I went in not knowing what was wrong, but felt like I was dying. The hospital was slammed with people having the flu, but they got me in fast and checked me out. I ended up in ICU having surgery and on heavy IV antibiotics because I had a kidney infection that went septic. They released me 2 days before Christmas luckily, so I could be home with my 4 children. The care and beside manner was excellent. Thank you for saving my life and getting me back home with my children.

Made an appointment at 1pm for a 4pm time slot. Was seen on time. Very professional and friendly. Afterwards, the nurse sent prescription directly to in-store pharmacy. Received a text in 10 mins that meds were ready for pickup.

Covid testing!! So I have3kids that DON’T like any kind of doctors office not even when it’s a checkup.My middle child was exposed to covid at some point last week and started having some symptoms late at night so we decided to bring him in. The wait was about the same as any urgent clinics&we were able to wait in the car until called. The lady that called, Kim maybe? Was a bit rude and eager to get off the phone. But when told to come in, we were actually met by nurse Jessica and went to room 1 I think. My child was just in tears as to what was going to be done. That changed pretty quickly though.The nurse noticed the fear immediately grabbed some tissues and knelt down beside him. She asked was he nervous &he said yes, the nurse agreed that was okay and said she too was nervous bc this virus is scary, but that’s why he needed a test to see if he was sick. She was SOO patient with him&explained everything she was doing.&they talked about Xbox-&by doing that she was able to get his blood pressure etc AND swab him without a flinch. This mama was AMAZED! GUC is definitely our new urgent care! Although he tested positive, his nurse Jessica was all he talked about. Highly recommend!!!

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.
