. Made my mother very comfortable and was very patient with instructions. I recommend this place to one and all. Thanks for helping the community

Med tech very nice, and Alexandria was very easy to communicate with. Explained reasons for the medications prescribed and suggestions for a COVID test. I hope you keep her!!! Alexandria and Linsey are great.

Since I was taking the covud test, I was told to wait in my car and someone will call me. The wait time wasn't too bad, I really the forgot I waiting in my car! I ginally did receive a friendly phone call from the staff. The staff was really friendly and the doctor was professional and of course the staff was too! I made it a little comical because the test took me by surprise a little bit. I think I made the doctor and the nurse day! Lol!

They can also be used to monitor the progression of a disease or a set of diseases.
