Had a cold sore throat severely fatigued. Not feeling better but not terrible I called and was offered an appointment in about an hour but it’s so close I just walked in . I was attended to quickly and taken for check in within 20 minutes . Then by a very professional nurse assistant. Next Joseph the PA/Doc quickly assessed my story and did a thorough physical tested me for flu strep and Covid came back and said I had Covid. Offered the best antiviral treatment. Also offered symptom tx. Didn’t think I needed but he said won’t hurt. So glad he did because they helped me sleep!!this was th best care!! The right tests the right diagnosis the right meds !! You are truly blessed to have such a great crew !!! Joseph is an exceptional provider!!!

Made appt and waited about an hour after that time to be seen. NP did not seem interested in prescribing meds for my kids who were coughing up brown phlegm and have had audible bubbling/crackling when they lie down. I asked—am I confused? Is coughing up brown not an indicator that they need antibiotics? She confirmed that it is, but not in their case because “they’ve been coughing for so long.” Make it make sense. Staff super friendly and efficient. Will not go back because of quality of medical care.
