Friendly Staff

Came in to the urgent care with an online appointment scheduled. I have been here several times. I have insurance, which was verified by the office, but the front desk girl said I was required to have a credit card on file but couldn’t tell me why. She did say it would be on file in your system for FIVE years. Not only does that seem to be a crazy ask with verified insurance, she could explain why the card was needed or why it would be on file for years. Makes me question things for sure…. The provider was great but first impression needs improvement.

My appointment was fine until they tried to call in my prescription. They sent to a pharmacy that’s closed. Then I called in to get help and an hour later I’ve heard nothing.

I can say without doubt this Urgent Care facility has made my life better and healthier. If you are sick, you can walk in and get fast, courteous, excellent attention to you illness at very reasonable cost. I have been treated there for sinus infections, flu, shingles, even a no wait minor surgery for a cyst! Treatment has always been top notch. The staff are super dedicated to providing treatment (rather than piling on useless tests) and have always been friendly and courteous.

the office personnel are very nice and knowledgeable. the wait wasn't bad, depending on number of patients. I have been several times and if they think you need the hospital, they let you know. Their care was great!! They are usually busy, so I know there will be a wait. We depend on our Med access here in Roxboro.

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.
